The amazing Nautilid Diversity of the Post-Cretaceous Seas
The modern nautilus is usually seen as some sort of archaic relic from an ancient era, unaffected by the changes of time. They are often considered as an anachronistic remnant of an age when the seas were populated by marine … Weiterlesen

Why maned lionesses are not that special (and why they don´t baffle scientists)
Perhaps you have heard about the recent report about a lioness at Oklahoma City Zoo, which „mysteriously“ grew a mane. As usual „scientists are baffled“, at least according to the news-site which spreads the story. However, the whole case is … Weiterlesen
