Is Prince Harry Abdicating? Not So Fast.

"Call it the Instagram heard round the world: a picture of a smiling Duke and Duchess of Sussex (Prince Harry and Meghan Markle) and a bombshell announcement that they will “step back” from their royal roles. The royal ripples are leading some to draw parallels with another monarchical mess: Edward VIII’s 1936 decision to step back from his role as king of England so he could marry American socialite Wallis Simpson.

But though both situations involve frustrated royals, American divorcees, and public furor, the similarities are not as straightforward as they might seem."

Selfless Parrots Seem Happy to Help Others

"People have long known that African grey parrots are clever. Now, new research shows that they are also selfless, and willing to help a partner get ahead, even if doing so doesn’t help them at all.

It’s not unusual for a person to help someone else out without getting anything in return. That’s something humans do. But this behavior is thought to be rare among animals. Some apes and some dogs do it. So do dolphins, rats, and even vampire bats. But as far as we know, most animals do not.

Up to now, that kind of behavior hadn’t been seen in birds. That’s why scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology created an experiment designed to test whether African grey parrots were willing to help each other out."

A Billion Animals Caught in Australia's Fires; Some May Go Extinct

"The dunnart is not as famous as the koalas or platypuses that draw tourists. The mouse-sized animal though, is arguably the most special mammal on Australia's Kangaroo Island.

Before bush fires struck, the dunnart was already endangered, so rare that even researchers who studied them had never seen one. Now they fear they never will. One-third of the 1,700-square-mile island has burned, including the entire area where these dunnarts are known to live.

"One hundred percent — all of our records since 1990 are within the burned fire scar. The entire range of the species has been burned," said Rosemary Hohnen, an ecologist who spent more than two years surveying the Kangaroo Island dunnart. "They're in true peril, real peril of extinction."

More than 1 billion mammals, birds and reptiles nationwide, some of them found nowhere else on Earth, may have been affected or killed by the fires sweeping across Australia, according to a University of Sydney estimate. The potential toll is far greater when other types of animals are included."
