Today we explore: a fur seal that seems to prefer sex with a King Penguin (!) - pictured at right - , elephant killings in the Congo, Martian life and fossils, a project to DNA Barcode trees, the rediscovery of the cloud rat, a rare parasitic plant from Mexico, the endangered Asian vulture, how spiders communicate sexual intent through UVB rays, a very nasty and dangerous germ (Clostridium difficile - you don't want this thing), Paranthropus bosei, parachuting dogs, the death of Ling Ling, the mysterious die-off of hundreds of Mallards, the mortality of caribou calves, a carcinogen in human milk, and how the Sun might actually create extinctions through its movement and interaction with comets. Please browse on, click and enjoy. We've also added a new link list: Floralinks. Also added today (finally): Dodolinks. Our newest links are listed on the top right hand side of the page.
