More things than you would think fall out of the sky at seemingly random intervals. Pieces of meteorite in Germany and frozen igunanas have all hit the deck in the not-too-distant past. Now‚ however‚ 200 parrots have dropped from the skies‚ and scientists aren’t quite sure why.In northern New South Wales‚ Australia‚ around 200 rainbow lorikeets (Trichoglossus moluccanus) dropped from the skies near Grafton. The birds were swiftly rescued and taken to wildlife centers to be cared for; however it is thought that 40 percent of the birds won’t survive their illness. It seems the parrots were suffering from an illness known as Lorikeet Paralysis Syndrome (LPS)‚ causing varying degrees of paralysis in their legs and wings. What is baffling to scientists is that the disease has no known trigger‚ so it is difficult to work out why these birds were suddenly affected and in such high numbers. "It's a significant animal welfare issue and crisis. These animals suffer terribly before they die or get killed by a cat or a possum finds them‚" David Phalen‚ a professor of wildlife health and conservation at the University of Sydney‚ who works on the Lorikeet Paralysis Syndrome Project‚ told ABC.This is not the first time such a incident has happened‚ with birds regularly having to be cared for and nursed back to health in wildlife centers‚ especially in the months of December‚ January‚ and February — the Australian summer.           IFLScience is not responsible for content shared from external sites."A lot of them don't make it because when they come in‚ they are underweight and malnourished and very sick birds‚" said Robyn Gray‚ the Clarence Valley avian coordinator for the Wildlife Information‚ Rescue and Education Service (WIRES). While researchers and scientists have been looking into the disease since it was first identified in 2010‚ as yet no environmental element or pathogen has been identified as the cause. "We've got professors in Sydney‚ Currumbin and Australia Zoo‚ Sydney Uni‚ all testing them and no one can really give a definitive answer‚” continued Gray. According to Animalia‚ rainbow lorikeets mainly eat nectar from flowers‚ but will also consume berries and fruits as well as visiting garden feeders. One theory suggested that the birds were getting drunk on fermented fruit such as mangoes‚ which was causing them to fall from the sky‚ but this has been debunked. However‚ the possibility that a toxin in pesticides could be causing the LPS is still being considered. "We have tested for alcohol‚ and we have not found any alcohol in their system‚ and the signs we are seeing are not consistent with alcohol poisoning‚" said Phalen.Further testing on pesticides and toxins on the fruit has yet to reveal any conclusive cause. Since the paralysis typically occurs during set months‚ others believe it could be something within the fruit that causes this disease‚ creating a pathogen or substance toxic to the parrots as it ripens."Not all fruits they're eating are necessarily toxic‚ so it could be a toxin forming inside them‚ possibly because the [fruit is] going off‚" Phalen said. "We still think there might be some toxins out there that we haven't tested for and that will be the focus of our investigation this year."According to the Queensland Government‚ the lorikeets might not be the only animals affected by this problem. A species of bat known as the flying fox (genus: Pteropus) are also being found on the ground‚ presenting wildlife veterinarians with similar symptoms. "Basically‚ bats are the lorikeets of the night‚" Jane Hall‚ wildlife health project officer at Taronga Conservation Society Australian told Scientific American. “Whatever the lorikeets are feeding on in the daytime‚ the bats are feeding on in the nighttime. So it’s really interesting that the bats are presenting with similar clinical signs.”Whatever the cause of this horrible and mysterious illness‚ we hope the researchers are able to find it soon. 

