Explorers once carried these caterpillars aboard ships, stunned to see them thaw and crawl after months encased in ice.

For 13 winters they freeze and feed in brief summers, then finally transform in year fourteen.

Michigan’s Deerlick Creek Beach is one of the best “rock hunting” beaches on Lake Michigan! The beach at this little park is covered in smooth stones and colorful pebbles, where you can “lightning stones”, petoskey stones, polished beach glass and even ancient coral fossils as you stroll the beach here. The creek runs directly into Lake Michigan, making this place even more scenic. The mix of pebbles, fossils, and glass makes every walk feel like a treasure hunt, and the backdrop of Lake Michigan adds to the park’s simple, natural beauty!

"Hello, I’m a possum. Probably, you don't know it, but I’m not here to cause any trouble. Actually, I’m here to help. Every night, I can eat around 2,000 ticks, along with insects that spread disease.

I also keep snake numbers in check, even the venomous ones. My body is tough enough to survive rattlesnake or coral snake bites, and yes, I even eat venomous snakes like they’re just another meal.

What’s more, my blood carries something special. Scientists have used it to develop treatments for snake bites that save lives. Without animals like me, there would be more pests, more snakes, and fewer cures for people.

So if you see me, please don’t hurt me. Let me raise my babies. I’m just out here doing my part to make the world a little safer for everyone."

Scientists discovered telescope fish (Giganturidae) in deep-sea abyssal zones at depths up to 3 kilometers (9842 feet).

These 20-centimeter predators have distinctive protruding tubular eyes that detect faint bioluminescence in total darkness.

Their scaleless, slender bodies feature extendable mouths with sharp teeth for capturing larger prey like lanternfish and bristlemouths.

Despite their small size, they’re efficient solitary hunters that perform nocturnal vertical migrations to feed in shallower waters while avoiding daytime predators.

Little is known about their reproduction, but they’re believed to have pelagic breeding cycles with eggs released directly into water.

The loudest sound in history. On August 27, 1883, the Krakatoa volcano in Indonesia erupted with an unimaginable force. The explosion was so powerful it produced the loudest sound ever recorded, heard over 3,000 miles away. Sailors nearly 40 miles from the blast suffered ruptured eardrums, and barographs worldwide captured the pressure shockwaves as they circled the globe multiple times.

The eruption annihilated most of the island, triggering tsunamis over 100 feet high that swept away coastal towns and villages. Roughly 36,000 people lost their lives, the majority to the devastating waves that reached as far as South Africa. Ash clouds darkened skies worldwide, altering weather patterns and causing global temperatures to drop. For years, sunsets glowed in surreal shades of red, while some observers reported the moon appearing blue or green.

Though Krakatoa itself was obliterated, the Earth would not remain quiet. In 1927, a new island began to emerge from the sea—Anak Krakatau, the “Child of Krakatoa.” Still active today, it serves as a living reminder of nature’s fury. The 1883 eruption remains one of history’s deadliest and most extraordinary natural events, reshaping global climate and human memory alike.
