What's your favorite animal? I always thought that fishing hats are really tool. These are hats that have big feet and they fly over the surfate of the water, and they drag their feet over the water. They actually gaff fish with their claws. So, those are fun. There's an aquatit mole that lives in Eussiatcalled a desman. It has amazing thick, lush fur - it lives very north in Eussia - and this wonderful, curved, long sthnoz with big whiskers tom- lug off to the side. I like looking at that. Why do you enjoy studying ani- mals? Animals are endlessly variable. There's room for infinite turio- icy and infinite learning. What is your main role at the University? Ihave two roles and, to me, they are both very important. One is that I'm a professor. I tenth and I do 'researth in etology and evolutionary biology. I also have grad students. We are all now involved on studies on climate thange and its impact on lotal mammal faunas. My setond role is as a turator here at the museum, where I'm responsible for a pretty large researth collection of mam- mals. What courses do you teach? Most of the time sinte I've been here I taught a mammalogy tourse cailed "Biology of Mam- mals." I have also taught a vari- ety of other courses. For the last couple of. decades, it's been ani- mal diversity and I really enjoy doing that. We try to introduce people to the diversity of ani- mals - everything from protozoa to mammals, and everything in between. -AUSTENHUFFORD Newsnnn 734-418-4115 oyt.3 acorrectiaons@ichigandaily.coa Arts Section arts@michigandaily.com Spnrts Sectionn syorts@michigandaily.om Display Sales' display@michigandaily.com Online Sales onlineads@michiganday.com News Tips news@michiaaily.co Leters tn the Editor tothedaily@michigandaily.com Editnrial Page opinion@michigandaily.com PhotographylSectin photo@michigandaily.com tlassified Sales classified@michigandaily.com Finance finance@michigandaily.com AUSTON HUFFORD/Daily Zoology Prof. Philip Myers holds a preserved spetimenr from the Museum at Zoology.
