🐜🌊 Researchers at #GeorgiaTech have looked into how fire #ants interlock their legs and jaws to form buoyant, waterproof rafts that can float for weeks. These "living arks" use tiny air bubbles trapped against their bodies to stay 75% less dense than water.

It floats, it's larger than a dinner plate and it's made up of more than 100,000 individuals | Discover Wildlife

If you saw this circular raft floating down a river you’d be forgiven for thinking it was a discarded deep-dish pizza…

🐙🧪 Taking a cue from the master of disguise – the #octopus – researchers have created a 4D-printed synthetic skin that can morph its texture and reveal hidden information.

By encoding #data into a single layer of hydrogel, the material can shift from a flat sheet to a #3D shape or reveal a hidden image when the temperature changes.

🐹🚀 When #hamsters hibernate, their muscle cells don't just endure the cold – they go on "pause."

Researchers are studying this active suppression of muscle repair to find ways to protect #astronauts from muscle loss during long-term #space flight and help people on #Earth facing prolonged bed rest.

🐘🍕 Scientists have discovered the secret to an elephant's gentle touch: their whiskers are built with a "stiffness gradient."

While most #mammals move their whiskers to feel around, #elephants have "baked-in" #intelligence in the hairs themselves.
