Fact #1:::: found in Belize Cerrado. And is not a type of snake... Lizard Family.
Fact #2:::: Swims in dirt.
Fact #3:::: The lizard part of a separate evolutionary line from snakes is one of 14 species believed new to science discovered on a four-week expedition to a 1.77 million-acre protected area in the Cerrado. The team also found several threatened and rare species.
Fact 1: This legless repitle was recently discovered in central Brazil’s Cerrado.
Fact 2: This lizard’s lack of legs and sharply pointed snout help itg swim within the sandy soils.
Fact 3: This lizard, part of a separate evolutionary line from snakes, is one 14 species believed new to science discovered on a four-week expedition to a 1.77-million-acre protected area in the Cerrado.
Summary: I learned scientists are finding new species everyday in the world. I think it is cool that we are finding because we can be more aware of dangerous or nondangerous species. It looks exactly like a snake but evidently the DNA doesn’t.
Treasure - Laden Shipwreck Found off African Coast
Fact #1 - A 500-year-old shipwreck has been found off the coast of southern Africa.
Fact #2 - It laden with tons of copper ingots, elephant tusks, gold coins, and cannons to fend off pirates.
Fact #3 - The wreck was recently discovered by geologists prospecting for diamonds off the coast of Namibia.
I learned that geologists found a 500 year old shipwreck when they were trying to find diamonds of the coast of Namibia. I also learned that it laden with tons of copper ingots.
fact#1: widely assumed that Neanderthals ate more than just meat.
fact#2: microfossils of plant material were found in a Neanderthal teeth.
fact#3: It might have been that just that certain Neanderthal ate plants.
In Iraq, the first direct evidence that Neanderthals ate more than just meat was discovered. The lead study author, Amanda Henry, said that the Neanderthal was estimated to have teeth 50,000 years old. I thought it was really strange that people found things in the teeth for how old the skull was. It was under the earth, though, so it was preserved well and wasn’t bothered.
fact #1: Long-biller vulture are down by 97% since early 1990’s. fact#2: The drug given to livestock has poisoned Vultures. fact#3: Will be dead within the decade.
It is sad to see how drugs given to animals are not specifically cared for, and watched so no other animal can get it if it is harmful to them. People need to tae better care of animals and containing the drug so no other animal can be harmed.
Fact 3-It is one of 14 species of snakes and it is protected in Belize.
Scientists found a legless lizard in Belize Cerrado. It can swim in mud and dirt with its back tail. It is related with some sankes and is a protected animal in Belize Cerrado.
FACT #1: New research has shown that Neanderthals had mouths that they could open really wide. FACT #2: The team that found this out was not able to measure exactly how wide Neanderthals could open their mouths. FACT #3: Yoel Rak and William Hylander are the professors from Duke University that figured this out. WHAT I LEARNED: They say that this could be an adaptation because of the large food that Neanderthals ate. Neanderthals ate their veggies.
