Did you know? Crows can remember a human face for over 15 years! And they hold a grudge - they warn other crows by cawing when they see the person, passing the infomation across generations.

Crows are proving themselves to be among the most intelligent animals on Earth.

A long-term study led by Professor John Marzluff at the University of Washington revealed that crows not only recognize dangerous individuals but also share this knowledge across their communities.

Beginning in 2006, Marzluff and his team trapped several crows while wearing a distinctive mask. Years later, whenever the mask appeared again, even birds that had never been captured joined in mobbing the wearer, proving that crows had learned socially who to distrust.

At its peak in 2013, nearly all the crows on campus scolded the masked figure, demonstrating the persistence and spread of this remarkable memory.

Beyond grudges, the findings reveal that crows engage in cultural transmission, passing vital information across generations. This ability is part of a larger picture of crow intelligence, which includes tool use, problem-solving, and even what appear to be funerary gatherings.

Combined with their complex social structures and communication systems, these traits confirm that crows are far more than just ominous black birds in folklore — they are highly adaptive animals with cognitive abilities rivaling some primates.

As the study concludes, the crow’s mind is not only sharp but communal, capable of shaping collective behavior over decades.

A billionaire bought 400,000 acres of the Amazon rainforest by purchasing the logging company that owned it.

Then, he closed the company, protecting the forest from destruction.

In 2006, Swedish-born businessman Johan Eliasch, then the 145th richest man in Britain, made headlines for buying 400,000 acres of Amazon rainforest — an area the size of Greater London — with the stated goal of protecting it from logging and preserving biodiversity.

Eliasch said the purchase was his way of countering climate change by conserving old-growth forests that absorb vast amounts of carbon.

Ultimately, his move was part of a wider trend of wealthy individuals buying up land in South America for conservation, following similar efforts by figures like Doug Tompkins of The North Face and financier George Soros.

While he described the rainforest as a “precious responsibility,” his actions also sparked controversy, as the move resulted in workers being laid off.

His approach also raised thorny debates about “green colonialism” and whether private ownership of vast swathes of land in developing nations is the right path to global conservation. Why not buy land in your own industralized nation and rehabilitate it?

Still, Eliasch saw his purchase as a first step, expressing hopes that other wealthy backers would follow suit, scaling up efforts to preserve rainforests under threat.

🟣 Thailand’s rainforest just revealed a secre — rare purple crabs, dubbed “Princess crabs.”

Wildlife officials spotted the tiny, jewel-toned creatures at the park’s Panoen Thung checkpoint just before the area closed for the tourist season.

Thailand’s Kaeng Krachan National Park has revealed a splash of unexpected color: rare purple crabs, known locally as “Princess” or “Sirindhorn” crabs in honor of Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn.

With shells only about an inch wide at full size, the crabs stand out vividly against the forest’s green moss, and their unusual appearance has been hailed by conservationists as “a precious gift from nature.”

These crabs are a striking variation of the panda crab (Lepidothelphusa cognetti), a semi-terrestrial species usually known for its black-and-white coloration.

First described in Thailand in the 1980s, panda crabs are already considered rare, making the discovery of their purple cousins even more remarkable. While scientists know little about their habits, wildlife officials say their presence is an encouraging sign of the park’s environmental health. Kaeng Krachan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is celebrated for its rich biodiversity, hosting everything from leopards and bears to king cobras.

The sighting of these vivid crabs, officials say, underscores the importance of preserving one of Thailand’s most ecologically valuable forests.

🦈 A bright orange shark was just found — this is the first ever sighting of its kind!

The six-foot-long shark, captured during a sport fishing trip near Tortuguero National Park, stunned researchers with its vivid coloration

An extraordinarily rare bright orange nurse shark with stark white eyes has been discovered off the coast of Costa Rica, marking the first recorded case of xanthism in a cartilaginous fish in the Caribbean.

The color is caused by a pigmentation disorder that suppresses red tones, leaving excessive yellow or golden hues. The condition, combined with signs of albinism, made the shark far more visible in the wild, potentially increasing its vulnerability to predators.
Xanthism is extremely rare across the animal kingdom, previously seen only in a small number of fish, reptiles, and birds.

