Editor’s remark
Here is an interesting paper suggesting that animals can detect the magnetic field and use it. I am still very sceptical and think that these ideas are Classic Age of Enlightenment attempts to find quantifiable truth where in fact there may be none. Have a read and let me know your thoughts…
A little navigational help from animals. Tristam Gooley, who is one of our heroes, and a brilliant natural navigator have posted this fascinating link to his web site. You should follow this and delve into his other insights too as surely animals use many of the same clues as the ones that Tristan points out:…
Migratory birds navigate with the help of the Earth’s magnetic field, but how do their compasses work? Peter Hore of Oxford University discusses whether quantum coherence and entanglement could be the answer. Click here for the full article: The Quantum Robin
The Royal Institute of Navigation Conference RIN 13 – Bionav – is the world’s leading Animal Navigation conference took place at the Royal Holloway College, University of London, Egham, Surrey, on 11-13 April 2013. Leading scientists from all over the world participated and presented their work. All areas of animal navigation techniques were covered, including, in some…
We believe that animal navigation is based on Quantum effects which are inimical to a classic Newtonian science based approach. This world is so weird and unlikely that it is impossible to understand properly or as Feynman said if you think you understand it you must have misunderstood. Dowsers know that you can access this…
In this paper you find a rather fascinating overview of the migration of Birds. Malik, Y. S., Arun Prince Milton, A., Ghatak, S. & Ghosh, S. 2021 Adaptation and Evolution of Bird Migration. In Role of Birds in Transmitting Zoonotic Pathogens, pp. 3-14. Singapore Springer Singapore. Malik 2021
One of our board members, Antonio Nafarrate, has brought this intriguing piece of news to our attention – snakes in the Everglades can find their way home. As we have always said, there is something going on with animals who find their way home and this is another example. I have a friend, Jill Moss who…
