A complex metabolic process called Chaperone-Mediated-Autophagy (CMA) was thought to be a recent evolutionary development in land vertebrates as it was only previously documented in mammals and birds. Now it has been found to be fully operational in fish—once again demonstrating that a lack of human knowledge is not evidence for evolution.1 Autophagy is an amazingly complex and ingenious process in which cells are … More… …read more Source: icr.org
A recent study published in the journal Frontiers in Earth Science indicates that North America was once home to large populations of camelids (creatures such as camels, llamas, and alpacas) and antelope-like animals.1,2 Once again, we should be amazed with how God has equipped the camel—and its cousins—to dwell and thrive in many parts of the earth.3 More… …read more Source: icr.org

Have Trinidadian guppies learned evasive maneuvers from Spanish bullfighters? Recent research published in the journal Current Biology1 reports how gutsy guppies confront a regular predator, the voracious pike cichlids, like a matador. They attract the attacker to a location that can be dodged from. Then, at the last instant, the guppy pivots to safety.1-3 Trinidadia… More… …read more Source: icr.org
In order for the bizarre theory of evolution to be validated, evolutionists must show how inorganic non-life organized itself into carbon-based (organic) life. They also must show how major transitions in animals occurred, including how fish became the first tetrapods. This means fish fins would need to slowly turn into feet and legs. As one secular journal said, “The evolution of fishes into tetrapods—four-legged vertebrates of which… More… …read more Source: icr.org

The social behavior of ants continues to amaze scientists with its complexity and efficiency of organization and design. In a new study, scientists have shown how ant communities foraging for food and other resources embody a complex system of behavior and path marking that creates an optimized search with minimal waste of energy and time.1 The information gleaned from this study was then applied to the design of computer search algori… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham When we think rainforests, we think tropical, sunshine (and lots of it), and frequent rains. We don’t think of frigid winds, bone-chilling temperatures, and icy seawaters. But that’s where the remains of a fossil rainforest were found—on the continent known for penguins instead of tropical parrots: Antarctica! A new study found tropical fossils, similar to the current flora in New Zealand’s South Island, in Cretaceous layers. Now, this isn’t the first time the remains of seemingly out-of-place organisms have been found on the southernmost continent. But a new study found tropical fossils, similar to the current flora

For a generation of millions (maybe billions) of North American jumping bugs called cicadas—often mislabeled in America as locusts—life changes dramatically after 17 years, yet for others the special timeframe is 13 years.1,2 And for many such periodical cicadas, reports Kirsten Geddes, it’s about that time. Cicadas, those little bugs that make … More… …read more Source: icr.org
Recently, after audio-recording underwater in Greenland’s fjords, two geoscientists published research on vocalizations made by narwhals. The sounds included shrill whistle tones, repetitive clicks, knocking sounds, buzzing noises, and even some tonal pulses inaudible to human ears.1,2 Complicating the situation, narwhals routinely summer near calving icebergs, so their natural surroundings are often noisy.

An amazing abundance of life can be found in the strangest places—such as the backs of turtles. It was previously known that an array of life was present on the backs of loggerhead sea turtles, and new research shows that it’s more abundant and diverse than scientists ever realized.1 An international group of researchers, headed up by Florida State University scientists, discovered more than double the total nu… More… …read more Source: icr.org
European dippers are making the news lately, including science news in Wales.1-3 These riparian habitat birds are indicators4 of freshwater stream quality, as noted below.

Recent research surprises those who study coral reefs, especially those who assume that they grow slowly.1,2 To the surprise of old-earth evolutionists, these findings reveal that reef ages do not conflict with relatively young biblical chronology timeframes.

While searching for a missing plane on the ocean floor, scientists made an interesting geological discovery. On March 8, 2014, Malaysia Airlines flight MH330 disappeared with all 239 people on board somewhere over the southern Indian Ocean. So far, no pieces of the plane have ever been found on the ocean floor. From 2014 to 2016, three vessels collected detailed sonar images over a large piece of the Indian Ocean whi… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Scientists recently discovered evidence that large theropods were possibly guilty of cannibalism.1 The new study, published in PLOS ONE, examined over 2,300 bones from the Mygatt-Moore Quarry in western Colorado.1 It was led by Stephanie Drumheller, from the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and several colleagues. The scientists determined that about … More… …read more Source: icr.org
A new analysis of thousands of deep earthquakes has revealed several large structures at the base of the mantle.1 Known as ultra-low velocity zones, these structures may give us better insight into the origins of hot spots which produced the Hawaiian Islands during the Flood year.

A team of researchers used more than two million images obtained by NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter to construct the first near-global map of rockfalls on the moon.