Scientists believe the shark’s unique coloration may stem from a genetic mutation, though diet or environmental factors could also play a role. The discovery has sparked new questions about genetic diversity in regional nurse shark populations.

Researchers emphasize the need for further investigation, especially since such a rare anomaly could alter long-held assumptions about shark survival and adaptation.

👁️ New contact lenses let you see in the dark — even through your eyelids.

Scientists have developed futuristic contact lenses that give humans infrared vision, even with their eyes shut.

By embedding special nanoparticles into ultra-thin membranes, the lenses convert infrared light into visible wavelengths detectable by the human eye.

Unlike traditional night-vision gear, these lenses require no external power source and are so thin and flexible they can be worn like regular contacts. The breakthrough offers a streamlined, wearable alternative to bulky equipment, opening up possibilities in fields like security, rescue missions, and even medical diagnostics.

What sets this innovation apart is its passive functionality — users don’t have to actively "see" through their eyes for the technology to work.

The lenses translate invisible infrared light into visible images directly on the retina or surrounding tissue, creating a kind of sixth sense for heat and motion. As this technology matures, it could revolutionize how humans interact with their environments in low-light or high-risk settings, merging biology with advanced optics in ways previously reserved for science fiction.

⛽ After 100 years of drilling, a massive oil field in the US is almost entirely dry.

For more than a century, the Phosphoria Total Petroleum System in northwest Colorado and southwest Wyoming has fueled U.S. energy production.

Since the 1920s, the formation has yielded over 500 million barrels of oil and 2.5 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.

But after decades of extraction, a new U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) assessment suggests its best days are behind it. The report estimates only about 3 million barrels of oil and 666 billion cubic feet of natural gas remain technically recoverable—just a fraction of the resources already pulled from the ground.

The decline underscores a reality often overlooked in discussions about energy security: fossil fuel reservoirs are finite. While nearby formations like the Lance, Lewis, and Mesaverde continue to produce, the Phosphoria’s depletion highlights the ticking clock on long-standing oil and gas fields. As century-old systems near exhaustion, energy planners face the challenge of balancing dwindling fossil resources with the urgent push toward renewables. The story of the Phosphoria may be a preview of what’s ahead for other aging fields across the U.S. and beyond.

The world’s first cities were in Ukraine, not Mesopotamia 🇺🇦

Archaeologists have uncovered ancient Ukrainian cities older than Mesopotamia. They are some of the oldest we've ever found.

Long considered the cradle of civilization, Mesopotamia may soon share that title with central Ukraine.

Archaeologists have uncovered vast, meticulously planned settlements from the Cucuteni–Trypillia culture dating back to 4000 BCE—predating many early Mesopotamian cities.

These "Megasites," some sprawling across 320 hectares, featured concentric layouts, communal spaces, and populations ranging from 5,000 to 15,000 people.

Their deliberate architectural planning, absence of written records, and the mysterious ritual burning of homes paint a picture of a complex, organized society operating outside conventional narratives of how cities form.

Far from being a footnote, these settlements are reshaping how we define urban life. Were they seasonal gathering sites or permanent cities? Did they operate under leaders or function as egalitarian communities? The absence of elites, palaces, and writing challenges long-held assumptions about the ingredients of civilization. As excavations continue, these Ukrainian sites are forcing historians to broaden the definition of a city and acknowledge that urban life may have emerged in multiple regions simultaneously, each with its own unique trajectory.

Scientists found a plant virus that makes the human body hunt and kill cancer.

And it shrank real tumors.

A plant virus known for infecting beans may hold the key to a breakthrough in cancer treatment. Scientists at the University of California, San Diego, have uncovered why the cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) uniquely stimulates the human immune system to attack tumors—while closely related viruses do not.

Published in Cell Biomaterials, the study shows that CPMV triggers a powerful dual immune response by activating both innate and adaptive pathways. When injected into tumors in mice, CPMV recruited immune cells to the site, activated long-lasting immune memory, and even shrank untreated tumors elsewhere in the body.

