Cat on boat plays with Dolphins
Do you think that the cat and the dolphins are doing more than playing with each other out of curiosity or are they communicating?

Conversations about animal navigation…
At a recent meeting of the Royal Institute of Navigation I met Jon Ward. Jon was brought up in Africa as a boy and spent much time roaming the countryside and going to distant villages out of sight of his home. We talked about Animal navigation and I told him that I thought that as…
Eyes are essential for magnetoreception in a mammal
Here is another interesting paper: Mole-rat lives underground and basically cannot see and is often studied to understand how they navigate. Caspar, K. R., Moldenhauer, K., Moritz, R. E., Němec, P., Malkemper, E. P. & Begall, S. 2020 Eyes are essential for magnetoreception in a mammal. Journal of The Royal Society Interface17, 20200513. doi: doi:10.1098/rsif.2020.0513.

Dolphins and Bats: Superpower
Dolphins and bats don’t have much in common, but they share a superpower: Both hunt their prey by emitting high-pitched sounds and listening for the echoes. Now, a study shows that this ability arose independently in each group of mammals from the same genetic mutations. For more reading follow this link: ow.ly/xkfk30nysHa
Animal Navigation is based on quantum effects
Quantum mechanics proposes that there has been a quantum computer running since the beginning of time that records everything, and also that there is entanglement where things are forever linked however far apart they are This world is so weird and unlikely that it is impossible to understand properly or as Feynman said if you…
Successful acceptance test of the ICARUS qualification model
This site takes you into the world where technology is trying to understand animal migration by using tags and a sophisticated satellite system to follow routes taken by animals. Up until now tags have often been very heavy, or at least too heavy for a lot of tiny birds that make huge migrations such as…
Navigation Networks in the Brain
Professor Kate Jeffery of University College London gave the annual address to the Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN) this year (2014). This article published in RIN’s Navigation News is, for me, a seminal step forward in describing the parameters of animal navigation and building a structure to delve deeper into how navigation might work. Her idea that…
