About 99 million years ago, a tiny juvenile frog in present-day Myanmar was suddenly trapped in sap with a beetle, perhaps its intended next meal. Unlucky for the frog, but lucky for science. An extinct species now named Electrorana limoae, it’s one of four fossils that provide the earliest di
The other amber fossils contain two hands and an imprint of a frog that likely decayed

There are more than 1,000 natural history museums around the world, each tasked with studying and preserving a portion of our planet’s natural and cultural heritage. Notes From Nature is an online platform that allows anyone with an internet connection to advance that mission by helping move valuabl

You might think the buffest frogs would be high jumpers, but if you want shredded pecs, you should train like a burrowing frog. Though famously round, these diggers are the unsung bodybuilders of the frog world. We bring you tips from frog expert Rachel Keeffe, a doctoral student at the University o
If resistance bands are part of your workout routine, try grasping one with both hands

The Florida Museum of Natural History added its own stuffed turkey to the estimated 45 million birds about to be gobbled up across the U.S. this holiday – but you wouldn’t want to bite into this one. Plumped with cotton, this turkey is meant to last for generations as a specimen in the museum’s o

Barcoding the Specimens 1. Review the Specimen Handling Guidelines before you start working with the specimens. 2. Locate the starting point or where the last barcoding was carried out. There should be a marker on the outside and inside of the cabinet. 3. Select specimens based on our Specime

Humans and other primates are outliers among mammals for having nails instead of claws. But how, when and why we transitioned from claws to nails has been an evolutionary head-scratcher. Now, new fossil evidence shows that ancient primates – including one of the oldest known, Teilhardina brandti
“We see a bit of ourselves in the hands and feet of living primates,” Bloch said.

Birds of a feather don’t always flock together: Peer into a forest canopy, and you will likely spot multiple bird species flying and feeding together, a phenomenon most spectacular in the Amazon where 50 species may travel as a unit. But are birds in these mixed flocks cooperating with one another o
These specialists called repeatedly, as though to warn others of their kind “Hands
