Newly discovered fanged-frog gives birth to live tadpoles

Tehran - FNA

Scientists have discovered a rare frog in Indonesia that gives birth to live tadpoles, researchers report in a journal article published this week. For the first time, frogs have been seen giving birth to tadpoles. Most frogs lay eggs and although some species give birth to froglets, newborn tadpoles are new to science. This species of fanged frog lives on

Birds slur their words when they're drunk

Los Angeles - UPI

New research suggest birds have trouble singing and calling after a few too many drinks. That's right, drunk birds slur their words. As part of a massive effort to plot the most extensive avian family tree, researchers decided to test the effects of alcohol on communication skills. Because zebra finches are often used to better understand vocal learning in humans,

Bears, wolves, wolverines and lynx on the rise in Europe

Uppsala - UPI

Europe, more densely populated and roughly half the size of the United States, has nearly double the population of grey wolves. And they aren't the only species thriving there. A range of once vulnerable large predator species have rebounded in Europe, according to a new study published this week in Science. In addition to wolves, stable populations of brown bears,

10 years on, lessons of Asian tsunami hit by 'disaster amnesia'

Phuket - AFP

Ten years after the deadliest tsunami on record wrought destruction across the Indian Ocean, creeping complacency is undermining a hi-tech warning system designed to prevent another disaster of such shocking magnitude. In the morning of December 26, 2004 a 9.3-magnitude earthquake off Indonesia's western coast generated a series of massive waves that killed more than 220,000 people across 14 countries

Pearl diving still alive and kicking

Abu Dhabi - Arab Today

Ali was eight years old when he went on his maiden pearl diving trip in the centuries-old tradition of his forefathers. Like most boys of his age in those days, Ali boarded the dhow with dreams in his eyes and excitement in his heart, beginning his tryst with the sea that became his life-long fascination. That was way back in

Oceans laden with 269,000 tons of plastic

Miami - AFP

The world's oceans are laden with nearly 269,000 tons of plastic pollution, international researchers said on Wednesday after a six-year study of conditions across the globe. The findings in the journal PLOS ONE show that larger plastic debris usually lingers around the coast, but gets churned into tiny particles further from shore. These micro-plastics then make their way into the

Spain's Canary islanders protest against oil drilling

Corralejo - AFP

About 200 people, including tourists, formed a giant "SOS" on a beach on Spain's Canary Islands on Sunday to protest against drilling for oil off the archipelago. Activists staged the protest at the resort of Corralejo on the north coast of Fuerteventura after bad weather forced them to cancel plans to send a flotilla to a site where Spanish oil

Fire damages 750 year old oak tree in Poland

Warsaw - SPA

A suspected arson fire in southwestern Poland has damaged a 750-year-old oak tree believed to be the country's oldest, AP reported. The deputy chief forest ranger in Szprotawa, Jerzy Wilanowski, said Monday that firefighters battled the blaze for more than 30 hours last week using water and foam. Foresters noticed the fire Tuesday morning. Wilanowski said that authorities will know

Researchers reveal ancient relative of horses and rhinos

Washington - UPI

Some 55 million years ago, the Indian subcontinent was still a floating island, making its way to a dramatic tectonic collision with Asia. About the time, scientists say, an animal dubbed Cambaytherium thewissi emerged. According to a new study, Cambaytherium is an ancient cousin of horses, rhinos and tapirs -- a group (or order) of modern animals known as Perissodactyla,

Researchers disturbed by seal-on-penguin rape

Washington - UPI

Nature is a strange and cruel place. At least that's the takeaway from recent evidence that fur seals are sexually assaulting penguins on Marion Island, a sub-Antarctic island where the two species often share the beaches. In the latest issue of the journal Polar Biology, scientists reveal the unusual sexual act (seal on top of penguin) has been observed more

New Zealand researchers identify ancient whale species

Willington - XINHUA

New Zealand researchers said Wednesday they have identified a previously unknown whale group that lived 27 million to 25 million years ago. The finding by University of Otago paleontologists was based on fragments of two fossilized skulls found in a rock formation in the north of the South Island's Otago region, preserved from a time when the continent of Zealandia

Small islands may amplify tsunamis

Paris - AFP

Small islands, long thought to be natural tsunami barriers for coast-dwellers, may in fact amplify the waves they are supposed to break, researchers warned Wednesday. The findings are of concern, for many coastal communities have settled in areas traditionally believed to be shielded from waves by offshore islands. But simulations of wave motion found that some of these communities

China fish species down 70% in 40 years

Beijing - XINHUA

The number of inshore fish species in Shandong Province has dropped by 72.5 percent from over 400 in the 1970s to about 110 currently, provincial authorities said Thursday. According to the provincial government, the shrinking of inshore fish resources is the result of over-fishing and water pollution. Major pollutants were inorganic chloride, active phosphate and petroleum. Some of them have
