The Moskva was the largest and most powerful non-nuclear icebreaker at her time of delivery. She got some international attention in 1985 when she herded around 2000 ice-entrapped belugas back to the open sea … by playing classical music. Yes, you read that right!

Grandma Somboon was stolen from the wild when she was just a baby and spent 80 years working in the logging and tourism industries. She spent all day every day on her feet, giving rides to tourists and working long hours when she should have been living her life. When Save Elephant Foundation learned about Somboon’s plight, they knew they had to help her. “It’s time for Grandma to be ca
Children often develop remarkable connections with animals, creating bonds that go beyond mere companionship. These relationships are usually seen with household pets like cats and dogs, which grow to become protectors and best friends of their young owners.

This was an unprecedented find in the Grand Canyon, which soon repeated in the press.

When we think of birds that can talk, parrots are usually the first ones that come up. But crows can talk too! By using their syrinx, crows can also mimic sounds or words that they often hear. Even though crows are not as domesticated as parrots, they can still be good at copying human speech without any mutilating. That being said, let’s meet Mourdour. Far from what many peop
A group of whale watchers almost lost their lives as the gigantic whale appeared surprisingly, without them knowing behind their boat. Located at Baja, California Peninsula of San Ignacio Lagoon and this whale-watching group was pictured waiting with their cameras ready for action.

Human civilization has come a long way since the early days of our species. Rising out of caves and undeveloped lands, humans have built cities and homes that the early generations could never have imagined. The widespread growth of globalization has made it harder for historic cultures to be preserved. This is what makes the Dukha people of Mongolia so fascinating and amazing. The nomadic trib
Robots that create offshoots of themselves could be a future tool for science and medicine. Xenobots are synthetic lifeforms made from clusters of stem cells scraped from African clawed frog embryos. Douglas Blackiston and Sam Kriegman In nature most organisms reproduce by either mating and producing offspring, or creating clones of themselves.

Doggerland, now submerged beneath the North Sea, connected Britain to continental Europe around 11,000 years ago.
