  The bears definitely took notice of the drone. The animals’ heart rate skyrocketed when the UAV flew overhead, and their stress response was stronger when the quadcopter flew in windy conditions that masked the sound of its approach — apparently bears do not like being surprised. One bear started moving faster after the quadcopter flew by. And the bear that had experienced the greatest increase in heart rate — from 41 beats per minute to 162 — moved nearly 7 kilometers in the next 28 hours, encroaching into a neighboring female’s territory.

  All in all, though, the bears weren’t stressed all that much, the researchers concluded.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pandering to conservative Americans⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I bought some cheap Chinese 2-way radios. The packaging has a big American flag and a “Designed in U.S.A.” claim, which I suspect is bullshit given the company involved. Also, there are two Bible verses referenced. This smacks of pandering to a particular slice of conservative Americans. All I want is cheap radios for skiing with my kids next winter, not a reminder of my country’s socio-political bullshit.

  This bullshit is not from the well-known Chinese radio maker Baofeng (baofengradio.com) but rather from a US company called “BTech” which has the deceptive URL BaoFengTech.com.

  Botryllus schlosseri, also called a star tunicate, is humans’ closest evolutionary relative among invertebrates in the sea. […] The way the invertebrate’s brain degenerates and disappears has important parallels to the way the brain degenerates in human neural disorders.
