Mammalogy Department

The Mammalogy Department is a scientific field focused on studying mammals, which are warm-blooded animals with fur and three middle ear bones, such as lions, whales, and bats. Researchers in this department investigate mammal biology, behavior, evolution, and ecology to better understand their roles in ecosystems. This knowledge can aid in conservation efforts, protect endangered species, and inform human-wildlife interactions. The department often includes experts in fields like taxonomy, physiology, and conservation biology, working to expand our understanding of mammals and promote their preservation.
