Great White Buffalo Rabbit Hole.

A research team led by scientists from the Texas A&M School of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences (VMBS) has developed the most comprehensive genome yet for the North American bison, bringing the animal’s genetic roadmap up to date with the latest genome sequencing technology. In doing so, the research team also discovered the gene responsible for albinism in bison.

Many North American Indigenous peoples regard white bison as sacred entities with prophetic spiritual associations. While not all white bison have albinism, the birth of one is cause for celebration in some communities.

Researchers develop comprehensive genetic map for bison, discover gene responsible for albinism

 I saw the bison story and it made me think of this. Nugent was always on the periphery of my music interests as a youth but I had an album or two and I really like this song.  Nugent has turned out to be an asshole but there is consensus he could play guitar. I saw his Stranglehold song has 40 million views.

Then the algorithm suggested the video above with 385 million views. I never heard of them but was surprised they were from Regina, SK. It is a catchy tune and video. The Amish\Mennonite style costumes are a nice touch.

From there it was down the rabbit hole. A Mongolian band channeling heavy metal?

Then it was a spoon virtuoso. I am not sure what she is doing but it looks like there is some talent there.

…and she has a youtube channel!

… and a Wiki page!