The waters of the St. Lawrence River are flowing with antidepressants‚ simulants‚ painkillers‚ and many other kinds of drugs‚ according to a new study. Scientists have recently studied the pharmaceutical pollution of the river and concluded that some of the compounds could pose a threat to the aquatic organisms living in the environment. The entire St. Lawrence River system is 3‚058 kilometers (1‚900 miles) long‚ starting in Canada’s Lake Ontario and traversing through Ontario‚ Quebec‚ and the US state of New York. In this new study‚ researchers at Université de Montréal collected over 400 water samples along a 700-kilometer (434-mile) stretch of the river between 2017 and 2021.The most recurrent substances were caffeine‚ diclofenac (an anti-inflammatory painkiller)‚ and venlafaxine (an antidepressant). Carbamazepine (an epilepsy treatment) and acebutolol (a beta blocker to treat hypertension and arrhythmia) were widely detected in the water samples. They also found lower levels of chemotherapy drugs and antibiotics. The team was particularly worried about the concentrations of four compounds — caffeine‚ carbamazepine‚ diclofenac‚ and ibuprofen — which they believe are high enough to impact the growth and reproduction of animals living in the river system.“Some concentrations exceeded toxicity thresholds for long-term exposure in aquatic life‚ but for most pharmaceutical compounds‚ there are currently no Canadian environmental standards‚” Marc-Antoine Vaudreuil‚ lead study author and doctoral student at Université de Montréal‚ said in a statement. “With the exception of carbamazepine‚ most of the compounds do not cause immediate harm‚ because they degrade fairly rapidly. However‚ it appears that chronic exposure can be very toxic‚ especially to organisms in the early stages of growth‚ such as newly hatched fish‚” added Vaudreuil.Map of North America showing the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River.Image credit: Pinpin/Wikimedia Commons (CC BY-SA 4.0 DEED)Many of the drugs entered the river via wastewater after being secreted in people's pee. Researchers have previously shown how rivers near outdoor music festivals are loaded with substances like MDMA and cocaine due to drug use and public urination. Alternatively‚ some of the compounds in the St. Lawrence likely entered the water system due to improper disposal.In this latest study‚ the most startling concentrations of drugs were identified downstream of Montreal‚ the largest city in Canada's Québec province with a sizeable population. The contamination from the city extended all the way to Lac Saint-Pierre‚ some 70 kilometers (43 miles) downstream.“It’s amazing that there are still traces so far from Montreal‚” said Sauvé. “We would expect more contamination in the immediate vicinity of the island given that the city has a population of two million and only one wastewater treatment plant to treat 900 billion liters of water per year.”The good news is that Montreal is planning to add ozonation technology to its wastewater treatment facilities‚ which will remove up to 80 percent of pharmaceuticals.However‚ this problem isn't isolated to this single North American river. Other studies have identified similar issues in Europe and Australia. In the rivers of Suffolk in eastern England‚ scientists found notable levels of cocaine‚ ketamine‚ Valium‚ Xanax‚ and tramadol in the bodies of freshwater shrimp that inhabit the ecosystem. Once again‚ drug-laced pee was a prime suspect. The new study is published in the journal Science of The Total Environment.

European hedgehogs might be a popular garden visitor‚ but having to share space with humans can sometimes put them at risk‚ including from the smart tech that keeps our lawns looking tidy. New research has highlighted how some robotic lawnmowers could cause harm to hedgehogs‚ but thankfully‚ it’s also come up with a creative safety test solution.That solution came in the form of a hedgehog “crash test dummy”. Developed by a team led by Dr Sophie Lund Rasmussen from the University of Oxford‚ the dummy is made from a soft rubbery plastic that’s designed to mimic the squishy body of a real hedgehog – and of course‚ its iconic spines.To create a safety test using this dummy‚ it was first important to determine how hedgehogs reacted when faced with a robotic lawnmower. Working in an enclosed environment with rescued hedgehogs that were now ready for release‚ the research team tested the responses of hedgehogs to a bladeless robotic lawnmower that was stopped 50 centimeters (20 inches) away.The test setup for the encounter tests between live hedgehogs and a disarmed robotic lawnmower‚ which was stopped before reaching the hedgehogs.Image credit: Sophie Lund RasmussenThey found that the creatures either ran away‚ stood in front of the lawnmower slightly curled up‚ or started sniffing it. From this‚ the researchers could identify the best positions to put the hedgehog crash test dummy in to safety test a robotic mower‚ with the test itself then revealing if the device could avoid a hedgehog and if not‚ the level of damage it would cause to the animal. "Cut injuries from robotic lawnmowers are placing an enormous burden on many hedgehog care centres and using up important resources‚ as these injuries often require above-average care and treatment‚” said study co-author Dr Anne Berger in a statement. “Moreover‚ the majority of hedgehogs with cut injuries are found days or weeks after the accident happened and therefore have to endure considerable suffering‚ pain and harm until they are found.” It’s hoped that the new safety test will lead to the development of more hedgehog-friendly robotic lawnmowers‚ something that Dr Rasmussen told IFLScience is already in the works.”Our research has identified a potential threat to the hedgehogs‚ as some models of robotic lawn mowers – but not all – can be harmful to hedgehogs. Therefore‚ we have formed collaborations with industry partners to find solutions to this challenge by designing hedgehog-friendly robotic lawn mowers based on the knowledge gained through the research‚” the researcher explained.With hedgehog numbers having been in decline for a while‚ this research hopefully comes as the start of some good news for these firm favorites of the European garden. The two studies describing the findings are published in the journal Animals‚ here and here.

