Dinosaurs didn’t roar like in ‘Jurassic World’: Some could sing like birds

The mystery of the sounds made by colossal extinct reptiles takes a new turn following the discovery of a fossilized larynx similar to the vocal organs of avian species.

Earth's earliest life forms developed ways to survive the harmful effects of arsenic to cope with dramatic changes in their environment, a new study suggests. The researchers found the complex life forms, called eukaryotes, stored arsenic inside special compartments within their cells, a strategy that helped neutralize the toxic poison. Using advanced X-ray technology, the international team was able to detect and map arsenic within 2.1-billion-year-old fossils from the Francevillian Basin in Gabon.

It’s time for Trilobite Tuesday! Surrounded by the surging waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, few fossil-bearing locations in North America are more isolated than Anticosti Island in Quebec, Canada.This densely-forested island yields some of the continent’s richest Silurian trilobites. More than 52 trilobite species have been recognized from Anticosti’s sedimentary layers. These include beautifully preserved specimens of the mid-sized 2.1 in (5.3 cm) phacopid Acernaspis orestes, pictured here alongside a brachiopod shell.
