Zoology

And the trade-offs inherent to every twitch

It wasn’t a great time to be a beluga-like whale

It’s very much a family affair

The secretive reptile has confounded researchers for decades

You may be sending the wrong signals

Vindication for Captain Ahab

Leaving female tree frogs with some tough decisions to make

Why not get a cocker spaniel or poodle instead?

These egg-laying oddities are more birdlike than previously thought

And ode to one of nature’s most maligned creatures

Which may help it evade predators

Which may keep them safer from bigger frenemies