Archaeologists have discovered a complete mosaic Maya jade mask bearing an uncanny resemblance to the one Jim Carrey sported in the 1994 film‚ The Mask. This ancient version‚ however‚ was found in the tomb of a Maya king who once ruled from Chochkitam‚ a lesser-known Maya polity in Guatemala near the borders of modern Mexico and Belize.The king’s tomb‚ which dates back 1‚700 years‚ contained an extraordinary array of offerings‚ including rare shells‚ human femur bones with words carved into them‚ and the impressive mosaic jade mask.Among the hieroglyphs carved into the bones is the name “Itzam Kokaj Bahlam”‚ which could be the name of the unknown king who is thought to have ruled Chochkitam around 350 CE. Interestingly‚ one of the bones also includes a depiction of a figure‚ potentially the ruler‚ holding the head of a Maya deity‚ which just happens to look like the assembled mosaic jade mask.Other hieroglyphs on the artefacts are thought to identify the king’s father and grandfather‚ which links the individual to other Maya states‚ such as Tikal and Teotihuacan.“A discovery like this is a bit like winning the lottery in terms of information‚” Francisco Estrada-Belli‚ the lead archaeologist who discovered the tomb in 2022‚ said in a statement. Since its discovery‚ Estrada-Belli and colleagues have been working to preserve‚ scan‚ photograph‚ and interpret the finds. “It opens a window into an obscure time we have very little texts about.”Incised femur bone beside drawing by Alexandre Tokovinine with the Tulane University Holmul Archaeological Project.Image courtesy of Tulane UniversityThe fact that Estrada-Belli and his team were able to find these amazing artifacts is quite a stroke of luck‚ as the tomb appeared to have been looted at some point in the past. But it seems the grave robbers either did a poor job or were unable to finish‚ as the tomb itself was only about 2 meters (6.5 feet) from where they had stopped digging.Looting has been a big issue for researchers investigating Maya culture. Detailed information about the height of the Maya classic period – between 250-900 CE – remains obscured because so much archaeological content has been looted over the centuries. This makes the Chochkitam site particularly special.Despite its close run-in with looters‚ the tomb itself has survived with little damage (save for a collapsed stone ceiling).“That was the first amazing thing about it‚” Estrada-Belli added. “[I]t was very lucky.”But then again‚ perhaps it if was not for the looters‚ the site may have remained hidden. Its location was only discovered because the team came across the looter’s tunnels‚ which they identified using lidar technology‚ which maps out hard-to-find features on the ground by shooting laser beams from an airplane through the dense jungle canopy.“It’s like taking x-rays of the jungle floor‚” Estrada-Belli explained. “It revolutionizes our field. Only now can we see where we’re going instead of just bushwhacking through the jungle hoping to find something.”The tomb also contained over 16 spondylus shells‚ a rare genus of spiny oysters that were used as jewelry and currency by the ancient elite or in religious ceremonies. These objects‚ together with the information carved in the human bones‚ strengthen the assumed connection between Chochkitam‚ contemporary Tikal‚ and the central Mexican site of Teotihuacan.The discovery comes 100 years after the Chochkitam site was first explored by Fran Blom‚ an early director of Tulane University."All of Indigenous America has a deep and complex history‚" said Marcello A. Canuto‚ the director of Tulane’s Middle American Research Institute (MARI). "For this reason‚ Tulane recognized early on that it was important and worthy of serious and focused academic interest. Discoveries like this one and others‚ including those made by other Tulane faculty and students also conducting fieldwork‚ represent Tulane's commitment to the study of ancient indigenous American peoples and their accomplishments."According to Estrada-Belli‚ the next step will be to conduct DNA analysis on the bones recovered from the site and to perhaps find more contents hidden in the abandoned pyramid where the tomb lay.

