  Seven Craziest Permafrost Discoveries From Russia & Alaska

The Ocean is often dubbed and considered the final frontier here on Earth, but many forgot that we still also have the Permafrost. Deep within the Permafrost's icy depths lies secrets that have been hidden for sometimes tens of thousands of years, and in recent times some of the craziest of these secrets have made their way to the surface, shocking even the most experienced scientist.

 Around 13,000 years ago, the bees that had settled in Northern Europe were driven out by the cold. In the Cevennes, whose valleys form a natural rampart, colonies of pure stock managed to subsist, by adapting to the environment. Men and women have returned to ancestral traditions in order to protect them…

Ever since it appeared nearly 80 million years ago, the bee has occupied a special place in evolution. Untiring worker, essential to the development of vegetables, it is one of the foremost species maintaining our equilibrium on Earth. Mankind is fascinated by its perfect organization and its incredible reproduction process. And the relationship between people and bees throughout the world is equally plural. In a world where the climate is changing and biodiversity is gradually disappearing under the effects of “human activity”, the bee is in danger and so is our relationship with it.

This series is equal to this exceptional story and to the last men who are still sharing a close life with the bees for their mutual survival. Original title: Master of Bees - The shepherd of the bees (France)

How Horses Went From Food To Friends

Do our modern horses descend from just one domesticated population, or did it happen many times, in many places? Answering these questions has been tricky, as we’ve needed to bring together evidence from art, archaeology, and ancient DNA…Because, as it turns out, the history of humans and horses has been a pretty wild ride.

 @BaltimoresBerzerker

Edited

Horses were an intricate part of the development and expansion of indo European languages, cultures, and pre-christian spirituality throughout Eurasia. They allowed the White indo European tribes to revolutionize nomadic life along with the wheel and the cart. They were absolutely essential to the way of life and death of the ancestors of all modern native European nations. Usually PBS makes a point to give a shout out to the indigenous cultures impacted by the topic of the video. Since they didn't this time, I figured it was appropriate to post interesting facts about the concerned associated cultural history.

"Today there are all kinds of endangered species with small, isolated populations and low levels of genetic diversity." And as long as humans continue growing in numbers and prosperity, the populations of these endangered species will tend to become smaller, more isolated, and lower in genetic diversity. Heroic efforts by conservationists may temporarily help a species here or there, but unless we change the fundamental cause of habitat loss and fragmentation (that cause being growth in human numbers and prosperity), conservation efforts can only delay, not prevent, the ongoing sixth major mass extinction in Earth's history (the first mass extinction to be caused by a species - us).

The map represents a time in Europe's history where you could travel over land from the continent of Europe to Britain and Ireland

And the animals below roamed over these lands with white European Ice Age hunters, there were no nations as we know today, no country called Ireland, Brittan, Germany, Russia, Spain, yet there were nations, tribal nations. These are groups of people who came together who controlled, protect their members of the community and hunting areas from other tribes. This would have occurred from the first people that moved into Europe

The Animals below are the Animals they hunted and some of these animals, Bears, Lions hunted some of these human hunters. We must remember that wolves lived during this period would have most likely hunted man when given the opportunity, but over the centuries we wiped out these particular wolves and the ones that walk among us today are the timid ones.

The Geography of the Ice Age

So, if i have this right... Earth has been in a continuous Ice Age for about 3 Million years now, with the warmer inter-glacial periods averaging 15,000 years long, and the glacial periods averaging more like 100,000 years? And with archeologists estimating the current modern human form being some 80,000 to 100,000 years old, older hominid forms prior to modern man, like Cro-magnon or Neanderthals, being less anatomically evolved. Not that remnants of the Neanderthal race have entirely disappeared... Modern humans carry about 2% Neanderthal DNA in them. So if over the next few thousand years the Milankovich Cycle sends Earth back into the glacial period for 100k years, what would work migration of 10 Billion people & warfare be like given the inability to live in glacial areas?

What can Stone Age art tell us about extinct animals?

Many Europeans (Whites) know very little about the animals their ancient ancestors hunted and the following images can help in remedying this. There were a diverse number of animals that European Caucasians hunted throughout the Ice Age including Bison, Wild Horses, Cave Lions, Cave Bears, Wolves, Wild Cattle, Red Deer, Roe Deer, Fallow Deer, Beaver and Mammoth Elephants. 

