March Mammal Madness is an alternate March Madness tournament focusing on simulated combat between organisms of all kinds, despite the name. Katie Hinde created March Mammal Madness, using a 64-animal bracket, with the goal of using biological research to create (simulated) battles.[2]

Katie Hinde, originally an assistant professor in the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University[3] and currently an associate professor in the School of Human Evolution and Social Change at Arizona State University,[4] later brought in three other educators to help her organize the event. This includes assistant professor at Boston University School of Medicine Kristi Lewton, a lecturer at State University of New York Joshua Drew, and assistant professor at Dominican University Christopher Anderson.[5] Along with these educators, a team of artists led by Charon Henning provides artwork of the various mammal competitors throughout the tournament.[3] Together, they research all of the combatants, using what they learned to provide entertainment and information.[2]

In 2017, more educators were added on to the March Mammal Madness team to help. This includes Ph.D. student at the University of Notre Dame Mauna Dasari, postdoctoral fellow at the University of Notre Dame Marc Kissel, post-doctoral researcher and instructor at the University of Utah Patrice Kur genetics, genomics, and the phylogeny of the various mammals participating. This includes Anne Stone of the School of Human Evolution and Social Change, and Melissa Wilson Sayres from the School of Life Sciences at Arizona State University.[6]