Unlike traditional oncolytic viruses that infect and destroy tumor cells, CPMV works by being recognized as a foreign invader, prompting a robust immune attack.

Researchers discovered that CPMV's RNA stays active longer inside immune cells and activates a critical receptor, TLR7, sparking strong anti-cancer signaling. Closely related plant viruses, like CCMV, fail to produce the same effect. With previous success in both mouse models and canine cancer patients, CPMV now stands out as a promising, non-infectious immunotherapy agent. The team is preparing for clinical trials, hoping this plant pathogen could become a future weapon against cancer.

🚨Warren Buffett just gave away another $6 billion — bringing his lifetime donations to a record breaking $60 billion.

Warren Buffett has now given away more than $60 billion of his fortune, following a new $6 billion donation announced in 2025.

The 94-year-old investor made the contribution in Berkshire Hathaway shares, with $4.6 billion going to the Gates Foundation and $1.4 billion split among family-run charities.

With this milestone, Buffett noted he’s donated “substantially more than my entire net worth in 2006,” which was around $46 billion. Since then, his wealth has more than tripled to over $145 billion, largely due to the steady growth of Berkshire Hathaway.

This latest gift is part of Buffett’s long-standing pledge to donate over 99% of his wealth, a commitment he’s upheld annually since 2006. He also co-founded The Giving Pledge to encourage other billionaires to follow suit. While his donations to the Gates Foundation will stop upon his death, Buffett has structured his estate to ensure the remainder of his wealth is directed by both his children and three independent trustees.

In recent years, he’s spoken out strongly against dynastic wealth, advocating instead for thoughtful, intentional giving that reflects personal values and responsibility.

A new stem cell therapy may reverse spinal cord injury. A man who was paralyzed can now stand after getting the injection.

And he doesn't need any assistance.

In a landmark move, Japanese scientists have received regulatory approval to use reprogrammed stem cells to treat spinal-cord injuries in humans for the first time.

Led by stem-cell expert Hideyuki Okano at Keio University, the trial will utilize induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells—adult cells genetically reprogrammed to an embryonic-like state.

These cells will be transformed into neural precursors and injected into patients shortly after injury, with the aim of regenerating damaged nerve tissues.

The procedure, which previously showed promise in restoring movement in spinal-injured monkeys, will initially be tested on four human patients to evaluate safety and potential effectiveness. If successful, it could pave the way for broader clinical trials. While iPS cells have been used in treating conditions like macular degeneration and Parkinson’s disease, this marks their debut in addressing paralysis from spinal injuries—offering new hope where few treatments currently exist.

In Oregon’s Willamette National Forest lies Lost Lake, a picturesque body of water with a fascinating mystery — every year, it vanishes entirely. This phenomenon occurs because the lake sits atop a network of underground lava tubes, remnants of ancient volcanic activity. These tubes act like natural drains, allowing water to disappear deep into the porous volcanic rock. During the rainy and snowy seasons, the lake fills up, but as summer approaches, it steadily drains away, leaving behind a meadow until the cycle begins again.

Scientists believe the lava tubes are part of a vast underground system formed thousands of years ago when flowing lava hardened on the surface but left hollow channels beneath. The exact destination of the disappearing water remains uncertain, but it’s thought to replenish underground aquifers. Lost Lake’s seasonal vanishing act has made it both a geological wonder and a favorite subject of local folklore.

Deep within the limestone caves of Borneo, scientists have discovered ancient rock art that dates back more than 40,000 years, making it the oldest known figurative artwork in the world. Found in the Lubang Jeriji Saléh cave in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, the paintings depict large animals, possibly banteng (wild cattle), alongside stenciled handprints. Radiocarbon dating and uranium-series analysis of the mineral layers covering the art confirmed its extraordinary age, pushing back the timeline of human creativity.

This discovery is significant because it reveals that early humans in Southeast Asia were producing complex, symbolic art at the same time — or even earlier — than their counterparts in Europe. The detailed depictions suggest advanced cognitive skills, cultural expression, and possibly spiritual beliefs. It challenges the idea that Europe was the birthplace of art and highlights Southeast Asia’s critical role in the global story of human evolution and cultural development.
