My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
In 2024 I designed the Ice Age Giants coin series, for the The Royal Mint and the Natural History Museum, London. The first coin to be released featured Mammuthus trogontheri, the steppe mammoth.

This week's #NewBooks at the library: One Step Sideways, Three Steps Forward from @princetonupress that I hope to review in the near future; the second volume of the beautifully illustrated variorum version of the collected fiction of #HPLovecraft from Chiroptera Press (volume 3 is on order); and Mammouth de Durfort, a little memento from my visit a few months ago to the Paris Museum of Natural History about their exceptional mounted #Mammoth skeleton.

Lost Bones #3 (Can't Spot the Bison Teeth for the Gravel)

The discovery of a 50,000-year-old baby mammoth in Siberia is a big boon to researchers.
From NBC News: "The remains were found with no damage to the head, trunk, ears and mouth, according to" researchers.
Damn, @mammoth is shutting down the app and their moth.social server. Super bummed to see this. Mammoth was one of the first big Mastodon projects I saw when I joined for real back in 2021.
I was even on the original TestFlight with the old icon! It kind of indirectly sparked my first attempt at @mastowatch
According to Mastowatch, almost 8,000 people will be looking for a new home

Oh no! I just found out that the app Mammoth, the instance @moth.social and @subclub will be shutting down at the end of January. This is really sad
@mammoth said: "If a community member would like to take over maintaining any of these projects, pls let us know."

The original post was made on Saturday, which is why I had completely missed it. I hope someone will step in to take over...

Were Indigenous Americans feasting on mammoths? A new study suggests the extinct mammal was an important part of their diet, based on a chemical analysis of the bones of an 18-month-old boy who lived 13,000 years ago in what is now the U.S. state of Montana. The findings upended theories that Western Clovis people relied on small game to survive. Read more from @LiveScience
These #mammoth updates are spectacular.
Should we resurrect a woolly mammoth? What would you knit from it’s wool?
