Aldabra, a coral atoll in the Indian Ocean, has a flightless bird that evolved there. Twice. More than 100,000 years ago the whole atoll went underwater, and every rail on it died. Yet today the Aldabra rail is the last flightless bird left in the Indian Ocean. 1/3

Bird songs share surprising similarities with human music and speech, according to a large-scale study comparing vocalizations across hundreds of bird species and dozens of human languages. The findings in Science suggest that these similarities may arise partly from shared biological mechanisms, rather than vocal learning ability alone. Learn more: scim.ag/4ikVRUr

Presenting the Hoatzin or the stink bird from the Amazonas. Genetic studies show it belongs to an ancient lineage that split from other birds roughly 64 million years ago, around the time the dinosaurs became extinct. #BirdsSeenIn2026

Gola, a Hauz Khas street dog, won Fat Dogs of Delhi at a reported 75 kg. She died before the final, and couldn't have cared less for it. A 75 kg community dog is certainly not a healthy dog. Overweight or underweight, dogs tend to suffer at both ends. dogwithblog.in/fat-dogs-of-d…
Fat Dogs of Delhi: Gola won. Now look for the thin dog on your lane

Fat Dogs of Delhi: Gola won. Now look for the thin dog on your lane

Fat Dogs of Delhi winner Gola, a 75 kg Hauz Khas street dog, won by nearly 40,000 votes. What her weight means, and how to help thin dogs nobody votes for.
