As the cost-of-living crisis bites into our household budgets, growing or foraging food can save you money.
It’s mushroom season in many parts of Australia. Here’s what you need to know before you go foraging.
Scientists are learning that diversity has many perks – whether in multispecies groups of animals or human society.
Almost all theories of human bipedalism explain it as a terrestrial adaptation. A new study does not support that view.
If you ever feel like you can’t stop eating sugar, you are responding precisely as programmed by natural selection. What was once an evolutionary advantage has a different effect today.
Polar bears are being forced to adapt their feeding habits due to climate change – so reports of summer scavenging, foraging and terrestrial hunting are unsurprising.
We studied 8,000 primate teeth and finally confirmed that humans are not the only living primate to suffer from cavities. But there are interesting differences.
How do squirrels leap through trees without falling? It takes strength, flexibility and finely tuned cognitive skills.
By measuring how and when elephant seals sleep, researchers were able to figure out how elephant seals change their risk-taking behavior as they gain weight.
New research suggests individual bees are born with one of two learning styles – either curious or focused. Their genetic tendency has implications for how the hive works together.
The Superb Lyrebird is famous for its song and dance, but what is less known is their extraordinary role as world-class ecosystem engineers.
