I can think of at least three good reasons.

1. Fossil are the gold standard for time-calibrating phylogenies. We need osteology of extant taxa to place the fossils.

Reminder that opposing animal experiments doesn't mean you have to be anti-science!

Many scientists also wish we could find cures without testing on dogs/rats/monkeys/etc, and can even be found in labs late on Saturday nights working to make this a reality

There are more than 11,000 kinds of birds. I evaluated them all and made a definitive list of the 100 greatest names. I consider myself a bird name connoisseur but these blew me away. Over the next 10 days I'll add them to this thread.

This is the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
