Extinct ancient settlement Zashiversk on Indigirka

Devils Tower is the geological feature made famous in the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind. It is the core of a long since extinct volcano. Over the centuries the dirt and ash that made up the mountain have eroded leaving the rock plug behind.

Coregonus alpenae

Extinct since 1975

 

The longjaw cisco chub once inhabited the deep water of Lakes Huron, Michigan, and Erie. It grew to be around 12 inches long and had a silvery colorization. The last known longjaw cisco was documented in 1975 in Ontario at the Georgian Bay. The extinction of this species was due to overfishing, pollution, and an invasive species. During the 1930s, the ciscos were caught in mass numbers by the deepwater cisco fishery and sold as “smoked herring.” Sea lampreys were introduced to the Great Lakes in the 1930s, and had a huge impact on the longjaws’ fish population. They attach their suction-cup like mouth to their victim and feed on their blood. The lamprey produces lamphredin, which is a biological fluid that prevents clots to form in the blood. The fish die from infection caused by the lamprey or by bleeding out. In a matter of years, the lampreys became the top predators of the region and the chubs were extinct.

 

Since the decimation of many fish species caused by the lampreys, a lot of research has been conducted to better understand the species. The Great Lakes Fishery Commission has worked to control their populations by using chemical lampricides and electric currents. A lampricide is a chemical inserted into the water systems that target the lampreys’ larvae, and kills them before adulthood is reached. This method helps control the uncontainable species and maintain a healthy population. The electrical currents are used when the lampreys are moving upstream to reproduce. While on this journey, scientist send electrical currents through the water that “guide” the lampreys into a trap. Both methods have been very successful and have provided education as to how to address invasive species. With this knowledge, we can be more helpful and hopefully have the tools to prevent extinctions like the longjaw cisco in the future.

Marble: They were often collected, both for nostalgia and for their aesthetic colors. Children used to play different games with it, which was interesting at a point but now it has no practical value in the era of PlayStation,X-box etc . There was a craze of collecting these but now people get it as a showpiece. The trend of playing marble games being a kid might get extincted. :|

The tree on the left is the Dawn Redwood, an ancient species of deciduous redwood once thought to be extinct. It was rediscovered in China in modern times and then grown in several locations around the U.S. In the fall of 1952, in Portland Oregon, the Hoyt Arboretum's Dawn Redwood became the first in the Western hemisphere to produce cones in about 6 million years. This one is growing along Ladd Avenue in Southeast Portland. This is November, and it has turned red and is losing it's foliage, unlike evergreen redwoods.

Self portrait from the weekend.

My newest fossil. Reminds me of a Goniastrea or a Prism Favia. Except this one is 350 million years old.

The black = exposed volcanic rock from erosion.
