To quote from their Facebook post: It is my sad duty to report to you that the ULM administration has decided to divest the research collections in the Museum of Natural History. This includes the 6 million fish specimens in the Neil Douglas fish collection and the nearly 500,000 plant specimens in the R. Dale Thomas plant collection. They find no value in the collections and no value of the collections to the university.

The Moustached Kingfisher was known by only three samples– one female “collected” in the 1920’s, the other two females “collected” in the 1950’s, according to an Audubon Magazine article. The newest find of this extremely scarce bird was a male, and was “collected” (an innocent-sounding euphemism for “killed”) for the American Museum of Natural History.

We searched the internet for information on any of the finch families collecting charcoal to try and establish what the Painted Finches were using it for. It appears that although we could not find any information on why the Painted Finches were collecting charcoal in the wild it is something that pet bird owners purchase for their pet finches. It would appear that we had been observing Painted Finches collecting the charcoal to maintain good health!

They vary in construction and there is also a wide variation in the items that they collect. Traditionally the Great Bowerbirds collect mostly white and green items, but this varies by location. Around the township of Broome the Great Bowerbirds collect both white and green items , which are both natural and man-made. The first time we encountered a Great Bowerbird that had collected blue items was at Timber Creek.

A final thought: whether you think collective nouns are fascinating or idiotic , the more fundamental question is, why do they exist at all or, rather, how did they come to be? Such coinages are still being created, at least in Saltmarsh, where Detective Chief Superintendent Colleen Shepherd, frustrated with a “typical bureaucratic c**k-up” in Hummingbirds , calls for a new collective noun – a lobotomy of bureaucrats. If you like birds and you also like. Oh, wait.

The RSPCA collected these signatures leading up to the the 7th World Congress on Alternatives & Animal Use in the Life Sciences in Rome. That's an even larger number if you realize that each signature probably represents a few non-signers who feel the same way. I really believe the more people learn about what research animals go through, the more common decency becomes a factor. The problem is that people don't really look at the pictures, read the stories or think about what's happening.
