🌱🏜️ Most plants die in a few years, but Welwitschia mirabilis can live for two millennia in the world's harshest #desert.

'Their resilience is a lesson to us all': The maritime #lions hunting #seals on the #beach
In #Namibia, a group of #desert lions have left their traditional hunting grounds for the #Atlantic coast, to become the world's only #maritimelions.

@washingtonpost
Scientists inch closer to learning origins of mysterious ‘fairy circles'"He published his initial study on the topic in 2000, in which he named the phenomenon “fairy circles” because of its vague similarity of “fairy rings” of mushrooms often seen in forests. (The two are not related except in name, and neither were created by fairies.)" 🤭
