TIL a cave goat that went extinct approx. 5,000 years ago is the first known mammal to have become cold-blooded. Their bone growth rate is unlike any other mammal, and more similar to crocodiles in showing slow and adaptive rates to environmental temperature.
The goat’s binomial name is Myotragus balearicus. It was kind of an oddball in a lot of other ways, too, an example being that it had forward-facing eyes, giving it stereoscopic vision, which was pretty odd for an ungulate.
me at 14: “None of my characters are self-inserts! I’ve worked really hard to make them unique and interesting. I hate Mary Sues.”
me now: “they’re all self-inserts. every single one of them. a hundred various versions of me. I’m gonna rub my grubby hands all over every property I enjoy. are you going to stop me? no. you can’t”
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
