Scientists have started to study how dogs take emotional cues from human voices. According to the head researcher: "We’d put an experienced dog up in the scanner, and he’d be up there sitting still. Then we’d bring into the room a less experienced dog. And he’d get so jealous! He just wanted to be on the scanner bed like the other dog. It became the place of happiness."

Reptiles and things...this is the Titanoboa! They are calling this one of the greatest discoveries since the T-Rex! Discovered in a Colombian coal mine, its believed to have lived 59 million years ago, was 49 feet long, two feet wide, and weighed 2,500 lbs! Check out this awesome site from the Smithsonian Channel and learn more about the Titanoboa (there's even a cool Monster Snake Game there too!) Have FUN!: http://bit.ly/19sXMjB (p.s. I had my feet up while I was typing that...does anyone else get the HEEBIE-JEEBIES when it comes to snakes?)