A recent poll showed President Joe Biden leading former President Donald Trump 50-44 and CBS’s Stephen Colbert could hardly contain his excitement. On Thursday’s The Late Show‚ Colbert claimed the reason for the numbers was because women know that Biden is the only thing preventing the Supreme Court from “putting a go-pro in their uterus.” Colbert would also later claim the country was and is a racist one and anyone who thinks otherwise has less than a whole brain. Colbert began the show by noticing how similar 2024 is to 2020. First the Kansas City Chiefs are playing the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl and “Unless something crazy happens‚ it’s Trump v. Biden and Trump's been leading in a lot of polls‚ but today in a new Quinnipiac poll‚ Biden has leapt out to lead Trump 50-44. Thank God. Thank God. Thank God‚ some good news in an otherwise depressing reality!”     Colbert theorized that “This is like finding some punch in a turd bowl! I don't know. I don't know just how Joe did it‚ but political analysts think it may be his strategy of standing still while his opponent repeatedly quotes Hitler.” Another theory was that “Biden leads among women by a margin of 58 to 36 percent” which led Colbert to don a pair of aviators and do the world’s worst Biden impression‚ “That's right. Hey‚ ladies. Hello‚ ladies. That's right‚ the ladies love cool Joe. They love my store-bought smile. They love the shades. They love that thing where I'm the last one standing between them and the Supreme Court putting a go-pro in their uterus. They love it. Watch those babies spelunk out of there. I'm serious‚ folks!"  Just your typical two self-professed devout Catholics promoting abortion and fearmongering about pro-lifers. Later in his monologue‚ Colbert switched his ire to the other GOP presidential candidate: Nikki Haley. In a recent interview with The Breakfast Club and Charlamagne Tha God‚ Haley repeated her belief that‚ while racism exists in America‚ America is not a racist country and was not founded as such. This greatly confused Colbert‚ “Okay‚ so the argument is that there is racism‚ but it's not a racist country? That's interesting. You know‚ if you make a lemon chiffon cake that has even a little bit of poop in it‚ I got some bad news for you. That's a poop cake. Gotta label it. Gotta label it right there at the deli. It's gotta say ‘poop cake‚ must go.’” It's more like some comedians use their shows to spread left-wing politics‚ but saying that comedy as a whole is about left-wing politics is wrong. Nevertheless‚ Colbert then played a clip of Haley and Charlamagne: CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD: You can't say America's never been a racist country‚ but then talk about the racism you've experienced.  NIKKI HALEY: There is racism in our country. I don't think that our country was founded to be racist. I don't. I think that it was meant to be this amazing experiment to see if we could have freedom and democracy in a way that all men are created equal. Colbert responded by attacking Haley’s intelligence‚ “If you think America was not founded as a racist country‚ I'd say you have three-fifths of a brain.” Of course‚ the Three-Fifths Compromise limited the power of slave states and stopped the creation of independent slave nations‚ which Colbert would know if he read the history he accuses other people of not reading.  Here is a transcript for the February 1 show: CBS The Late Show with Stephen Colbert 2/1/2024 11:37 PM ET STEPHEN COLBERT: Unless something crazy happens‚ it’s Trump v. Biden and Trump's been leading in a lot of polls‚ but today in a new Quinnipiac poll‚ Biden has leapt out to lead Trump 50-44. Thank God. Thank God. Thank God‚ some good news in an otherwise depressing reality!  This is like finding some punch in a turd bowl! I don't know. I don't know just how Joe did it‚ but political analysts think it may be his strategy of standing still while his opponent repeatedly quotes Hitler. Okay. Now‚ no surprise‚ the credit really goes to women voters. Biden leads among women by a margin of 58 to 36 percent. "That's right. Hey‚ ladies. Hello‚ ladies. That's right‚ the ladies love cool Joe. They love my store-bought smile. They love the shades. They love that thing where I'm the last one standing between them and the Supreme Court putting a go-pro in their uterus. They love it. Watch those babies spelunk out of there. I'm serious‚ folks!"  … COLBERT: Okay‚ so‚ the argument is that there is racism‚ but it's not a racist country? That's interesting. You know‚ if you make a lemon chiffon cake that has even a little bit of poop in it‚ I got some bad news for you. That's a poop cake. Gotta label it. Gotta label it right there at the deli. It's gotta say "poop cake‚ must go."

