You know what our recent paper on early life adversity and #dog #behaviour DOESN'T say? Anything about pit-bull type dogs. No mention by us at all, @sciencex.bsky.social. So... how did they earn a callout for aggression and fear in your piece? phys.org/news/2025-10... 1/idk, as many as it takes π§ͺ

A coyote perches on a few, small moss-covered ledges sticking out from an otherwise pretty shear limestone cliff. Boreal trees grow on the edges and on top of the cliffs.
A coyote perches on a few, small moss-covered ledges sticking out from an otherwise pretty shear limestone cliff. It's looking down at other coyotes (out of frame) on the ground. Boreal trees grow on the edges and on top of the cliffs.
A large coyote with a decent-sized fish in its mouth pauses in its climb up a limestone cliff. It's partially obscured by the frees growing on the cliffs.
As it turns out, coyotes are good climbers. They loped up and down these limestone cliffs like they were mountain goats. #mammals πΏ

Whale vocalizations not only resemble human vowels, but also behave like ones!
We previously discovered that sperm whales have analogues to human vowels.
In a new preprint, we analyze linguistic behavior of whale vowels.
