@Gargron As "Masto" pertains to 'breast', and "don" pertains to 'teeth', I feel you missed out on comedy gold by not labelling #mastodon platform's #statuses #titbits rather than 'toots.'

I am much more curious, however, about the etymology of mammoth<-mammuthus<-mammouth<-мамант possibly Uralic *mē̮ŋ-ońt "earth-horn"

Teeth with bumpy bits is far less salacious than nipple-toothed. New Latin was/is silly.