In 2019‚ a strange woman named E. Jean Carroll accused Donald Trump of raping her in a changing room of the Bergdorf Goodman department store in Midtown Manhattan. Trump called her crazy‚ and a jury found him liable for both sexually abusing her and defaming her with the “crazy” talk. Last week‚ a New York jury decided Carroll deserves $83 million for defamation. Here are 25 reasons why that’s nuts. 1) Carroll has said rape is “sexy” She backs up this insane statement with‚ “Think of the fantasies” (which my wife and I can’t stop saying to each other). For the record‚ having someone forcibly violate you against your will is the exact opposite of “sexy.” 2) She’s already bragging about shopping sprees Remember in “Goodfellas” when that idiot shows up at the party with his wife wearing a $20‚000 fur coat and De Niro tells him to “bring it back”? When you run a scam‚ you need to lay low for a while. Carroll‚ conversely‚ is making appearances on national television telling Rachel Maddow she’s going to buy her a “penthouse in Paris” as well as fishing gear and a motorcycle for her counsel (could she pick weirder presents?). Her lawyer awkwardly murmured‚ “Uh‚ that’s a joke.” Yeah‚ this whole thing is a joke. 3) The scenario she described came from her favorite TV show She is a self-described “Law &; Order” fan‚ and there is an episode wherein a man muscles his way into a changing room at Bergdorf Goodman and sexually molests a woman. This is likely where she got the idea. She’s also a big fan of “The Apprentice.” Would you like to watch your rapist on TV? 4) She didn’t want to press criminal charges Being on the cover of New York magazine is one thing‚ but taking your BS story into an actual courtroom is a whole other level of fraud. When Bill de Blasio said he would change the law to make the case admissible‚ Carroll kept awkwardly repeating‚ “The experts told me … the time has passed.” 5) They changed the law The case had no merit because the statute of limitations on civil action had passed. So what happened? The New York State Legislature changed the law. Is there anything that screams “witch hunt” more than that? What are we‚ Zimbabwe? 6) The man who backed the lawsuit is a major DNC donor Leftist activist billionaire Reid Hoffman is the money behind this operation. His motive is obviously to bankrupt Trump so he can’t run again. Carroll denied this at first because she’s a liar‚ but her lawyer was forced to come clean. 7) The whole thing was George Conway’s idea‚ apparently Though she denies it‚ it’s clear this entire plan was concocted by “conservative lawyer” Conway at a radical leftist cocktail party in Manhattan. 8) Carroll’s lawyer is desperate to fix her reputation as a rape-enabler Roberta Kaplan was supposed to champion victims of sexual assault with her #TimesUp movement‚ but she used it instead to run cover for perverts such as Andrew Cuomo. She got caught and she got fired. Her comeback included representing Ashley Biden (A Biden lawyer going after Trump? Is anyone surprised?)‚ but this case could permanently rescue her Google results. 9) Carroll’s dress didn’t exist back then Carroll said the rape happened in the early 1990s. We just learned the particular dress she said she was allegedly wearing did not exist at the time. 10) She cannot remember when the rape happened We’re not talking about the exact date. She can’t tell us if it was 1993 or 1995. 11) She won’t let anyone test her coat for DNA Carroll calls the dress her “bad luck dress” and told CNN she will never make a talisman out of it — as though the idea had occurred to anyone. Why did she keep it around? This could be the left’s Monica Lewinsky dress‚ but she refuses to let anyone analyze it. 12) She doesn’t know if Trump ejaculated I don’t know if anyone reading this has engaged in sexual intercourse‚ but evidence of the male orgasm is almost impossible to hide. 13) She is a serial accuser Despite being a 3.5‚ she has claimed men have sexually assaulted her at least a half-dozen times. This isn’t proof of Trump’s innocence in and of itself‚ but it becomes relevant when surrounded by 24 other points. 