Who's the smartest corvid?
[Editor’s note: Not only is it a bit rude to call someone a “featherbrain,” it’s also highly inaccurate, Louis Lefebvre writes in ‘A Bird’s IQ,’ translated from the original French by Pablo Strauss and out now from Greystone Books. In fact, when humans study birds, there’s a lot we can learn about ourselves. In this excerpt, Lefebvre shares a litany of innovative, sometimes bloody-minded, corvid meal acquisition tactics.]
New Velociraptor cousin was a '4-winged' dragon that hunted prey from the trees of ancient China, fossil find hints
New Velociraptor cousin was a '4-winged' dragon that hunted prey from the trees of ancient China, fossil find hints A new microraptor from Cretaceous China likely preyed on ancient birds. A newly discovered feathered dinosaur with four wing-like limbs may have prowled the lakeside forests of what is now northwestern China, gliding between trees like a flying squirrel and snatching some of the earliest birds out of the Cretaceous sky. The predator, named Jian changmaensis, was a close cousin...
Satellite images reveals mangroves rebounding worldwide — but here's why they could still 'drown'

This yeast-based 3D printed biomaterial could one day replace your wallpaper and drapes
This yeast-based 3D printed biomaterial could one day replace your wallpaper and drapes Researchers have made a new biomaterial that has a similar tensile strength as a fruit roll-up and could help reduce waste produced from indoor decor. Scientists have cooked up a new kind of building material from an ingredient more often found in bread, beer and pizza dough: baker's yeast. The squishy, yeast-based paste can be squeezed through a 3D printer, dried at room temperature and turned into...
