Darwin proposed that a type of plant was carnivorous. Scientists finally proved him right | CNN (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sticky âhairsâ on two plant species in the Saxifraga genus led famed British naturalist Charles Darwin to wonder: Could some plants in this genus be carnivorous? He couldnât prove it then, but more than 150 years later, scientists have shown that Darwinâs suspicions were correct. Darwin proposed in 1875 that Saxifraga rotundifolia and S. umbrosa were insect-eaters; their hairlike structures called glandular trichomes ooze a sticky goo and resemble hairs found in some carnivorous plants.
Ancient human relative âNutcracker Manâ was larger than once thought, fossil footprints reveal | CNN (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Scientists have revised the longstanding picture of âNutcracker Manâ â an extinct hominin, or human relative, nicknamed for its large teeth and powerful jaw muscles â thanks to fresh analysis of fossil footprints from a site in Kenya. Nutcracker Man, whose species is scientifically known as Paranthropus boisei, lived in eastern Africa from about 2.3 million to 1.2 million years ago, and this new evidence suggests that P. boisei was taller and heavier and had more complex social relations
Watch an orca ram a sunfish so hard that the fish explodes | CNN (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How hard do you have to ram a fish to make it explode? Ask an orca. Barreling into large, heavy fish with enough force to blast them into instant chum is a previously unknown collaborative feeding strategy among orcas, scientifically called Orcinus orca, also known as killer whales. But in 2024 and 2025, divers captured underwater video of two such events in the Mexican Pacific Ocean and in the Gulf of California. The footage suggests that the brutal body slamming may be in service of a meal â
Fossils reveal the earliest animal with a head was also the oldest known ârightyâ | CNN (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you happen to be right-handed, you may be able to trace the origins of that trait to a wormlike animal that lived about 550 million years ago and had a tendency to bend to the right. Spriggina floundersi appeared in oceans during the Ediacaran Period (635 million to 542 million years ago) at the dawn of the first forms of animal life. The small creatureâs flat, segmented body, known only from fossils found in whatâs now South Australia, was a stretched-out oval. It tapered to a tip at one
