Ancient 19-meter octopuses crushed bones in Cretaceous seas, study finds

Fossil beak analysis reveals giant Cretaceous octopuses up to about 19 m long that crushed bones and shells with powerful jaws, possibly rivaling mosasaurs in the oceans. Nanaimoteuthis haggarti may be the largest known invertebrate, with wear patterns and lateralization indicating sophisticated predation. Researchers reclassified several beaks and uncovered additional specimens (12 more beaks from 72–100 million-year-old rocks) using digital imaging, reshaping views of the Cretaceous marine ecosystem. Findings published in Science.

Johansen retires after 13-season NHL career, highlighted by 2017 Predators run

Ryan Johansen announced his retirement after a 13-season NHL career highlighted by an All-Star year with Columbus and a central role in Nashville’s 2017 run to the Cup Final. Drafted fourth overall in 2010, he peaked with 71 points in Columbus before a trade to Nashville in 2016 and a lengthy eight-year contract that later declined in production amid injuries, including a hip issue that helped end his career. He also had stints with Colorado and Philadelphia, and finished with just over 900 games and 578 points, with 362 points for Nashville ranking sixth in franchise history.

Nashville star Steven Stamkos publicly shot down trade chatter, saying he won’t waive his no-movement clause, even as reports suggested a short list of acceptable destinations (Tampa Bay, Minnesota, Dallas). The camp remains open to a summer move rather than the deadline, with cap space and asset compensation likely shaping any deal as Nashville contends with rebuilding and a changing front office.

Coyote Behavior and Its Impact on Moose and Beavers

The article explores whether coyotes can replace wolves in eastern North America, concluding that while coyotes share some ecological roles with wolves, they cannot fully substitute for them, especially in controlling large herbivores like moose and beavers. Human activity has led to wolf decline, and coyotes have expanded into their range, but differences in diet and predation mean they perform different ecological functions. Complete ecosystem restoration to pre-human conditions is unlikely, but understanding these dynamics helps manage wildlife populations.