The animals of Europe are very similar to, or the same as animals found in North America.  Europe also has Beaver, Lynx, as well as a number of deer including Reindeer, Elk (known as a Moose in USA and Canada), Black and Brown Bears, White Swans, Hares and Rabbits, Wolverines, Stout and Weasels.

Europe's animals have had some irreversible extinctions including the Cave Bear, Woolly Mammoth, Woolly Rhinoceros and Giant Deer.  Scientists have spent considerable time on re-wilding initiatives in Europe with plans to reinvigorate the megafauna populations.  They have successfully reintroduced European Bison (pictured right).  In the Ice Age bison lived on open tundra, today they live in forest areas and during the First World War the numbers were decimated and only through careful and selective breeding have their numbers risen to roughly 3,000 today.

They have also successfully brought back the Musk Oxen into Scandinavian regions.  The Brown bear (pictured left), are found in North America, and Europe.

this makes a lot of sense. If they were anything at all like elephants, mammoths would need an enormous amount of grassland to thrive. A widespread change to that ecosystem would be all that was necessary to doom them. Hunting? Sure, but how many Homo Sapiens people that area even today?

The Truth of Horse Evolution - Part 2

The Truth of Horse Evolution - Part 1

 The domestication of horses from their wild ancestors is a long and complex story. In this video, we take a look at the relationship between our species in the past, exploring how horses were domesticated and changed human history forever.

Equus is the only extant genus of the family Equidae, surprisingly, there are three subgenera, Asinus (Donkeys), Equus (True Horses), and Hippotigris (Zebras), interestingly the Donkeys (subgenus Asinus) are the most basal subgenus within the genus Equus, while the zebras (subgenus Hippotigris) are the sister group to the true horses (subgenus Equus), in fact the subgenus Equus contains two species, the Tarpan (Equus ferus) and the Przewalski's Horse (Equus przewalskii), the former cladistically includes the Domestic Horse (Equus ferus caballus).
Horse Hunting around that Solutray (?) French cliff en route between the rivers and Massif Central, likely was a long-lived cultural tradition, were tribes from miles around convened to go hunting the yearly horse trek together. Cliff top gave a unique viewpoint miles around, so one could see the herds coming down the valleys, or better, see the smoke / fire signs from scouts further up on the trek route. Using small fires or even hunter groups posted visibly on the horses route*, they could then split off smaller herds which were then lead to the cliff face to finish them off. * Horses are easily scared of unusual, new things, and a loud group of scouts will easily make them go an other way -where hunters want them to go.
 
Such large hunting events might have been a sort of potlatch, the most successful chiefs throwing parties for others, perhaps even inviting guests from far off regions, exchanging gifts and bride partners and showing off valuable hides from cave lions, sabre tooth or rare, hard to catch smaller animals.
 
The many great cave pictures of horses confirm a mythical status, which it would have had as center piece of the yearly hunt. Only as a cultural tradition, such a place could have had such a long life as favored hunting & butcher location, and for the peoples around, there would have been a sort of cult around the horses, the bringer of food and welfare.
 
Scientists might want to check the horse's teeth or bones for season signs, as most likely it would be the autumn trek that was targeted, the beasts being fat and healthy after the summer - and, a good time for a party with warm evenings and the need to fatten up for the winter, also for us humans ;)
There was only thing missing in your video is that in studying horse DNA only about 10%percent of the original male DNA exist today where 90% of the female original DNA exist. They can now trace the female horses DNA of individuals back to their original herd.
I found this by studying to write the ancient history of my Sarmatian tribe DNA. We must have been using the male horses in battle through the centuries. But the fact that we can trace the females back to their original herd, which will maybe lead to us Slavs finding our original horse herd as well. I can tell you that the herd may family was last attached to was in 1400 A.D. when the Tartars invaded eastern Europe and The Polish Hussars came riding out to find all the Slavic herdsmen to defend against the invading Tartars.
What is interesting my name sake became the archery commander during the last battle with the Tartars and won a place in Poland and the Hussars. I even know the name of the clan that found my herd and brought us to Pomerania Poland. I even know the coat of arms he won as the archer commander. For the herdsmen were not trained as well as Hussars when they would be found.

Saiga antelope

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The saiga antelope (/ˈsɡə/, Saiga tatarica) is a critically endangered antelope that originally inhabited a vast area of the Eurasian steppe zone from the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains and Caucasus into Dzungaria and Mongolia.

They also lived in Beringian North America during the Pleistocene. Today, the dominant subspecies (S. t. tatarica) is only found in one location in Russia (in the Republic of Kalmykia and Astrakhan Oblast) and three areas in Kazakhstan (the Ural, Ustiurt, and Betpak-Dala populations). A proportion of the Ustiurt population migrates south to Uzbekistan and occasionally Turkmenistan in winter. It is extinct in the People's Republic of China and southwestern Mongolia. It was hunted extensively in Romania and Moldova until it became extinct in those regions at the end of the 18th century. The Mongolian subspecies (S. t. mongolica) is found only in western Mongolia.[3][4

 During the last glacial period, the saigas ranged from the British Isles through Central Asia and the Bering Strait into Alaska and Canada's Yukon and Northwest Territories. By the classical age, they were apparently considered a characteristic animal of Scythia, judging from the historian Strabo's description of an animal called the kolos that was "between the deer and ram in size" and was (understandably but wrongly) believed to drink through its nose.[18]

Cave Bear

"The cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) was a species of bear that lived in Europe and Asia during the Pleistocene and became extinct about 24,000 years ago during the Last Glacial Maximum. Both the word "cave" and the scientific name spelaeus are used because fossils of this species were mostly found in caves. The cave bear's range stretched across Europe; from Spain and Great Britain in the west, Italy, parts of Germany, Poland, the Balkans, Romania and parts of Russia, including the Caucasus; and northern Iran."

"Between the years 1917 and 1923, the Drachenloch cave in Switzerland was excavated by Emil Bächler. The excavation uncovered more than 30,000 cave bear skeletons. The unusual finding in a deep chamber of Basua Cave in Savona, Italy, is thought to be related to cave bear worship by Neanderthals, as there is a vaguely zoomorphic stalagmite surrounded by clay pellets."

Giant Ice Age wolf head found in Siberia

The severed head of a wolf that died about 40,000 years ago has been found in Siberia perfectly preserved in the Siberian permafrost.

Press AssociationJune 14, 20195:11am

Russian scientists have found the furry head of an Ice Age wolf perfectly preserved in the Siberian permafrost.

The head, which died 40,000 years ago, was discovered in the Russian Arctic region of Yakutia.

Valery Plotnikov, a top researcher at the local branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, said the animal belonged to an ancient subspecies of wolf that lived at the same time as the mammoths and became extinct alongside them.

Scientists said it was an adult, about 25 per cent bigger than today's wolves, but did not say whether it was male or female.

Mr Plotnikov called the discovery unique because scientists previously only had found wolf skulls without tissues or fur, while this head has ears, a tongue and a perfectly preserved brain. END

 Scientists working in a remote area of northeast Siberia have made a remarkable discovery.

The remains of an 18,000-year-old puppy were found by a team of Swedish researchers exploring a site near Yakutsk.

The canine - which was two months old when it died - has been remarkably preserved in the permafrost of the Russian region, with its fur, nose and teeth all intact.

But DNA sequencing has been unable to determine the species.

Scientists say that could mean the specimen represents an evolutionary link between wolves and modern dogs

"When modern humans first wandered into Europe some 50,000 years ago, this snaggle-toothed cat was there to greet them.

Painstaking genetic analysis of a jawbone dredged up from the bottom of the North Sea has now confirmed the theory that the so-called scimitar cat Homotherium latidens lived in Europe much longer than previously believed.

Until recently, the earliest fossil of a Homotherium in the region dated to about 300,000 years ago, and many paleontologists had assumed that’s when the large cat went locally extinct."

For the record it's saber tooth CAT not TIGER. they were only distantly related to tigers they weren't even a member of the family PANTERA LEO (tigers, lions, leopards, jaguars). they were a branch of the feline family that is gone completely. and it's highly unlikely they were striped.

@jenniferbeyer6412

There was an experiment done a few years ago by a scientist, can't remember the name, who built a jaw out of metal put it on a small tractor and was able to try different methods of biting, in the stomach/ flank, and the neck. They were able to work out that the neck bite would rip the large blood vessels and windpipe. The flank bite would not work, because it put too much strain on the teeth and could break them. It was a interesting video. It was a very in-depth study of how the cat made the kills.
Members of the genus Smilodon are more properly nicknamed "saber-toothed lions" because their behavior is far more similar to that of lions than tigers, with Smilodon species known to hunt in groups called prides, which are mostly made of females with fewer fully grown males, like with lions, infanticide is present after the original lead males are defeated, mainly so they would ensure own progeny, however, despite common names, saber-toothed cats are a wholly distinct subfamily (Machairodontinae) from modern cats (subfamily Felinae), hence the division of cats (family Felidae) into only three recognized subfamilies: †Proailurinae (Primitive Cats), †Machairodontinae (Saber-Toothed Cats), and Felinae (Modern Cats).
A large proportion of their biting angle is spanned by their canines. Also, the canines and their support in the skull seem to be prone to breakage! Weren't they scavenger?

I think the issue of how the saber-toothed cats used their teeth has been been pretty well figured out. It can't be confirmed through observation, of course, but given the relative fragility of the teeth, we know they couldn't have been used to bit down on bone, so biting down to break a prey animal's neck is not a possibility -- and those dagger-like teeth wouldn't have helped in doing that anyway. The length, the sharp inner edge, and the powerful body all argue very compellingly for an ambush predator who uses its massive, powerful body -- more robustly built, and much stronger than other big cats -- to grab on and hold on, and possibly to wrestle prey down, to deliver a bite almost certainly to the soft tissues of the prey's throat. This would avoid breaking those teeth on bone, and the prey would quickly asphyxiate and/or bleed out from severed blood vessels. The throat is the only target that makes sense -- the prey's belly would be equally soft and unlikely to break those teeth, but that wouldn't result in a swift enough kill. Any other targets would probably be too well protected by bone for a smilodon to try and bite there, and risk breaking its teeth.
 
Also arguing for this is the comparatively weak bite they had. I know in the video, that one paleontologist noted the larger attachment area on the skull for the jaw muscles, and deduced they had a powerful bite, but I've read elsewhere that they had comparatively weak bites, because the zygomatic arches, through which the jaw muscles pass, are fairly small, and thus limit the size of the jaw muscle. This makes perfect sense if they are using their sharp teeth to slice through soft tissue; a super-powerful bite isn't at all necessary for that. The slicing action of the teeth would do the work, not the power of the bite, and this also accounts for how those teeth developed a sharp inner edge to make them better slicers of soft tissue.
 
Smilodon ultimately went extinct because it was just too specialized a predator. It was evolved beautifully to tackle the large megafauna of Pleistocene. But once they began to disappear, also thanks to the changing climate no doubt, it was simply too specialized to adapt and switch to smaller, fleeter prey.
Sabre tooth didn't kill it's prey with a bite, it killed it's prey with it's mouth closed and sneaking in an ambush attack with stabbing with an axe-swaying motion style of it's sabre tooth on it's prey's vital parts.
While interesting... some of the information in this is rather dated. More recent tests on the skulls have actually found that Smilodon actually had a weaker bite force ton an African Lion, which is quite telling, when the Smilodon species in California at the end of the Pleistocene was about the same size as the Siberian Tiger, with a max weight over 600 pounds, and Smilodons in South America at around the same time were even larger. But they had a proportionately weaker bite force than those of Pantherine cats.

When Lions Ruled Europe

 "Cave Lions once lived all across Europe, Asia and even in North America and were clearly important to early humans. But what did these animals look like? Why did they go extinct? And how did people interact with them?"

When you look at this picture and see a man at 83kg and a lion ranging from 180 to 400kg, it would make you question how people back then defended themselves against lion attacks. Today's so-called experts have said the Neanderthals only had spear stabbers, not throwing spears. Many find it hard to believe Neanderthals didn't have a type of throwing weapon. I think they would have used wooden spear thrower to deliver wooden sticks with sharp points to hunt game and to defend themselves. Lions and Wolves must have killed many Neanderthals and Ice Age White Europeans.

Very interesting! Pleistocene megafauna, particular those in Europa, always fascinated me. Even wrote my final project on them. Cave lions are fascinating for sure. Would you perhaps cover some of their fellow megafauna from that time and place? Such as their fierce rivals, the cave hyenas? Some new research suggests that cave hyenas were the most common and dominant predator of Pleistocene Europe. Here's a compliation of scources. https://www.deviantart.com/anonymousllama428/journal/Mammoth-steppe-carnivore-ecology-645479135 It also has, in addition to hyenas, also some pretty interesting information on the likes of bears, dholes, homotheriums, cave lions, cave leopards and wolves.

