Drinking water in plastic bottles contains countless particles too small to see. New research finds that people who drink water from them on a daily basis ingest far more microplastics than those who don’t.

438. Elephant habituation to drones as a behavioural observation tool
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, known as UAVs or drones, are increasingly important as a tool in wildlife research and conservation. However, it is crucial to quantify as well as qualify the response of target species to drones. We measured the reaction of African savannah elephants (Loxodonta africana) to an off-the-shelf quadcopter drone during sequences of repeated trials. In total we conducted 35 trials involving 14 distinct and individually identified elephant groups, exposing them to the drone on up to four separate occasions. Half of trials recorded evidence of disturbed behaviour, but the proportion of disturbed elephants returned to levels comparable to pre-exposure by the end of the exposure period, suggesting some degree of habituation to drones over the course of a single trial. Additionally, repeated trials had significantly fewer instances of disturbed behaviour compared to initial trials, suggesting long-term habituation as well. Nonetheless, some small-scale changes in activity patterns were observed even after repeated trials. Our results suggest that elephants can habituate to drones, especially when they are flown according to guidelines which minimise disturbance. This indicates that drones can be used as a minimally invasive technology to monitor elephant behaviour provided that baseline activity patterns are recorded and quantified prior to drone exposure.

441. When US Cavalry&Germans Fought Together in WWII&Saved 1.2k Horses from Soviets
Operation Cowboy stands as one of only two documented occasions during World War II when U.S. and Wehrmacht forces fought alongside each other against a common enemy. The raid saved more than 1,200 horses, including 375 irreplaceable Lipizzaners whose bloodlines stretched back four centuries through the Habsburg Dynasty. Days later, the Czechs greeted their American liberators with flowers as U.S. armor rolled into Pilsen. But the Yalta Conference had assigned Czechoslovakia to the Soviet sphere of influence.
