Clovis Diet: Mammoth-centric Evidence Challenges Previous Theories
A study using stable isotope analysis of a 13,000-year-old child's remains reveals that Clovis people in southwest Montana primarily ate mammoths (35%), elk, bison, and camel, providing direct evidence refuting previous dietary hypotheses and shedding light on their role in mammoth extinction.

1.2 Million-Year-Old Antarctic Ice Core Retrieved
After a decade of drilling in Antarctica, scientists retrieved a nearly 3-kilometer-long ice core containing ice at least 1.2 million years old, which will be analyzed to understand past atmospheric and climate changes and the evolution of life in extreme environments.
