Every time I stop by Mastodon Ridge I take a picture of the Mastodon and post it to Mastodon #MastodonsOfMastodon

(The sign is prompting a LOT of questions though!)

“The American mastodon
(Mammut americanum)
became extinct about 10,000 years ago. They looked similar to mammoths, but were separated by 25 million years of evolution and show key differences, especially in their teeth. While mammoths had relatively flat teeth, which were good for grinding grass (their main food source), the much smaller mastodons had more pointed teeth —perfect for a diet of twigs and leaves.” #MastodonsOfMastodon #LaBreaTarPits

I haven't found any official Mastodon merch, but I did find this mug on Etsy. #MastodonsOfMastodon #mug #BeverageContainmentSystem

And your cats of course Duh. Throw in doggos too. Go forth and retrieve all our elephants and any stray mastodons too. #MastodonsOfMastodon

I shall not regret any of this toot thread if I see even one reply with a pic of our adorable tribe. Even if it’s a bird.

Meta: lift the curtain to see the curtain being lifted

Peale’s self-portrait ‘The Artist in His Museum’ (1822) is an early precursor of putting a content warning on your toot, offering a cheeky glimpse of the #Mastodon skeleton behind the curtain #MastodonsOfMastodon #Romantodon #Victodon

Reading up on Peale’s exhumation of the #Mastodon (for #MastodonsOfMastodon / #Victodon / #Romantodon content) and here’s a beautiful skeletal drawing by his son:
