☆ DNA reveals surprises trapped in teeth of ‘Tsavo man-eater’ lions
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-11 | by ( Ashley Strickland | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +10 min

Thomas Gnoske, a collections manager at the museum, first spotted thousands of hairs trapped within the lions’ teeth when he examined their skulls in the 1990s. “Our analysis showed that the historic Tsavo lions preyed on giraffe, human, oryx, waterbuck, wildebeest, and zebra, and we also identified hairs that originated from lions. The Tsavo lions were maneless, like this adult male lion. The combined efforts opened a treasure trove of data about the lions’ prey as well as about the predators themselves. “It suggests that the Tsavo lions may have either traveled farther than previously believed, or that wildebeest were present in the Tsavo region during that time,” de Flamingh said.

Elon Musk surprised viewers with the unveiling of Tesla's Robovan at the 'We Robot' event Thursday. Musk shared on X that the Robovan's design was inspired by Art Deco trains. But the Robovan's exterior aesthetic appears to be inspired by the early 20th century Art Deco design period. In response to a user who asked about what inspired the design, Musk replied, "Art Deco trains." Art Deco trains were a product of the Art Deco era, which took place in the 1920s and 1930s.

CLEVELAND — Some Democrats working to re-elect Sen. Sherrod Brown in Ohio this fall are attempting to raise fears about his opponent’s Colombian family and heritage, drawing charges of racism from Republicans. “Our tax dollars, a Moreno family windfall. Bernie Moreno only cares about himself.”The rhetoric has become a late-emerging tension point in a race that could determine partisan control of the Senate. Ohio and Montana, two states where former President Donald Trump twice won by large margins, are the top two GOP targets.

The Cardinals escaped with a 24-23 win in San Francisco on Sunday despite trailing by 10 in the fourth quarter. Niners kicker Jake Moody was injured in the second quarter, which played a factor in the loss. Seattle’s loss keeps both the 49ers and Cardinals within one game of the division lead.

Washington CNN —Former President Donald Trump has delivered a barrage of lies and distortions about the federal response to Hurricane Helene. Over a span of six days, in public comments and social media posts, Trump has used his powerful megaphone to endorse or invent false or unsubstantiated claims. Monday: Trump falsely claims Biden hasn’t answered calls from Georgia’s governorDuring a visit to Georgia on Monday, Trump said of Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp: “He’s been calling the president, hasn’t been able to get him.”It was immediately clear that Trump’s claim was false. He added, “Think of it: We give foreign countries hundreds of billions of dollars and we’re handing North Carolina $750.”Trump’s claim is wrong.
