Rare Insect Makes Remarkable Comeback from Near-Extinction

Biology, Science /

Just 20 to 30 ‘tree lobsters’ are left in their natural habitat, and this vulnerable group was found again in 2001, 80 years after being thought extinct. The wild Lord Howe Island stick insects (Dryococelus australis) currently cling to survival on Ball’s Pyramid, a nearly vertical volcanic outcrop. San Diego Zoo now welcomes visitors to

The Indian Plate Could Be Undergoing a Split Similar to East Africa’s Division

Earth Science, Geology, Science /

A new study proposes that the Indian Continental Plate may be undergoing a unique form of splitting, not vertically like East Africa, but horizontally as it converges with Eurasia. This unconventional process could create two layers, each approximately 100 kilometers (60 miles) thick. Understanding the Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau: Seeking Clarity Despite the Himalayas being
