    Elephants treat themselves with medicinal plants, witnesses say (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    African elephants use dozens of different medicinal plants to treat themselves and their families when they are sick. This is the conclusion of a study which interviewed people who live and work alongside the elephants in the Mount Elgon region of Kenya. These particular animals have long intrigued scientists with their extraordinary behaviour - they are known as salt-mining elephants, because they go into caves and scrape the rock with their tusks to extract minerals for their diet.

    Part-human part-mouse brain developed in science breakthrough (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Neuroscientists in the US have successfully adapted mice to have functioning human cells inside their own brains. The researchers hope that potential treatments for psychiatric and neurodevelopmental diseases that only occur in humans could now be tested on the laboratory rodents. While mice with brains that are partly human might sound like a Kafkaesque experiment, the scientists said these are not "mice that think like humans". The animals are genetically engineered - and surgically altered -

    'Miracle' eagle with broken wing soars over Scottish coast (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A sea eagle that confounded experts by surviving into adulthood with a badly broken wing has been spotted back in the skies above Scotland's west coast. The bird was dubbed the Isle of Mull's "miracle eagle" by charity the RSPB after it fell from its nest as a chick during a storm in 2023. Experts that monitor the island's sea eagle population did not expect the male chick to survive, but it has now been spotted three years on - soaring above the island with the distinctive kink in its wing clea
