Pangolins possess a spectacular, dense network of diploic veins for brain drainage!
In our latest study, we show that this pattern may also provide rare morphological evidence linking pangolins and carnivorans in the Ferae clade.

Our paper, based on a uniquely large dataset of vertical descent behaviours in arboreal mammals, is published in @elife.bsky.social. The findings offer fresh perspectives on reconstructing postures in early primates.
You can find the accompanying press release here: elifesciences.org/for-the-pres...
#Communiqué 🗞️ Une étude révèle que les primates arboricoles montrent une diversité de stratégies de descentes verticales, avec des postures redressées, contrairement à d’autres mammifères qui descendent majoritairement la tête la première. 🐒
