If and , “it just kind of blows down the walls of what we think about humanity being so special,” behavioral Teresa Iglesias says. There’s still debate over what REM is even for. “No one really knows what the function of sleep is — non-REM or REM,” says Paul Shaw, a neuroscientist at Washington University in St. Louis.

More bucket list creatures from Dumaguete! Flamboyant cuttlefish walk around the sea floor looking for small fish and crustaceans. When they find one, they slowly extend their two specialized feeding arms and snap out in the blink of an eye to grab their prey. A fellow diver and I spent 20 minutes with a single cuttlefish watching it walk and feed repeatedly. Video coming soon!

gets complicated, the process by which cuttlefish generate those camouflage patterns is significantly more complex than scientists previously thought. They receive constant feedback about their skin pattern and adjust camouflage accordingly. arstechnica.com/science/2023/0

I follow a bunch of hourly animal bots because the animal photos on my feed make me happy. But where are my hourly manatees at?... Or hourly cuttlefish?

Octopuses are like aliens living among us. Their tentacles can taste. Their skin detects light. They are masters of disguise. And they can edit their genetic instructions with astounding abandon.

They can modify RNA while leaving their DNA intact.

Voilà donc le son produit par l’os de seiche que j’ai ramassé sur le rivage après l’avoir fixé à une caisse de résonance puis fait passer par un looper et quelques pédales d’effets :
