I want to start including conservation success stories at the end of every lecture in my #mammalogy class.
Anyone have recommendations for success stories for any group of mammals? Especially mammals that are perhaps less charismatic and therefore harder to find examples for.

Naked mole-rats can live up to 40 years, ten times longer than similar rodents. Scientists discovered four mutations in their cGAS enzyme that boost DNA repair, and adding these mutations to fruit flies even extended lifespan.

Our #3Dprinted 1/4 scale #humpback whale skeleton is finally complete and hung up in our teaching classroom! My #mammalogy students printed the individual bones, and the #MarineMammalogy class painted and articulated the #skeleton with Dr. Jim Dines! It's about 11 feet long and looks amazing!
