The history of LEGO® brand products is rich and varied. Starting back in 1934 (and even earlier if you recognize the ups and downs of the early starts of an emerging company), LEGO began producing assembly-enabled plastic blocks by 1949.

Biological evolution can be a controversial topic. But most people who oppose it do so based on misconceptions about what evolution is and how it works.

Nature is under threat from deforestation, a rapidly changing climate, human encroachment, and wildlife crime. These human-led hazards are leading to unprecedented biodiversity loss and endangering global human health, as spotlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Griffin and Athena at breakfast. Athena watches as Griffin gets something to eat; she will get something next—they take turns, mostly patiently.

It’s the end of the world as we know it and birds and crocodilians will be fine? How is it possible that they survived the extinction event that killed all of their closest relatives including all of the non-avian dinosaurs? Let’s take a look at what exactly killed the other dinosaurs and what made birds

Tyrannosaurus rex is probably the most famous of all dinosaurs, and the largest land predator to have ever lived on Earth. That said, there is so much about T-Rex that you don’t yet know, but that you will never be able to unsee after today. And what are the other members of the Tyrannosaurid family?

Turtles are, as a group, pretty unusual reptiles. They have a shell, their head and limbs can go inside of their ribcages, they have a beak instead of teeth. They are weird! But among the turtles, there are a few that are particularly weird. One of the weirdest is the Fly River turtle, also called

Wild type reptiles are very cool, but there are also an incredible variety of unusual and beautiful morphs like albino, piebald, leucistic, hypo, etcetera that are dazzling to behold.

Reptiles make great pets for sure, but do they make the best pets of all? Many people would argue that they do not. So are they right, or are they wrong? Let’s let science decide!
