Domesticated dogs have been dumbed down over the centuries, losing the higher intelligence of wild dogs who can calculate “cause and effect”
Wolves have been shown in past studies to be better at learning from each other than dogs, and they also observe each other more closely. Now, we can add cause-and-effect skills to the list of areas in which wolves reign superior after a new study that compared the reasoning skills of human-socialized wolves to those […]

Headlines about health studies often leave people confused and frustrated, with a study claiming that a certain food is bad for you often contradicted by one that says the opposite just days or months later.

Our actions can affect the environment in many ways, and some are more obvious than others. Throwing garbage into the ocean, cutting down trees, and pumping toxic chemicals into the air out of factory smokestacks are clearly harmful to our planet, but other actions are destroying the earth much more quietly.
