Other predators, including dingoes and human beings, are thought to have hunted the Tasmanian tiger to extinction. Returning the Tasmanian tiger to life on Earth can seem to be a grace note of justice in a natural world that, on its own, can be "nasty, brutish, and short," as Thomas Hobbes phrased it. "We're increasingly confident that the hurdles ahead are technological, not biological," Professor Archer told The Guardian newspaper, adding that they've already begun work on cloning a Tasmanian tiger, which disappeared in the 1930s. But even a brief existence stirred excitement that this technique could lead to a way of recreating lost species. Professor Mike Archer says his team took tissue from a frog that had been dead and frozen since the 1970s and implanted it successfully in an egg from a closely related frog species. So if you heard a female gastric brooder croak, "Excuse me while I clear my throat," you stood back. It was not so named because it had the temperament of a Russell Crowe character, but because it gave birth through its mouth. The gastric brooder once lived in the rainforests of Queensland, Australia, and was declared extinct in 1983. This week scientists at the University of New South Wales' Lazarus Project announced they have reproduced the genome - that bit of biological material that carries our genetic structure - of a gastric brooding frog. Does that give us a lot to brood about, too? The gastric brooding frog may be coming back. So sit back and enjoy the strange awesomeness below.This week scientists announced they have reproduced the genome of an extinct amphibian, the gastric brooding frog. To showcase some of the most bizarre facts about his body, we have compiled a list of 20 strange facts that are fascinating to wrap your head around. Throughout Batman’s career as a crime fighter, he has sustained injuries and circumstances that altered the way his body functions. In my opinion, Batman is the ultimate hero because he is like you and me but he still manages to take down foes much more powerful than himself. It shows how much of a threat he is to wrongdoers. His greatness lies in his talents and the way he plans and executes his schemes. However, there is one hero out there that is simply awesome without even having any of the cool powers like the rest of them.īatman is one of those characters that is cool beyond words and what makes him such a tough-as-nails hero is that he takes on the bad guys without any superpowers. Superheroes such as Superman, Spider-Man, and Green Lantern were bestowed with their superpowers either naturally or by some accident. I mean, who wouldn't want to shoot lasers through their eyes or would be able to fly. There are a lot of superheroes out there who are granted really awesome superpowers that you and I wish we could have.
