128 and counting

My dissertation project has gotten some great news this week. Today we received 30 lion specimens from the Field Museum of Natural History!
​

This brings us to a grand total of 128 specimens for analysis from the American Museum of Natural History, the Los Angeles Museum of Natural History and, now, the Field Museum of Natural History!

We were also able to get a piece of much needed equipment provided to us through a generous donation by the Dallas Safari Club. With this equipment, I will finally be able to start processing the many bone samples I have collected in-house! Without having to travel to another University to use their equipment, this will help us to cut costs and save loads of time.

​It's been a great week, and it's only Wednesday!
