Manchester United thought when they forked out £86m to Ajax for Brazilian winger Antony in the summer that they were getting a ready-made world beater capable of becoming the catalyst for getting bums off seats inside Old Trafford. During the club’s 3-2 defeat away to Arsenal on Sunday, Antony was unceremoniously hooked off in the 71st minute for Fred. Evidence, if ever it was needed, that he isn’t trusted to provide the winning spark against top opposition. But, despite United manager Erik ten Hag endearing himself to the club’s faithful fanbase and seemingly waving a magic wand over the the team’s humiliating 21/22 season, the acquisition…

A male leopard spent five hours with its head stuck in a metal pot in a village in the northern Indian state of Rajasthan. Local people told reporters that the animal appeared to have been foraging for water, and then got its head stuck inside the vessel. The confused and frightened animal wandered around the village as residents took pictures and videos. Wildlife officials eventually tranquilised the leopard and used a saw to remove the pot from its head. They told the local media that it seemed none the worse for its ordeal. A recent wildlife census estimates that India…
Mother Nature never cease to amaze, that’s for sure. This time, one of the most mysterious underwater creatures is baffling the marine biologists – the octopus.

The fossilized remains of a 419 million-year-old forest have been found in China, giving researchers new insights into a time when life began to emerge from the sea. The site, which is approximately the size of 35 soccer fields (250,000 square meters, or 2.6 million square feet), was discovered near Xinhang in China’s Anhui province. The Devonian era-forest was packed with lycopsid, a branchless tree similar to palm. The area is one of only three forests like it known to exist, with the others located in America and Norway. “The large density as well as the small size of the…

Jurgen Klopp isn’t making life easy for Harvey Elliott at Liverpool right now. The hope will be that it’s worth it in the end. Harvey Elliott is the only Liverpool player to feature in every game this season. At the same time, he’s having a mixed season – one where we’re only really seeing the best of the 19-year-old in bursts. But the reason why perhaps became clear this week. Elliott, after all, grabbed headlines with an extraordinary goal against Wolves in midweek. It was ‘astonishing’, in the words of Luis Garcia on Twitter. The former Reds’ no.10 labelled Elliott ‘brilliant’ for…
Paul Scholes and Ian Wright accused Bruno Fernandes of ‘looking for a penalty’ during Manchester United’s 3-2 defeat to Arsenal on Sunday. In the first half, with the game goalless, Fernandes appealed for a penalty when he had the chance to knock the ball past Aaron Ramsdale and put the ball into an empty net. Instead, he proceeded to initiate contact with the Arsenal goalkeeper, went down, the on-field referee waved play on and he wasted a very good opportunity. Unless you are a Manchester United fan, someone like Fernandes isn’t exactly a fan favourite for neutral supporters. The £68 million star (Sky…

The world’s oldest tree, a 9,500-year-old Norwegian Spruce named “Old Tjikko,” after Professor Leif Kullman’s Siberian husky, continues to grow in Sweden. Discovered in 2004 by Kullman, professor of Physical Geography at Umeå University, the age of the tree was determined using carbon-14 dating. “During the ice age sea level was 120 meters lower than today and much of what is now the North Sea in the waters between England and Norway was at that time forest,” Professor Kullman told Aftonbladet. Winds and low temperatures made Old Tjikko “like a bonsai tree…Big trees cannot get as old as this.” More info: National Geographic (h/t: mymodernmet, aftonbladet) Image…
In 2020, scientists found sparkling Peinaleopolynoe on hydothermal vents in the eastern Pacific – and were irresistibly reminded of the king of rock’n’roll Nearly 4,000 metres (13,000 feet) underwater in the Pescadero basin in the Gulf of California lie some of the Pacific’s deepest hydrothermal vents – and they’re covered in small iridescent worms. “You’ll see little pink sparkly worms, blue ones, red ones, black ones and white ones,” says Avery Hiley, a graduate researcher at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego. These are hungry scale-worms, or Peinaleopolynoe – peinaléos meaning “hungry” or “famished” in Greek – named…
