Dana Harrison Business and Technology is among a group of researchers to discover that consumer perceptions of business ethics and corporate social responsibility vary and ultimately have different impacts on brand attitude.
Their findings were published in the Journal of Business Research. The latest new species from the site is the rhinoceros, Teleoceras aepysoma. At an estimated 4. This species is distinguished by its long front limbs that gave it a boost in height not seen in its cousins, allowing it to eat leaves from higher foliage rather than graze on grass.
While most extinct species are known only from fragmentary remains, Gray has two practically complete T. ETSU paleontologists continue to lend their expertise to projects elsewhere in the U.
Two different extinct species of peccary never before seen in this part of the country — Mylohyus elmorei and Prosthennops serus — have been identified at Gray. Peccaries may look like pigs, but they are not. Like pigs, they are medium-sized omnivorous animals with small tusks. The peccaries found at Gray were identified by well-preserved remains of their skulls, with nearly complete lower jaws of both species. They would have been about the size of a German shepherd, which is a bit larger than modern-day peccaries.
While the animals seem to get the most attention, ancient plants and other organic matter are also well-preserved at Gray. A recent study of three extinct types of fungus — two of which are the first of their kind found in North America — support the.
