One of the coolest carcass photos I've ever seen — a bowmouth guitarfish recently washed up in Western Australia.

We had our first “dinner” in the gas oven this last weekend - roast beef, mashed potatoes, peas, raspberries & cream. Such elegance! 11/12/56

mystics have always said that the universe is a song but they forgot to mention that the song in question is actually a banger

Bir biyolog, ormandaki bir mantarın biyolojik aktivitesini synthesizer’a bağladı. Mantardan gelen sinyaller, enstrümandan müzik olarak duyuldu.

Sound on please ! Hornbills are calling ! How many Great Hornbills are too many ! Surely never enough! A gathering like this is called a ‘congregation’, and what a stunning congregation this is ! Somewhere in in the Anamalai landscape in Tamil Nadu there is a precious stronghold for these iconic birds, whose future rests in the great old trees in the last remaining rainforests. These magical moments are captured by @dhanu_paran #GreatHornbills #Hornbills #wildlifeconservation #BirdsofIndia

Exactly as Glasfurd drew them in early 1900s somewhere around Bastar. With large horns and near water bodies.

The sheer size of horns you see on these central Indian wild water buffaloes man. Just awe-inspiring 🐃

This planktonic copepod, Corycaeus anglicus, has been infected by parasites and eaten from within. Watch them escape from the dead copepod's body to continue their lifecycle. (Parasitology and the evolutionary arms race between parasite and host is a fascinating topic in biology, at least I think so 🙂.) @zeiss_micro @natgeo

Just like this tardigrade, we're shedding our skin and heading onward into the weekend — no eggs here, though. The only thing we leave behind is punny captions! bit.ly/4i4Et7O Credit: Dr. Gonzalo Quiroga Artigas
