#FinishedReading the epic story of mammal evolution by palaeontologist #SteveBrusatte , from our synapsid ancestors to the modern day. Packed with interesting stories, both of the animals themselves and the diverse group of scientists who have helped us understand them. I particularly liked the weird 'walking whales' in the transition from land to sea, and learning that we primates form a branch of the evolutionary tree with, specifically, rodents and rabbits! #Bookstodon nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqkt3hutklgrma64ykjwk4trxq9rtyfnxhkjz729g4pd9xl7hzhrjs9l9vtz (nprofile…9vtz)
