Fossilized Smilodon skeleton at the Utah Museum of Natural History.

Fossilized Smilodon skeleton at the Utah Museum of Natural History.

This Smilodon skeleton displayed at the Utah Museum of Natural History is from the La Brea Tar Pits in California. You can tell because of the dark color of the bones resulting from all those years buried in tar.

Watched a Video about the #LaBreaTarPits and learned that #LaBrea is #Spanish for, well, um, TAR.

So technically the place is called the TAR TAR pits, right?

Can any Spanish speakers confirm this translation?

I climbed this tree when I was 4. I was terrified. I made it 2 feet up. It looked a lot bigger back then.

Smilodon, the sabre-toothed cat, is famously represented by numerous fossils discovered at the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles, California!

Ground sloth skeleton on a pedestal with sign. It reads Harlan's ground sloth
Paramylodon harlani
At around 1,500 pounds and over nine feet in length, the Harlan's ground sloth was considered a medium-sized ground sloth. The largest species could be nearly 20 feet in length! Sloths' powerful arms and claws may have been used to dig roots and tubers (they were herbivores) and for self-protection. The living relatives of these ancient giants include armadillos and small tree sloths.

A look down into Pit 91, “an active fossil dig where scientists are uncovering everything from small plant seeds to giant ground sloths. From the Viewing Station, you can see deep into Pit 91 where thousands of bones of extinct animals like the western horse, saber-tooth cat, and dire wolf are jumbled together in pools of sticky asphalt.” It is covered in a wooded canopy and its walls are  supported by scaffolding

Facebook purging is getting near its end. These are from a fun weekend with my sister, nieces and @josha-z.bsky.social in early 2016.

Made the mistake of reading someone’s post asking what happens if the fire reaches the #LaBreaTarPits and now I need someone with petroleum, thermodynamics, methane, and urban disaster knowledge to explain this to me in a realistic way bc I spiraled. 😓 Now my stomach hurts.

For #NationalBirdDay I have a #WIP reconstruction of Merriam's #Teratorn from the La Brea Tar Pits. Although distantly related to New World vultures, teratorns were active predators that hunted on the ground #paleoart #labreatarpits
