Many contemporary studies have used methods designed to study dogs—a poor proxy, as our furry friends have fewer facial expressions than their ancestors.

(These techniques have previously been used to study facial expressions in cats.)

These expressions were common to all of the gray, arctic, and Canadian wolf packs the researchers observed.

However, this coding mechanism is not necessarily transferable to other locust species.

In experiments, they observed that the ants treated their nest members' femur injuries by cleaning the wound with their mouths before amputating the leg by repeatedly biting it, while the tibia wounds were treated with just cleaning.

The scientists are now extending their research to other ant species that don't possess special antimicrobial glands to see if other ants have the ability to perform surgeries. 

The study found that in animals, a high-fat diet disrupts resident gut bacteria, alters behavior and, through a complex pathway connecting the gut to the brain, influences brain chemicals in ways that fuel anxiety.

"To think that just a high-fat diet could alter expression of these genes in the brain is extraordinary," said Lowry. "The high-fat group essentially had the molecular signature of a high anxiety state in their brain."

For example, researchers studying vitiligo, an autoimmune skin disorder, can directly assess how a potential intervention impacts autoimmune processes in skin tissue derived from people with vitiligo.

cratching serves many purposes such as maintaining claw health, provision of safety by marking and social communication

This holistic approach ensures a comprehensive understanding and effective management of scratching-related issues in domestic cats.

This theory is supported by the fact that side stitches become more likely if you eat or drink right before exercise.
