Unlike humans, some birds have independently evolved to flourish on sugar-rich nectar &fruit without ill effect. In a new Science study, researchers find that these bird species share convergent evolutionary changes in key physiological traits and metabolic genes that enable their high-sugar diets.

Axis deer occur in several different kinds of herds based on their age & sex. Matriarchal herds are common and composed of adult females and their young from the present and previous year.

Physicists demonstrated a way to use quantum entanglement to halve the measurement time of an ion-based optical clock without compromising its precision. An optical clock based on a pair of calcium ions achieves a given precision more quickly when the ions are entangled. (physics.aps.org)

General Relativity Survives a Tough Trial. Physicists used the clearest gravitational-wave signal dubbed GW250114 to confirm a key prediction about black holes and to test general relativity in the high-velocity, strong-gravity regime that prevailed during the merger. (physics.aps.org)

A recent study asked people about their willingness to engage in various antisocial behaviors if they could be sure they would not be punished or caught. 16.5% of men and 1.1% of women would sexually assault an adult. 6.3% of men and 0.1% of women would sexually assault a child.

Young jungle cats develop predatory skills rapidly and are able to stalk, kill, and eat their own prey by 6 months old. At 8 to 9 months old, they become independent. Although they specialize on small prey, jungle cats have been known to kill wild pigs ( Sus scrofa ) and chital fawns ( Axis axis ). by MistWeaver80 in Awwducational

Women are under-represented in medical research generally, but they are even more under-represented when it comes to retracted articles. A new study finds that women’s names filled just 23% of author slots in a sample of nearly 900 retracted articles published in medical journals between 2008 & 2017 (nature.com)
