Just a seasonal reminder that the gifting of wild birds is really not it. 🎁🚫🦢

If twitter is dead can our zooarchaeologist at least have the bones for her type collection?

Yesterday while biking home my chain got stuck. Three different people (one on a bike and two in cars) stopped to ask if I needed help while I was pulled over on the sidewalk wrestling with it. I ❤️ the Boise bike community.

@sgalla32 @BoiseState Aaah! So jealous! I would love to come watch next time!

[Allison Wolfe @AllisonWolfeMac]

It's so bad. After my last journal submission one of the two reviewers contacted me personally to make sure I was not discouraged by the unprofessional and mean-spirited comments of the other reviewer.

Zooarchaeologists watching the second episode of "Dahmer" when he and his dad are collecting roadkill: 😬🙄😬

@TrevorCaughlin Katie Demps in our dept (Anthro) here at BSU may be a good contact! She does research on outdoor recreation and environmental values.

This morning I panic-ran into my office and stripped down to my bra because a yellow jacket was inside my shirt.

And yet, that was honestly one of the *least* chaotic things to happen today.

[Allison Wolfe @AllisonWolfeMac]

@sgalla32 @ICAZ_News @BoiseState Yes!!! I'll send you an email 😊

[Allison Wolfe @AllisonWolfeMac]

@TrevorCaughlin It was great! Sounds like you need an anthropologist to help answer your questions about peoples' attitudes about tree restoration and goathead removal 🙌

@ShellyVPhD When I got into grad school my roommates got me an Indiana Jones whip. I need to find it...

[Allison Wolfe @AllisonWolfeMac]

Overheard conversation between two of my students in the hall before my Intro to Archaeology class:
Student 1: "Are you ready for some Indiana Jones s**t?!"
Student 2: "I feel like there should be whips or something."

BIRDS ARE DESCENDANTS OF MEAT-EATING THEROPODS LIKE T. REX SO WHEN YOU EAT DINO NUGGETS YOU'RE *ACTUALLY* EATING A DINOSAUR AND NOT JUST FOOD SHAPED LIKE ONE.

[Allison Wolfe @AllisonWolfeMac]

I am this friend.

[U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service @USFWS]

By age 30 everyone should have that one friend who can ID the bird you saw from the most terrible description while still being delighted to share their knowledge and experience.
