'Jimothy', a raccoon with short spine syndrome who roams Seattle, gains cult following online
A raccoon with a rare birth defect has amassed a legion of fans after a video of it darting across a footpath and running up a set of stairs racked up more than 6.8 million views in just three days.Andrew Thorpe (ABC News)
I am happy to announce our latest paper! "Surprising cryptic cavefish diversity in a long-studied karst cave ecosystem of northern Alabama"
I absolutely love our name for it too, an entire new genus, not just species: Demogorgonichthys arcanus
Why did it take so long to find, in a highly monitored cave? Well just take a look at the mud with water channels and low ceilings, and we cannot typically even get into the water because of other protected and highly endangered species. So visual surveying is difficult, and limited. The paper is an excellent read even for not-biologists, and the images are *amazing*. So proud of our lab!
