The other day, me w/ "Winky" a dear friend of 40-yrs. 0500h at some bar in HarDCore after seeing TheBellrays and The Damned at the 9:30 Club in Washington, DC. Just being old punks in love. That is how we roll.

#frogfriday. Science may not be pretty sometimes but it damn sure is important. Illustration from an old Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History publication-way way back in the day. Enjoy!

Hog-nosed snakes. I like 'em all.

Examples of some of what we are dealing with here in the USA. Hopefully we'll prevail and species will recover too.

#frogfriday Have new poison frog published today! Enjoy!

Happy #Earthday! Another of my illustrations from long ago.

#SciArt Scientific illustrator Alissa Eckert, after helping create this image & after 17-yrs. of service to the CDC here in the USA was fired. This is not normal; this is corruption. When we take back our country hopefully she'll get her job back. We're protesting everyday now, won't be much longer.

#Frogfriday 🐍The Emerald poison frog Ameerega smaragdina was officially synonymized w/ A. petersi see French et al., 2019. I noted this being known prior to French et al. in the aposematic poison frog book we published in 2016. Enjoy a shiny moist-looking poison frog from Perú! © 2016 Ted R. Kahn.

#TBT my book launch in Colombia 2016 news clip. Enjoy!

Okay. Chill out - my advice to myself after days of protesting here in Washington, DC against the Nazis. Have a newt. Do something today to change tomorrow.

REMEMBER! It is mail the president a postcard day. THE WHITE HOUSE, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, NW, Washington, DC 20500.

#frogfriday ! Phyllobates sp. Copyright in pic. There are ~7 species in Colombia, one in Mesoamerica, some undescribed or not in synonymy in Colombia (my favorite country along with Venezuela . I am entirely unsure what this is. It is likely one of the most toxic vertebrates on Earth. Enjoy!

I just called my reps with @5calls.org, you should too: 5calls.org

Have a frog T**** doesn't know exists or he'd kill it. Not going to post where they live. Fuck You M***. Yeah the Federal Government propagates these. You know nothing. Sorry folks, here in DC & really frustrated & angry at watching thousands of friends being illegally fired. © 1994 Ted R. Kahn.

#darwinday Enjoy!

#DarwinDay Here have two-morphs of Epipedobates darwinwallacei (yeah I painted them) and my friend Diego F. Cisneros-Heredia described them & authored a chapter in one of "my" books - over 100 authors & coauthors, so really can't call it my book per se. PDF available if ya' want it, just ask.🐍

This one’s for the whole world. Go to your App Store. Leave Google maps a one star review. Feel free to leave other Google products a one star review as well. Reason: ignorance of geography and colonialist sympathies. #3E

Call to Action: Nationwide General Strike incoming. At least 11 million people are needed to pledge, that's nearly 3.5% of the US population. When the number hits 11 million it's time to strike. Spread widely. Pledge today: generalstrikeus.com #3E #GSUS #USprotests

My day w/ my herpetologist buddy RWG Jr. to duel verify specimen data/tags/permits & they are on their way to a great state museum - not the Federal SI/NMNH. 1) My razor quit so that is my hair today. 2) Yes, I'm in my pink home lab coat - punks wear pink & don't care. Peace. 🤪🐍 ©2025 Ted R. Kahn

Just so you know I'm a HarDCore punk. Yeah, my artwork is in this book. A flyer I inked for a benefit concert to get a friend out of jail for Quaaludes. Bent Edge or Straight Edge, back then we all cooperated for societies mutual benefits; the greater good. Society was a thing back then. Other art 2

Yep.

Still have no info on getting hardcopies of the book I worked on w/ a bunch of cool conservation zoologists-came out last year, July? I'll keep trying to get hardcopies for those who expressed interest. If you want PDF lemeno & message/chat me an email to send it to. Get your science while you can!🐍
