    As a scientist who's work depends on -80s...fantastic work by the lab staff under horrific conditions to save all the samples. That's absolutely amazing.

    Interesting. Maybe we can learn from these animals, that apparently share 90% of our DNA, and solve the mystery as to why they don’t have emotional support animals or any kind of self diagnosed anxiety.

    Sick people experiment with these beautiful animals

    Somehow it just seems there are more important things to be airing right now.
  • God loves you and takes care of you so that this message reaches you. God is the one who created this great universe and has complete control over it. And the greatest loss that a person loses in this life is that he lives while he does not know God who created him, knowing the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the messengers, and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions.  The great intelligence, before you believe in something or not, is to read it, study it, and understand it well, and then you have the choice to believe in it or not. I advise you on this now before you do not have time to do that.
