Whats some cool animal stuff you've learned lately? I found out bats smash into each other constantly while swarming and got really into the weeds of the wolf/raven alliance, it is cool. Wombats are also now my most feared land animal.

    last one that really got me going was baleen but that was a awhile ago

    long story short its keratin, not bone, so unrelated to teeths---baleen whales went teeth-->no teeth (suck feeder)-->mouth hair-->filter eaters. and this has to be said to be speculative technically since keratin-shit is hard to find in the fossil record, but i think it's theoretically pretty airtight
