Can Dogs See Through a Person’s Kindness? A Surprising Study Says No
Despite our strong belief in dogs’ ability to sense good from bad in people, new research shows they may not actually judge human character, at least not in the way we think. When dogs watched how humans treated other dogs, they didn’t favor the kinder person later. Even direct interactions didn’t sway their behavior. The study suggests dogs’ reputational judgments might be more nuanced—or harder to study—than we realized.

Florida Cat’s Latest Catch: New Virus Discovered in Shrew
A cat named Pepper has once again helped scientists discover a new virus—this time a mysterious orthoreovirus found in a shrew. Researchers from the University of Florida, including virologist John Lednicky, identified this strain during unrelated testing and published its genome. Although once thought to be harmless, these viruses are increasingly linked to serious diseases in humans and animals. With previous discoveries also pointing to a pattern of viral emergence in wildlife, scientists stress the need for more surveillance—and Pepper remains an unlikely but reliable viral scout.

The Nano-Colors of Blue Sharks: Unveiling the Secrets of their Iconic Blue Pigmentation
Blue sharks possess a secret hidden in their skin: a sophisticated arrangement of microscopic crystals and pigments that create their brilliant blue appearance — and may allow them to change color. Scientists have discovered that these nanostructures, found inside tooth-like skin scales, act like nature’s version of layered mirrors and light filters. What’s more, changes in the spacing of these layers — possibly triggered by environmental factors like water pressure — could enable the sharks to shift their color from blue to green or gold. The discovery not only unravels a biological mystery but hints at a new frontier in bio-inspired materials with applications in sustainable design and camouflage technology.