14) She said it wasn’t sexual Carroll has said pretty much everything that you could say about this encounter‚ from “it was not sexual” to “it was the definition of rape.” She said she would not press charges‚ however‚ because it would trivialize the experience of illegal aliens who are being “raped around the clock.” 15) She’s not his type Trump is into elegant Slavs. This woman is like that hysterical chicken lady from “The Kids in the Hall.” 16) The judge and Carroll’s lawyer are pals We’re told Judge Lewis Kaplan was Roberta Kaplan’s (no relation) mentor back when they both worked at Paul‚ Weiss‚ Rifkind‚ Wharton &; Garrison. Kaplan denies this‚ but it can’t be denied they worked at the same firm at the same time. That alone is a conflict of interest. 17) Carroll didn’t talk to anyone about the alleged assault‚ until she did If a woman is sexually assaulted‚ she is morally obligated to report it immediately‚ so the rapist doesn’t do it again. Carroll did not do this. What’s more‚ she didn’t talk to any of her friends about it. At least not at first. This is peculiar behavior for a blabbermouth. 18) Even if it’s all true‚ the settlement would be tiny Carroll alleged that Trump cost her a columnist job at Elle‚ but the magazine made it clear it ended her contract as an advice columnist based on nothing more than lack of interest. But let’s assume Elle fired her because Trump wrote a mean tweet. A good price for an advice column would be a couple of hundred bucks per piece. That’s $2‚000 a year for Elle. Assuming Carroll lives as long as “Dear Abby” columnist Pauline Esther Friedman‚ who died at 94‚ that would be a whopping total of $28‚000 (Carroll is 80). So‚ we’re off by about $82‚972‚000. 19) She said women “love” being abducted She told Charlie Rose (remember him?) in 1995 that women love the idea of a caveman knocking them unconscious with a club and then dragging them — by their hair — back to the cave. I’m no feminist‚ but I’m pretty sure the cerebral contusions from this kind of violence are not a turn-on. 20) She said it wasn’t a big deal “I’m a mature woman‚” she said. “I can handle it.” OK‚ then why does she need $83 million to recover? That’s four times the amount of money you get when your kid is decapitated. 21) She lives in a Mouse House Anyone who doubts this lady’s mental state needs to check out her house. She calls it “The Mouse House” because it’s infested with rodents (to whom she has given individual names‚ such as “Terbrusky”). She has painted the trees blue. She has printed out 27 years of advice column questions and stacked them all over the place. Yes‚ writers can be weird. But it is impossible to look at her place and not think‚ “This is nuts.” 22) She is a hoarder Hoarding is a mental disorder. You can’t sue someone for calling you “crazy” if you have a mental disorder. 23) Her cat is called “Vagina” — seriously E. Jean Carroll is obsessed with sex and her vagina. She said she lives in the woods because if she lived in the city‚ she’d have 16 boyfriends. She’s 80‚ remember? Her dog “Tits” has blue hair‚ and her cat is named “Vagina.” The left-wing media thinks this is irrelevant. “Among the stranger complaints made by the former president … was that the jury wasn’t informed about the name of his accuser’s cat: Vagina T. Fireball.” Uh‚ when the charge is “calling a sane woman crazy‚” Vagina T. Fireball matters. 24) She writes notes to herself Wait‚ doesn’t everyone do that? Not like this. “The Mouse House” is festooned with bizarre messages. Her microwave says‚ “Burn Baby Burn.” Her bookshelf says‚ “Always amused never angry.” And‚ in a moment of deranged honesty‚ she taped a note to a lamp that says‚ “Hold your nerve. Pursue your radical options to the bitter END!” 25) Carroll said she wanted to “rape” Trump Apparently‚ she thought having rough sex with him in the changing room would make for a “funny story.” (Wait‚ I thought she didn’t tell anyone about what happened to her out of fear.) She also suggested she’d do it for $17‚000 if he was unable to speak. Sounds awfully rapey‚ doesn’t it? Anyone who takes this case seriously and doesn’t see E. Jean Carroll as a complete basket case is a complete basket case.
