Animal biotechnology is a branch of biotechnology in which molecular biology techniques are used to genetically engineer (i.e. modify the genome of) animals in order to improve their suitability ...

Moreover, the triangular Pareto front persists in endothermic animals, internal fertilizers, mammals, and birds, indicating similar evolutionary strategies within tetrapods. The Pareto front is ...

Published in Nature Communications, the study reveals a diverse ecosystem of early land-dwelling animals and plants, shedding new light on a historically underexplored period. The fossil site, called ...

Tetrapods are vertebrates (animals with a backbone) that share specific anatomical features, including the presence of a humerus (forelimb bones), a femur (hindlimb bones) and lungs. Few ...

Now, a team of roboticists, paleontologists and biologists is using robots to study how the ancestors of modern land animals transitioned from swimming to walking, about 390 million years ago.

“To our knowledge, it is the first time that animal life has been discovered in the ocean crust,” Sabine Gollner, a marine biologist at the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea ...

At first glance, the giant tetrapod dinosaur, Cryolophosaurus, looks like a terrifying T-rex. Closer inspection reveals that the 21-foot predator is covered in feathers instead of scales, and sports a ...

When life seems a little too serious, there's nothing like animal jokes to make you roar (or hoot or howl) with laughter I’ve been a stand-up and improv comic for 30 years, and I know for a fact ...

The length of the Northern Breakwater is 831m and is partially completed up to 560m. Tetrapod casting is in progress, and the placing of tetrapods at the southern breakwater is substantially ...

The 550-million-year-old Quaestio simpsonorum is the first fossil to show a definitive left-right asymmetry, an important sign of evolutionary development in the history of animals. In 1947 ...
