This is the famous pup, Clark. Sadly, he has passed away. I believe I’ve watched him at least 100 times. Rest easy, Clark.

I can’t wait for my copy. Awesome. Congrats @FishDoc1 – at Miami Lakes, FL
So I’ve been sharing photos of Caribbean fishes because my new @JHUPress book with Val Kells and Carole Baldwin came out! I just got my first copy and it’s a beauty! A Field Guide to Coastal Fishes of Bermuda, Bahamas, and the Caribbean Sea a.co/d/9asQP0r

Editorial published @ZoolJLinnSoc Taxonomy is essencial and taxonomists too! Technology is welcome but not a substitute of a science with centuries of study of biodiversity. Cheers to this science and cause. #taxonomy #biodiversity #octocoralFriday #2021

This #TaxonomistAppreciationDay I want to give a shout-out to all the biologists @nmnh who've dedicated their lives to discovering who and what we share this world with. Their work is the foundation upon which all other efforts—from conservation to public health—can happen.

And finishing the year with one more paper! This one the description of a new species of #mesophotic Chromis from the western Atlantic, and done with colleagues from @UW and the @smithsonian. Here is a photo of it in St. Paul's Rocks, Brazil doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.1008…

In addition to studying anatomy, biologists can use X-rays to learn about animal food preferences. When museum specialist Sandra Raredon X-rayed this longnose batfish for the 2012 exhibit “X-ray Vision: Fish Inside Out,” she found a surprise: a stomach full of shells.

Excited to chat about the complicated social life of acorn woodpeckers for @DCAudubon tomorrow! Fighting, cooperating, egg tossing, siblings helping with child care and more!

You don't need an excuse to watch @NationalZoo's panda cam all weekend, but the possibility of a cub is a very good one.
🐼🤞 Our vets detected tissue consistent with fetal development during giant panda Mei Xiang’s ultrasound today. It's too early to tell if the tissue is a viable developing fetus. 🐾 Paws crossed for a healthy cub or cubs. Watch live on the 🖥️ panda cam! s.si.edu/30TUOV9

Tens of thousands work or volunteer for @Smithsonian, helping us become the institution that America needs and deserves. It was a pleasure at our all-staff meeting to chat with Carole Baldwin, chair of @NMNH Dept. of Vertebrate Biology, and connect with our talented community.
