Magpies are actually pretty cool birds and this study shows just how amazingly smart they can be!
Author ArchivePretty cool little battle here in the form of still pictures. Very interesting…very interesting indeed… http://sciencenow.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/full/2008/528/2
This guy can be found in Australia. For more interesting (and very scientific) information about the unique earthworms of Australia you can click here. I just thought this picture was too cool not to share. Of particular interest to me is this bit: "They pile up the dead, sometimes using them as a bridge to cross safely over surfaces treated with pesticide." I'm pretty sure this is real. There is always a chance it isn't but orangutans are known for their intelligence and use of tools in captivity (the big male at the Milwaukee County Zoo uses a cup to scoop up water and drink it). Pretty cool if it is real. Neat little story about some lizards that were isolated on an island and now exhibit significant physiological and behavioral adaptations after just 36 years!

The Super Mario Theme Like You’ve Never Seen or Heard it BeforePosted by: Zoo Boy in Pop CultureSomeone had waaaaaayyyyyy too much free time on their hands. Pretty cool discovery. Especially interested in the bit about it's eyes facing forward rather than on the sides of it's head. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/357475_oddfish03.html?source=mypi What could be better?! This little lego robot is pretty cool. I'm sure the algorithim used is actually fairly simple but it's still fun to watch! Pretty amazing story about a dolphin coming to the rescue of a beached whale and her calf! http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5iOgpiCHSYJUoSEg7wI72MoQmuBNg It's good to be back folks! Loving the goals and objectives of this site: Cataloging every species on the planet! This is really interesting. I am especially curious what the virus does after all the cancer cells are gone. Unfortunately they don't know just yet. |
