Additional thoughts on collecting amphibians and reptiles, animal rights philosophy and the relationships between humans and other speciesMurphy, John C
The researchers confirmed that the virus could bind to the receptor in pigs and also was able to bind to the receptor in human cells and to cells from cats and chickens. For now, the only known infection in humans and other species is in the laboratory, using cultured cells. "We know f...
However, several carnivores and other species may take advantage of urban resources and new habitats, and they are increasing their populations. Furthermore, the stone marten (Martes foina) is known to be adapted to urbanised habitats for centuries (Wereszczuk et al., 2017). More recently, ...
Since civilization began and animal husbandry became a critical strategy for survival, drinking milk from other species, especially cows and buffalo, has become commonplace amongst many of our communities. But, are we alone using the milk that other species produce for their progeny to indulge our ...
some ant and a few termite species are the only animals other than humans to reach populations in the low millions. More remarkable still are the even smaller number of ant species with societies that expand as long as the environment permits (competing species or an inappropriate climate can ...
some of the other human speciesthat inhabited their new, colder home. Among these were the now-extinctDenisovans, who endowed modern humans with genes that might have helped us adapt to the cold while at the same time increasing our susceptibility to schizophrenia and other mental health ...
way other animals do not. Most predators target common species, since they are easier to find and catch. Humans, however, tend to covet the novel. “The more rare it is,” says Cooke, “the more that drives up the price, and therefore it can spiral and go into this e...
humans and other species that benefit from free mate choice led us to hypothesize that it also confers reproductive benefits in Homo sapiens. To test this hypothesis, we conducted a study among three indigenous societies—the Tsimane’, Yali, and Bhotiya—who employ natural birth control. In ...
Do you know that humans aren’t the only species (物种) that use language? Bees communicate by dancing. Whales talk to each other by singing. And some apes (类人猿) talk to humans by using American Sign Language. A female gorilla (大猩猩), Koko, was born at the San Francisco Zoo on...
