Much like religion or politics, how we understand sex and gender are fundamental to how we operate in the world and inspire a whole range of opinions--often in conflict with each other. But in the last five years or so, I’ve noticed some rather unusual ideas taking root. Number one is that distinct biological sexes don’t exist; sex categories like male and fema...

One of the most polarizing political issues of the day is President Trump’s proposed border wall.

The idea being that an unbroken, impassable wall would help deter illegal immigration and drug trafficking. According to a visual survey by USA Today, only about 650 miles of the nearly 2000-mile border is fenced. About half of that fencing can stop people on foot. The other half only prevents vehicles from crossing. Trump’s supporters see the wall as a necessar...

Fast forward to 2019 and we’ve yet to create dinosaurs, or any other creatures, by extracting ancient DNA. It turns out DNA molecules degrade pretty quickly, leaving us without the necessary blueprints to reconstruct extinct animals. But that doesn’t mean scientists have given up on de-extinction.

About six years ago, a wildlife biologist noticed a pack of mysterious creatures living on Galveston Island, a barrier island off the Gulf Coast of Texas. The creatures looked an awful lot like coyotes, but also red wolves, an ancient coyote-wolf hybrid that had been extinct in the wild for nearly 40 years. Eventually, scientists collected DNA samples from the mystery creatures, tested and analyzed them. The results showed they were coyotes harboring genes from the red wolf. This meant that even though the red wolf disappeared from the area long ago--at least in dog years--its genes lived on through coyotes. ...
