356-Million-Year-Old Footprints Rewrite Reptile Evolutionary History
Recently discovered 356-million-year-old clawed footprints in Victoria, Australia, suggest that reptile relatives appeared 35-40 million years earlier than previously believed, pushing back the origin of amniotes and providing new evidence about how animals transitioned from sea to land.

Misinterpretations of Darwin's Evolutionary Theory and its Societal Impact
Misinterpretations of Darwin's theory of evolution led to social Darwinism and eugenics, while recent discoveries in symbiosis reveal a more cooperative aspect of evolution, challenging traditional interpretations.

New Research Suggests Megalodon Was 80 Feet Long and Sleek
A new study suggests the extinct megalodon shark, previously thought to be up to 50 feet long, could have reached 80 feet (24 meters), with a sleeker body shape resembling a lemon shark rather than a great white, according to a study published Sunday in the journal Palaeontologia Electronica.
