That's it for this year, friends. Join us again next Halloween for the next edition of #extinctspecieshaiku

[Brudvig Lab @BrudvigLab]

Today we were joined by lab alums and friends for our annual #extinctspecieshaiku Halloween lab meeting (because extinction is scary!)

We present the haikus chronologically by ~year of extinction, with extinction year in parentheses (good idea @FoggyIdeas):

We held a fantastic joint lab meeting today with @AnnaBucharova and Team. Super interesting to talk about seed sourcing and seed-based restoration research, comparing notes and findings from North American prairies and European semi-natural grasslands.

Thanks, Everyone!
