New Study Suggests African Elephants Use Unique Vocalizations as Personal Names
Broke On: Monday, 10 June 2024A new study published in Nature Ecology & Evolution reveals that African elephants use distinct vocalizations as personal names to communicate with each other, challenging our understanding of animal communication. Scientists from Colorado State University and Cornell University identified these unique sounds through machine learning algorithms and found that adult elephants respond more strongly to their own names. This discovery highlights the advanced cognitive abilities of African elephants and opens up new research avenues into the evolution of language and communication systems in various species. Discovering the Giant: Family Unearths Fragments of Largest Known Marine Reptile's Jawbone
Broke On: Wednesday, 17 April 2024In May 2020, an 11-year-old girl and her father discovered fragments of a massive jawbone on a beach in England, which experts identified as belonging to Ichthyotitan severnensis - the largest known marine reptile from the Triassic period. Estimated to be up to 82 feet long and twice the size of a blue whale, this prehistoric creature is believed to be the last surviving member of its family. The Reynolds' discovery, published in PLOS One in 2024, provides valuable insights into Ichthyotitan severnensis' role in evolutionary history.
