In the sweltering African heat, a weary new𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 impala merely wanted to satisfy its thirst. However, the 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥’s choice had serious repercussions when it was discovered by a hungry crocodile. The small infant was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 during a severe drought in Sᴏᴜᴛʜ Aғʀɪᴄᴀ’s Kruger National Park, where animals were battling to find enough water to sustain them.

Wildlife photographer Karen van Damme captured the depressing sᴄᴇɴᴇ in a number of pictures. He said that…

Joao Ismael da Silva, a paleontology technician at the Federal University of Triangular Mineiro Ivor Price Paleontological Research Center, made the discovery in the 1990s, but the results of the analysis of the fossilized eggs have just been published.

Anyone a fan of ‘How To Train Your Dragon’? We know, totally random, but the main dragon was named Toothless. Just like him, we a unique species of ‘toothless’ dinosaurs that are 110 million years old in Australia have been found. Named Elaphrosaur, this has been discovered by palaeontologists in Australia. The toothless dinosaur was identified by a team led by Swinburne University of Technology palaeontologist Dr Stephen Poropat. It’s known for having long necks, stumpy arms and small hands, and it probably didn’t survive on meat. Picture Credits: gdnonline.com The Dinosaur Is Believed To Have Roamed In Australia Around…

Dinosaur hunters have uncovered a 6.5-foot thigh bone probably belonging to a giant sauropod in France. The enormous femur was dug up in a fossil-rich area in Charente, and dates back 140 million years. Sauropods are the largest herbivorous dinosaurs known to date — and include diplodocus, brachiosaurus and brontosaurus. They first appeared in the late Triassic Period, but this particular dino is from the Jurassic era. It was discovered “nestled” in a thick layer of clay by volunteers from the National Museum of Natural History. The bone itself weighs an incredible 500 kilograms (1,102 pounds) — just heavier than…

Construction Of The Thessaloniki Metro Has Led To The Discovery Of Countiless Archaeological Treasures From The Ancient City Of Thessaloniki. Thessaloniki was founded around 315 BC by King Cassander of Macedon, who named the city after his wife, Thessalonike, the half-sister of Alexander the Great, serving as the primary port for the regions of Macedonia and Thrace in present-day Greece. After the fall of the Kingdom of Macedon in 168 BC, the city was renamed Thessalonica by the Roman Republic, emerging as an important trading hub on the Via Egnatia, a Roman road that connected Byzantium (later Constantinople) with Dyrrhachium. With…

As many of you are aware, having kids never gets boring! But it appears to be effective for both people and wildlife. The conflict between the father and one of his young pups in this family of lions from the Washington National Zoological Park became too violent. Everyone believes he is the king of the animals. As this amusing incident demonstrates, there is actually a different person in authority here. The male was severely reprimanded by the lioness with attitude for attempting to punish the pup. Jennifer Lockridge, a 42-year-old amateur photographer, witnesses a humorous event while recording an argument…

The Crystal Mountain (28° 26′ E and 27° 39′ N) between the oasis Bahariya and Farafra, northern of the White Desert, Egypt. The Crystals are probably Barite (Schwerspat, BaSO4) and/or Calcite crystals (CaCO3). The hill was opened during works at the road from Farafra to Bahariya by accident and destroyed in part. The hill is not a paleokarst cave with columnar-shaped stalagmites. It is a subvolcanic vault, which was emerged probably during the Oligocene age. The visible layers are e.g. White Desert limestone of the Khoman Fm.* (Late Cretaceous age), as well as a younger coal seam and hydrothermal impregnated reddish…

The story below about the love and care of a lion husband will definitely melt your heart. The pair of lions, Leo and Muñeca have been together most of their lives.

You may be familiar with the song ‘Monster Mash,’ but you’ve probably never imagined it quite like this. An elephant family stomped and snacked on over 1,200 pounds of pumpkins! Do you know how much a typical elephant weighs? Thanks to growers Larry Nelson and Jim Paino, the annual ‘Squishing of the Squash’ occurred again, to the delight of the elephants. When an elephant takes one single step, the pumpkin is crushed under its weight. Then, the elephants grab the seeds from inside the pumpkins using their trunks. They destroy the pumpkins, and they eat the insides. A crowd of…

A prehistoric fossilized brain is baffling and exciting scientists. Ever since archaeology became a respected scientific discipline, teams have uncovered everything from tools to tombs, skeletons of man, and bones belonging to dinosaurs, animals, and long-extinct species like woolly mammoths. But actual organs have been elusive, largely because organic matter simply can’t be preserved so it will last for any length of time. Whether they belong to human, animal or marine life — organs are made of organic material and simply break down eventually. Brain matter, specifically, has been so susceptible to decay that even the ancient Egyptians, masters of…
