#Pigeons detect magnetic fields through their inner ear https://www.bi.mpg.de/news/2025-11-nordmann https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aea6425

"neurobiologists have identified a dedicated pathway for processing magnetic information that originates in the #InnerEar. This supports an inductive mechanism first proposed over 100 years ago, a concept that science forgot... Genetic analysis of inner ear tissue revealed cells with highly sensitive electric sensors, the same ones used by #sharks to detect their prey"

Due to a quirk in their inner ear development, pumpkin toadlets cannot hear their own mating calls.

I will release #innerEar within a year.

(As I began the toot, it was “before the end of the year”, in case you wonder why I am posting this. Funny thing is that I have core functionality working beside editing so it's mostly a desire for polish.)
