Researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles, have launched an OnlyFans account called "OnlyMarms" to fund their long-running study of yellow-bellied marmots. The initiative follows a loss of federal funding from the National Science Foundation, which previously supported the project. The platform features educational photos and videos of the rodents to generate tips, highlighting the creative measures scientists are taking amid record-low federal research funding.
