Mathematicians have discovered a strange link between the way zebra stripes form and how sperm swim. If you’re one of the few who saw this coming, you have something in common with Alan Turing, the famed English mathematician who once saw a connection between how squiggly or spotty patterns arise in nature. Here’s more from Science Alert: https://flip.it/ye0Iml

“Grant's zebras”

More Grant’s zebras are in the wild than any other species or subspecies of zebras. Unlike Grevy and mountain zebras, they are not endangered.

Grant’s zebras eat the coarse grasses that grow on the African plains, and they are resistant to diseases that…

Still one of the best talks I've ever seen on the union of #software #engineering and #hardware - it's honestly amazing that most hardware works as reliably as it does. Bryan's personality also keeps this fun ;)

Have a look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fE2KDzZaxvE

Having been on the other side of this problem (the #software side) I can confirm what we often see as #random / unstable behaviour is often locked deep inside #firmware.

Hard to believe it’s been a whole year since Botswana safari. So many animals up close and “personal.” These zebras were just chillin when we came along. With most animals (except birds) in muted tans and grays, the zebras’ white and black stripes were a real treat. #photography #Botswana #zebras #travel #tripofalifetime

Two zebras willing to see what our group was like up close. Botswana boasted abundant wildlife.

#Horses are maybe the most studied #fossil #mammals (I did 1/3 of my dissertation on them!). They've been central to understanding #evolution for as long as #evolutionary #biology has existed, so it was thrilling to see #zebras, the most widespread wild #equids, upon arriving in #Zambia!

Such variety of stripes on #Zebras!

These were also a twitchy bunch - though I suspect thats a defence mechanism to prevent mosquitoes gorging themselves at will.

Zebras come in all kinds of stripes.

A zebra. Yellow stripes on the mane, face and neck; purple stripes on the torso; black stripes on legs; black tail, and nose. The stripes are the colours of the nonbinary pride flag.

Fished a few more photos from last week out of my "big camera". Didn't visit any official "safari parks" but the landscape we were visiting is wild, and borders the Serengeti. There are no fences, and with the first meaningful rain for two years falling just the week before we arrived, the area was rich and busy with wildlife.

Special mention to the zebras, or "punda milia" (stripey donkeys) in Swahili, who were absolutely the stars of the show. 🦓🦓🦓🦓

#introduction as I'm new here. I am an assistant curator #histodon in modern & contemporary History at National Museums Scotland. I love all things Scottish history & museums/heritage in general. I was a dancer and dance teacher (and piano teacher) before I changed careers due to becoming increasingly disabled. I am a bendy (hypermobility spectrum disorder), so hello to all my fellow #zebras and #ChronicPain #disability community. I love #museums #heritage #history #archaeology #Discworld #cats

Das ist der genialste LiveStream überhaupt!
Die Cam läuft 24/7 an einem kleinen künstlichen Wasserloch mitten in der Wüste Namib. Man kann 12 Stunden scrollen und viele faszinierende Tiere erleben.

Wer auf ca. 10:05 Ortszeit zurückscrollt, kann sehen, wie eine einzelne Oryx einen Pulk Strauße durch die Wüste jagt. 😂🤣
