The start of spring brings milder temperatures and more time spent outside. This season signals the conclusion of hibernation for Georgia’s black bears and their eagerness to look for nourishment. Experts in Georgia have alerted locals about a rise in black bear observations and provided guidelines to prevent possible interactions with these animals. The Georgia Department of Natural Resources' Wildlife Resources Division notes that numerous wildlife species will be observable by the public, such as black bears searching for sustenance. The black bear population in Georgia is approximately 4,100 across the state, as reported by the Georgia DNR. According to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources' Wildlife Resources Division, being BearWise involves understanding how to act upon encountering a bear. As anticipated, bears will likely be ravenous upon emerging from their winter dens, which typically leads them to seek readily available food sources quickly,...

City-dwelling foxes obtain over 30% of their sustenance from people, sparking worries that these animals might encounter health issues due to consuming processed edibles. Scientists at Nottingham Trent University examined the whiskers of almost 100 foxes and found that food obtained directly or indirectly from humans constituted 35% of urban fox diets, whereas this figure was just 6% for rural foxes. Foxes include a variety of edibles such as small mammals, birds, beetles, grubs, and worms along with fruits and carrion. Especially in urban areas, these animals take advantage of food resources provided by humans, such as thrown-away dishes and scraps, along with items intended for wild creatures like cat and dog chow, uneaten table foods, and seeds meant for birds. However, the researchers cautioned that processed foods, which contain high amounts of saturated fats and refined sugars and grains while offering limited fiber and micronutrient content, might result in adve...

Pandas Famously fond of bamboo, these cuddly creatures possess digestive tracts similar to those of animals with a carnivorous diet. Now, Chinese researchers believe they might understand the reason behind this intriguing fact. It is claimed that indulging in the large, rapidly growing vegetation can affect the hidden predators' actions and control the bears' olfactory and gustatory senses. Originating from southwestern China, pandas consume bamboo for as long as 16 hours each day, with studies released Friday in the journal Frontiers indicating that they absorb a type of genetic material known as microRNA (miRNA) into their blood circulation. The molecule can affect how genetic information moves throughout pandas' bodies, thereby influencing their behavior, according to research led by China West Normal University in Sichuan province. Dr. Li Feng, a senior author from the university, stated, "miRNA has a role in regulating the gene expression of giant ...

5.180.24.3 - Sama seperti manusia, beberapa hewan peliharaan juga disebut bisa bermimpi, termasuk kucing. Namun tentu saja hewan peliharaan tidak bermimpi dengan cara yang sama seperti manusia. Dan diketahui, hanya hewan berbulu atau mamalia yang akan bermimpi. Dikuitp dari 5.180.24.3 (7/3/2024), ini karena spesies mamalia dapat mengalami tahap tidur rapid eye movement (REM), di mana mata bergerak cepat di bawah kelopak mata selama siklus tidur. Hewan mamalia diduga memiliki aktivitas kognitif otak yang sama seperti mimpi manusia dan persepsi mereka saat bangun juga sama seperti manusia. Peliharaan seperti anjing dan kucing disebut bermimpi sesuai hipotesis kontinuitas atau mencerminkan pengalaman mereka sehari-hari. Dilansir dari laman Daily Paws , para ahli mendapatkan gagasan bahwa ada kemungkinan kucing bermimpi justru datang dari penelitian tentang pola tidur tikus. Para peneliti mempelajari otak tikus di laboratorium, untuk menebak bahwa...
