Sloths at Sea

Monday June 28, 2004
I'm behind on my blog-surfing, but today I got back to Carl Zimmer's wonderful site "The Loom" and had to share with you his article on a peculiar group of fossil creatures from Peru dating back into the late Miocene and Pliocene. They were sloths that adapted to living in the ocean, like whales and seals and manatees. Carl takes you farther than the bare bones to make some larger points, too.

Where do I find blogs like this? Why, in the Blogs category where you can follow along at your pleasure.
