The remarkable diversity of mammalian carnivores may be built on a surprisingly limited set of dental solutions—teeth that are good at slicing meat cannot also excel at crushing hard foods, and vice versa. According to a new Science study, this inherent tradeoff between cutting and crushing performance has repeatedly steered the evolution of carnassial teeth toward two recurring forms, helping explain how predators evolved to exploit different diets.

The war has taught me a simple truth. Thousands of things that people consider important in their lives are, in fact, of no value whatsoever. And there are literally just a few things worth living and fighting for. The Russians have once again killed families with children who were sleeping in their beds this night. They were killed because we do not have the missiles to protect the skies over Ukrainian cities. Against this backdrop, the fact that in the US the military are rolling out the red carpet for Putin – who has an arrest warrant issued by the Hague and is the world’s biggest child abductor – Or the fact that Poland has decided to scrap Soviet aircraft for scrap metal rather than hand them over to Ukraine for free. Or other news of this sort no longer stirs our emotions. They simply become yet another feature of these despicable times.  The Ukrainian authorities have appealed for missiles to be urgently supplied from the stockpiles of various countries to defend against Russian attacks. Those of us who survived this night in Kyiv, Sumy, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Odesa and Kherson – we are all watching closely to see who will merely pay lip service to our resilience, and who will actually do something.

About a decade ago, a baker in a small mountainous village in southern Austria noticed his cow doing something unusual. When Veronika had an itch, she would grab a stick in her mouth and use it to scratch her body. Over the years, the brown bovid’s technique improved. She could pick up objects as large as a broom or rake and move them around with her prehensile tongue, changing their length and orientation to ensure the best possible scratch. The behavior isn’t just a clever trick: It’s the first documented case of tool use in cattle, scientists report. And, it turns out, one of Veronika’s skills has only been seen in humans and chimpanzees. Learn more: scim.ag/4vPRmq1

The near-ubiquitous use of AI in universities is generating new sources of stress, as students worry over the potential ramifications of both using and not using the technology ow.ly/4reI50ZcFr8

In a cynical attempt to whitewash its unlawful deportation and forcible transfer of Ukrainian children, Russia plans to organise a ‘World Children’s Conference’ from 21 June to 12 July 2026. In full mockery and contempt of international law, Russia’s choice of venue for the event is illegally occupied Crimea.

Instead of trying to detect students using AI for their work, we need to think differently. Here’s where to start: timeshighereducation.com/campus/five-ti…
