Extraordinary fossils solve a 500-million-year mystery: Bryozoans were there at the dawn of animal life

Extraordinary fossils solve a 500-million-year mystery: Bryozoans were there at the dawn of animal life Stephanie Baum Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Bryozoans are tiny, filter-feeding colonial invertebrates that thrive in the world's oceans today, yet for decades their origins presented a puzzling gap in the fossil record. While nearly every other major animal group made its first appearance during the Cambrian explosion roughly 530 million years ago, the bryozoan fossil...

Ancient cave lion genomes reveal a distinct lineage

Ancient cave lion genomes reveal a distinct lineage Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor A new study on multiple genomes from the extinct cave lion has discovered that it represented a highly distinct evolutionary lineage, which separated from modern lions more than a million years ago. The results also show that the cave lion had a history of interbreeding with modern lions that was tightly linked to past climatic changes. These findings are published in the journal...

Genome study shows what made the extinct Ice Age cave lion unique

Genome study shows what made the extinct Ice Age cave lion unique June 4 : The cave lion was one of the biggest cats to ever live, prowling a huge swathe of territory from Western Europe across Siberia and into North America and hunting large prey - and perhaps even people - before going extinct around the end of the Ice Age. New genome research reveals what made this big cat unique and how it differed from the modern lion, its smaller cousin, though the two species did sporadically...
