thoughts on science, history, and teaching

John M. Lynch is an Honors Faculty Fellow at Barrett the Honors College at Arizona State University. He's also affiliated with ASU's Center for Biology & Society. When he's not an historian of anti-evolutionism, he's an evolutionary morphologist. Much to his surprise, in 2007 he was named the Arizona Professor of the Year. No doubt his students were surprised as well.

Aw, that's a cute one. Although I question its camouflage abilities.

Obviously they're camouflaged for hiding on yellow snow.
