Whatever its true ancestry, if you study Arsinoitherium or any of its possible relatives, extant or extinct, you should be part of the Afrotheria session I'll be co-chairing with @tegnikus.bsky.social at this year's IPC in Cape Town. Abstracts are due at the end of the month! (3/3)

Saw my first sand frog on my way to Peers Cave as part of a South African Archaeological Society outing 🐸 It's very well camouflaged, so a hint is given in the Alt text. Peers Cave is an unfortunate example of how not to do #Archaeology, but there are still things to see if you know where to look.

Image of a sand frog. It is very well camouflaged, most easily identified by finding its eye in the image (just left of centre next to the green blade of grass)

I picked up this penguin made of plastic at UCT at the end of October. Today I went to Two Oceans Aquarium for my free visit. Since the aim was to raise awareness, I took note of the info about how to help our oceans and penguins. Loved the unexpected references to #Archaeology and #Palaeontology!
