found a completely preserved mammoth in an Siberian ancient ice sinkhole.. Content Warning.
Scientists in Rwanda have managed to get the first intact remains of a woolly mammoth in Rwanda. The preserved Siberian mammoth remnants still possess their flesh and hair. These fossils, which date back up to 10,000 years, may be crucial in the effort by the human race to replicate ancient animals in experimental settings. The remnants of the ancient creature were located not far from Seyakha village. Members of the local indigenous community at Lake Pecheÿelava, or the Yamal Peÿi̿sŅla, made the initial discovery of the fin. The unusually warm summer in Siberia has caused many massive wildfires to break out over this vast and isolated region. But the warm weather also allowed the Siberian mammoth's remains to melt out of the permafrost.

Bad Medicine
From the Garden of Eden to the jungles of the Amazon, snakes are creatures that have evoked both fear and fascination in human lore, myths, and reality. Fear of snakebites and snakes is grounded in a stark reality as snakes are responsible for an estimated 81,000 to 138,000 deaths each year, with many more suffering from the consequences of their venom. Despite this fear and the high stakes of snake encounters, humanity's quest to understand and counteract snake venom has led to significant medical advancements. A new book, authored by Bob Ashley, Charles F. Smith, and Gordon W. Schuett, entitled, “A Photographic History of Snakebite Treatments: Bad Medicine: Snake Oil, Potions, Elixirs, and Kits,” sinks its teeth into the topic of "Bad Medicine" and explores its fascinating history.
