Authorities confirm bird flu in fox and suspected case in dolphin
By Jarrod Whittaker

A fox in Victoria's south-west has died from H5 bird flu and authorities suspect the virus is responsible for the death of a dolphin.

🕷️ A jumping spider that nurses its young with milk — 4x the protein of cow's milk

Female Toxeus magnus spiders secrete a milk-like fluid from their egg-laying opening for nearly 40 days after hatching. Newborns drink nothing else for the first 20 days and die within 11 days if the mother's milk supply is blocked.

Even after spiderlings learn to hunt at day 20, they keep nursing alongside their own kills for another three weeks. Daughters are allowed to return to the nest after reaching adulthood, but adult sons are attacked if they try.

This subverts the long-held assumption that lactation and extended milk-provisioning are exclusive to mammals.

Zoo's baby chimpanzee to be sent elsewhere after mother's rejection

Zookeepers had to hand-rear baby Cassie after the chimpanzee was dropped by its mother hours after birth, breaking its leg. After failed reunion attempts the zoo said it's in the primate's best interest to send it elsewhere.

During the Late Pleistocene, ancient cave hyenas (Crocuta spelaea) in the Ural region actively hunted and consumed large herbivores, including bison, giant deer, and woolly rhinoceroses, rather than exclusively scavenging remains left by other predators.

#Birdsong and #WhaleSong show patterns similar to #HumanLanguage

by University of Edinburgh

edited by Sadie Harley, reviewed by Robert Egan

"An international team of researchers has uncovered a previously undetected structure in the birdsong of #BengaleseFinches that has the same statistical patterns found in human languages.

"The songbirds—famous for their complex, learned songs—organize their songs using the same mathematical formula found in human speech, a trait that has developed over time and makes complex communication easier to learn and pass from one generation to the next.

"The findings, published in the journal Science Advances, build on the team's previous discovery that #HumpbackWhales also rely on a similar systematic structure.

Language has long been considered a uniquely human trait, with features that mark it as distinct from the communication of all other species.

The findings suggest that some of language's most fundamental building blocks may not be uniquely human after all, but rather a universal feature of learned communication, the researchers say."
