🐅 What's white and orange with black stripes all over? Pseudo-melanistic tigers, sometimes called black tigers, have so many thick black stripes they make up the majority of their fur color. The fur pattern is genetic, causing the coloring variation in Royal Bengal Tigers. While tiger stripes will sometimes touch and blend, these black tigers will have sections of fur along their sides where only stripes of orange may show. 🖤

✨ The next animal in the Famous Animals and Insects of Science 3.0 series is the Woolly Mouse! 🐁 Project launches on January 22, follow via my 🔗!

🐘 Woolly mouse, is that like a woolly mammoth? Well, the team at Colossal Biosciences genetically modified these mice to express fluffy, woolly coats in addition to modifications to their cold tolerance and metabolism. Colossal claims this project was the proof of concept for their woolly mammoth de-extinction program which they propose could mitigate climate change. Their plan is to produce a genetically modified elephant by 2028, though their 'direwolf' controversy has had people second-guessing their intentions behind the science. On the woolly mice, the CEO had this to say, “Besides the adorability factor – we did not factor in how cute they would be – now we have produced healthy living animals that have the exact phenotypes that we predicted, based on using ancient DNA and computational analysis in genome engineering”. They have no intention of selling the woolly mice and that they are focused on their de-extinction research. 🔬

🎉 New year new Famous Animals and Insects of Science 3.0 series! 🎉 You can follow the campaign now in my 🔗 and I'll be posting each design here leading up to launch. ✨ Starting off small (and very cute) with Bumble Bees Play! 🐝

What do bumble bees and humans have in common? Is it their appreciation of honey and affinity for hexagons, or is it a shared joy? Yes, in a 2022 study we discovered that bumble bees play! Not only do they play recreationally, but according to this study, juvenile bees play longer and more often than older bees.

Also how great is this audio? Waggle dance beat anyone? 🤣
