Trophic memory, deer, and a unique scientific object

"Imagine trying to get funding for this kind of study now – given the modern emphasis on rapid results, whose career could possibly support such a dataset?"

P.S. I like how the website modifies the clipboard :P

"Trophic" typically means nutritional, what's the connection here?

Fascinating stuff regardless.

Impressive collection, but surprising it hasn’t burned down yet with all those lit candles on bookshelves.

Fascinating read. Also a reminder that aesthetics and fire safety occasionally have very different priorities.