An analysis of the microscopic wear on the teeth of the legendary “man-eating lions of Tsavo” reveals that it wasn’t desperation that drove them to terrorize a railroad camp in Kenya more than a century ago.

The tale teeth tell about the legendary man-eating lions of Tsavo

 

LIONS OF TSAVO

It's been proven in recent years that after testing the skulls that they didn't kill anywhere near 135 people. One lion killed roughly 40 people and the other about half of that. Both of the lions' had missing canines so they couldn't hunt their usual prey. The cave from the movie was a burial site, not a den where the lions lived and ate. Their skulls and hides are in the Fields Museum in Chicago. Great movie but a lot of liberties were taken to make it seem much worse than the truth.

He just keeps going around displaying and the females are all ready to mate with him and he just walks around them like they aren't there. The look on the females faces is: what the heck I said OK let's go and you just walk away. Maybe he has to rejuvenate himself after each mating.

" David Attenborough is in the Swiss Jura Mountains to discover the secrets of a giant. Beneath his feet lies a vast network of tunnels and chambers, home to a huge empire of ants. It is believed to be one of the largest animal societies in the world, where over a billion ants from rival colonies live in peace. Their harmonious existence breaks many of the rules for both ants and evolution, and raises some important questions."

"In Bohemia, at the very heart of Europe, south of the Golden City of Prague and guarded by medieval castles, lies a hidden mosaic of lakes and gently flowing rivers, of misty forests and mysterious peat bogs."

This important wetland, shaped both by nature and man, is a magnet for plant, animal life and blue frogs and carp fist are caught for eating.

Amber is filled with sunlight and mined from the Earth's crust, making it a darling of kings’ and alchemists' in the past. In this edition of Inland Visions, we head to Russia's Kaliningrad region to uncover its mysteries.

Host Sean Thomas discovers the source of this precious mineral with paleontologist Eduard Mychko, and then hears the legends that made it so magical from Amber Museum curator Irina Krivonos.

Will Sean finally get his hand's on some amber of his own? He's off to meet chief surveyor of the Kaliningrad Amber Combine Oleg Papin to see the mining process. And, artist Zhanna Lopatkina opens up her workshop to reveal the secrets of working with such a delicate material.

Pine Tree resin has the same color, it could be where amber comes from. Very Interesting Documentary.

 So you think you've had strawberries- but have you had WILD STRAWBERRIES? Imagine the most delicious, tangy, sweet, juicy, and *strawberry* tasting strawberry you've ever had and then multiply it by ten! Then you'd come close to the flavor of a wild strawberry. As Wren, our narrator behind today's video puts it:
"Some people measure their riches in expensive cars, nice vacation homes, or luxury clothing. But that’s only stuff that you can buy with money. When I stand in my secret berry patch with a handful of strawberries, or when I look at a freezer full of wild berries tucked away, waiting the blustery winter day when I bring them out to give us a breath of spring-hope, I feel blessed beyond measure, and rich in something that no dollar could buy."

 For hundreds of millions of years, an abundance of large animals, the megafauna, was a prominent feature of the land and oceans. However, in the last few tens of thousands of years—a blink of an eye on many evolutionary and biogeochemical timescales—something dramatic happened to Earth’s ecology; megafauna largely disappeared from vast areas, rendered either actually or functionally extinct. Only in small parts of the world do megafauna exist at diversities anything close to their previous state, and, in many of these remaining regions, they are in a state of functional decline through population depletion and range contraction.
 
The last ice age peaked around 20,000 years ago. Glaciers covered huge areas of North America, Europe, South America, and Asia. The last ice age was during the Pleistocene epoch which was a geological period starting 2.6 million years ago and ending 11,700 years ago. This epoch saw many glacial and interglacial periods. When the climate was cooler, the glaciers advanced. When it was warmer, they retreated. During the last ice age, global temperatures were about 11 degrees Fahrenheit (or 6 degrees Celsius) cooler than today. This last ice age began 115,000 years ago and ended 11,700 years ago.
 
With cooler temperatures and a lot of ice cover, there was less precipitation and less rainfall. Snow and ice reflected more of the sun’s rays, only adding to the cold. In addition, sea levels were much lower as more of the oceans were locked up as ice. This resulted in land bridges that had previously been covered by the sea. These bridges allowed species to access islands from the mainland and even cross from one continent to another.
