  4. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🦔🍼 A short beaked #echidna at the #SanDiegoZoo Safari Park gave birth to two #puggles in one season, a rarity for #monotremes.

    One puggle is raised naturally while the other, which struggled to gain weight, is hand reared by veterinarians with #ultrasound monitoring. Echidna #puggles start life weighing about 350 mg – that's less than half a mini-marshmallow!

  5. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 👨‍🚀🤰 A #space gynecologist examines why human #pregnancy in space remains largely theoretical.

    High #radiation and #microgravity pose serious risks to both parent and fetus, while female #biology is historically underrepresented in space #research. With more #Artemis missions approaching, scientists urgently need more #data before #births beyond #Earth can be considered safe.

  7. Chez les primates, la fin du mythe du mâle dominant

    2 mai 2026 - Magali Reinert

    La féminisation de la primatologie a changé le regard que la science portait sur les rapports entre les sexes de nos lointains parents. Les femelles établissent une domination non par la force, mais en contrôlant la reproduction.

  8. MAKE IT MAKE FUCKING SENSE

    I, who know perfectly well I am not capable of caring for children, choose not to have children. "Passing on" my mental illness / disorders (like autism) isn't even a consideration - if I could care for a child, I would care for them, NO MATTER WHAT - but I do not have the stamina or energy or emotional resources or capacity or any other fucking thing in sufficient amounts to raise even the most normal, "easy" child - SO I DO NOT HAVE CHILDREN.
    AND SOMEHOW THAT'S A "BAD" THING.

    But over here, you have severely mentally ill people AND/OR severely cruel and vicious and dangerous people who have caused SO MUCH HARM to other adults in their lives - never mind children - who are SO FUCKING DESPERATE to pass on their genetic material that they are undergoing FERTILITY TREATMENTS. And successfully getting pregnant.
    And THAT is somehow a "good thing."

    I could just vomit fire.

  9. "[A] reproductive spectacle known as masting [is] common to many tree species, but European beeches are unique in their ability to synchronize this behavior on a continental scale. From England to Sweden to Italy — across multiple seas, time zones and climates — somehow these trees “know” when to reproduce. But how?"

  10. A behavioural crisis is driving ecological overshoot and threatens the fabric of complex life on Earth

    "We explore three drivers of the behavioural crisis in depth: economic growth; marketing; and pronatalism. These three drivers directly impact the three ‘levers’ of overshoot: consumption, waste and population...The evidence indicates that anthropogenic ecological overshoot stems from a crisis of maladaptive human behaviours...We have in place to deliver a framework for shifting social norms and other necessities for addressing the behavioural crisis."
    journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.11

    "Where discussion of climate often centres on carbon emissions,
    a focus on overshoot highlights the materials usage, waste output and growth of human society, all of which affect the Earth’s biosphere. Just one-quarter of the world population is responsible for nearly three-quarters of emissions...Solutions that do not tackle the underlying drivers of our growth-based economies will only exacerbate the overshoot crisis."

    "The system is driving us to suicide. It’s conquest, entitlement, misogyny, arrogance and it comes in a fetid package driving us to the abyss.”
