Expanding The Field

I will still post here about, or related to, Dolphins
but have expanded the field to include other mammals,
so the 'Muse' might change according to topic for each post.

The class Mammalia (mammals) is divided into two subclasses
based on reproductive techniques:
egg-laying mammals (monotremes)
and mammals which give live birth (therians).
The latter subclass is divided into two infraclasses:
pouched mammals (marsupials)
and placental mammals (eutherians).

So Many Mammals
So Little Time
