While the cause of the Ice Age still remains a mystery for mainstream scientists, the frozen mammoth carcasses found in Siberia have also challenged our imagination for centuries. These carcasses sometimes come with skin, hair, and internal organs including the heart intact with blood inside. Reports of these discoveries intrigue everyone, for different reasons. One island in the New Siberian Islands, off the Arctic Ocean coast, is described as mostly mammoth bones. Over the years, a lucrative ivory trade developed as thousands of tons of ivory tusks have been unearthed and exported from Siberia. Scientists struggle to understand why these…

The appearance of this strange alien-like creature with the funniest face in the world has left the world in awe.

Its appearance has prompted many to dub it as the world’s funniest-looking creature.  Scientists are still studying…

Scientists studying the Great Barrier Reef in Australia have made an exciting discovery – a rare species of pink stingrays that can only be found in this region. .The stingrays, which are a beautiful shade of pink, have been observed in small groups swimming in the shallow waters of the reef. This discovery is significant because it provides new insights into the diversity of marine life in the Great Barrier Reef, which is one of the most biodiverse regions in the world. It also highlights the importance of protecting and preserving natural habitats, as they provide a home for unique…

The megamouth shark is a rare shark and a large species, reaching weights of 2700 pounds (1215 kg). However, it is the smallest of the three species of filter-feeding sharks, behind the whale shark and the basking shark. The megamouth shark gets its name from the remarkably large, circular mouth. The megamouth has a brownish-blackish color on top and white underneath, a broadly rounded snout, and a distinctive large head with rubbery lips. They can grow to 18 feet in length. The capture in a drift net of a megamouth shark in California in 1990 was very important in understanding the…

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has stressed that his side’s shock 7-0 loss to Liverpool was nothing like the 4-0 loss to Brentford early in the season. Back in Ten Hag’s second game in charge, United were comprehensively thumped by Brentford but the boss had overseen a massive improvement in performance before Sunday’s catastrophic loss at Anfield. Despite obvious concerns over United’s away form and ability to deal with setbacks, Ten Hag insisted the two results told different stories. “The result is quite obvious,” Ten Hag said. “It’s unprofessional. “But I think it’s a huge difference from Brentford. We were 4-0…

Luka Dončić was reportedly a driving force behind the Dallas Mavericks’ Feb. 6 acquisition of Kyrie Irving in a trade with the Brooklyn Nets. Per ESPN’s Tim MacMahon and Brian Windhorst, Dončić was privately “pushing the front office” to bring in a second All-Star-level player to help the Mavs try to win a championship because he had “grown frustrated” with the team’s performance this season. It’s not a surprise that Dončić wanted something to change before the trade deadline. MacMahon reported Jan. 18 that the 24-year-old “has strongly indicated he wants the Mavs to upgrade” their roster. Dallas has spent most of…

Egypt is well-known for tombs holding the preserved remains of a number of its rulers, and examples of Egyptian mummies can be found around the world in various museums. But that’s not the only place where mummies have been uncovered. There are burial sites around the world where the inhabitants have been preserved for thousands of years. Here are a few that are worth knowing about. Chauchilla Cemetery in Peru contains pre-Hispanic (prior to Spanish conquests) remains, according to Peru Top 10. The cemetery was discovered in the 1920s, and was used for 600-700 years, ending in the 9th century.…

Bodies were embalmed in the Renaissance not for secular but for religious purposes. Hundreds of burials discovered in a convent in Brittany, France, have shed new light on medieval and Renaissance funerary practices. Archaeologists have identified mummified corpses, as well as hearts and brains extracted from the deceased bodies that suggest that burials were still deeply rooted in superstition and religious belief. In 2015, a team from the French national institute for preventive archaeology (INRAP) fully excavated the Jacobin convent in the city of Rennes, which had been founded in 1368 and served as primary burial site for the local…

An extraordinary discovery is reported from the area of Mány, a town in Hungary located in the northeast of Fejér County, Hungary.

In all the animal interactions we’ve seen, playtime between a dolphin and an anaconda might just be the weirdest. But that’s just what researchers found on a recent trip to Bolivia. The group originally embarked on their project near the Tijamuchi River with the goal of documenting biodiversity. Their interest was piqued when they spotted the elusive Bolivian river dolphin. This species is rarely documented due to the river’s murky nature as well as the dolphin’s tendency to spend much of its time underwater. But on this lucky day when the dolphins lifted their heads above the water, researchers had…

The largest known insect of all time is a creature that will leave you in awe. With a wingspan of 2.5 ft (75 cm), this insect is truly massive – it’s about the size of a small bird! The insect belongs to a group called Meganisoptera, which lived during the Permian era around 300 million years ago. These insects are now extinct, but their fossils provide scientists with fascinating insights into prehistoric life. Despite their incredible size, Meganisoptera were skilled fliers. Their wings were strong and flexible, allowing them to soar through the air with ease. Scientists believe that they…

The mutant piglet with a “worm body” and no legs has captured the attention of many. The piglet was born with a rare genetic mutation that caused its spine to curl, making it look like a worm.

Despite its unique appearance, the piglet is able to move around using its curled spine and has even learned to use its snout to dig for food. Scientists are interested in studying the piglet’s mutation to better understand how genetic mutations can…

Dos formas recién descubiertas de agua salada congelada podrían ayudar a los científicos a resolver un misterio relacionado con las lunas cubiertas de hielo del Sistema Solar . Cuando se someten a presiones más altas y temperaturas más bajas que las que se pueden encontrar en la naturaleza en la Tierra, los átomos del cloruro de sodio hidratado, más comúnmente conocido como hielo de agua salada, se organizan en estructuras nunca antes identificadas que tienen una proporción mucho mayor de moléculas de agua. que la sal Esto podría explicar la extraña firma química de una sustancia en la superficie de la luna Europa de Júpiter ,…

Harry Maguire is one of a number of first team players Manchester United are willing to sell this summer in order to support reinvestment into the squad for next season, 90min understands. Maguire, now 30, remains the world’s most expensive defender after he joined United from Leicester for £80m in 2019, but has fallen down the pecking order under current manager Erik ten Hag – who is favouring a central defensive partnership of Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez. Installed as club captain by former manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Maguire himself has admitted to finding it difficult to come to terms with playing on the…

According to researchers one of the skeletons had an elongated head that exceeds the proportions of an artificial cranial deformation, raising the question what could have caused such atypical features? Finnish archaeologists working near the village of Patapatani in Bolivia, recently found the remains of at least six individuals buried under an Aymara funerary tower which was built, thousands of years ago for people of royal statues in the ancestral culture. Interestingly two of the skeletons were of particular interest. One of the skeletons belonged to a woman and the other one of her baby, nothing out of the ordinary other than the…

Most people associate mummies with Egyptian culture and complex mummification methods designed to bridge the gap between life and death, resulting in bodily preservation. While most mummies discovered today are the result of this procedure, there have been rare instances where a mummified body is the result of natural preservation rather than purposeful preservation. In 2011, Chinese road workers discovered the extremely well-preserved remains of a woman dating back 700 years to the Ming Dynasty. This finding shed light on the Ming Dynasty’s way of life while also raising numerous doubts. Who was this lady? And how did she survive…
