Would you rather sit in a tub of cream for 2 hours, or a bath of cow dung for 10 minutes?

Also in the back of the barn, the stables, with space for two large animals. I'm not sure what was kept there last, looks like cow dung. There used to be horses at some point, too.

When the old man gave us the tour, he pointed at the piles of compacted dung and praised its value as fertilizer. What a salesman (he's right though).

Dung flies. God love 'em. The larvae of most species don't actually eat the dung, but rather the larvae of other flies that are eating the dung. Like a lethal game of maggot tag in a pile of shit.

Here's a crappy pic of one I took chilling on a fresh cow pat.

> Many dung beetles, known as rollers, roll dung into round balls, which are used as a food source or breeding chambers. Others, known as tunnelers, bury the dung wherever they find it. A third group, the dwellers, neither roll nor burrow: they simply live in dung.

As followers of this account will know, I’ve been working on this #article for the last few months. Now it has a new #title and is very close to being finally submitted. ‘“Every #town should stand on its own bottom”: Manchester Corporation’s “#Dung Hill Scheme” and Rampton Manor estate, #Nottinghamshire’. #EnvHist

Citation alert from a #dung #beettle #paper

With Antonio Vallecillo, we already defended the idea of #modeling being a #interdisciplinary discipline (see https://lnkd.in/etjUgMr6) but I never expected to see my work influencing #entomologists doing research on #dung #beetles.

(btw, the image is not fake but the citation is indeed a mistake, yet another example of the drawbacks of relying too much on #citation metrics for researchers' #evaluation)

You're welcome. A childhood memory of yours was deleted. xD

I've finally found it (on sale, I was not going to pay full price for it)!

I'm carrying out a study about 2 cryptic Onhtophagus species (Coleoptera Scarabaeidae).

A paratype locality is located a few kilometers away from my forest, but associated genitalia were borrowed and never returned to NHM..

My forest provided hundreds of new specimens.

But not this year. I saw just none of them, despite summer is their time. These dung beetles follow mammals. Food chain alteration, may eventually have driven mammals away.

Cow Patty Bingo is a contest in which a farmer divides a field into 100 squares, gives each participant a number 1-100, and lets a cow loose. If the cow poos in your square you win.

The staff at Gala Bingo secretly run a similar game called Pissy Chair Bingo.

If money being "the dung of the devil" (as the pope puts it) was not bad enough, just think that this whole civilization is build upon it.

If anyone's in #Hull on the 24th May I will be doing the
#PintOfScience
thing at Nanouk. I will be giving a talk entitled "#Sex and #dung and #ClimateChange". Starts 1900. Looking forward to it.
