Somewhere out in the countryside, hidden behind a copse of trees, are fields full of dead human bodies. These corpses have been strategically laid out in rows, naked as the day they were born, and left to the mercy of the elements until all that’s left of them are bones.It sounds like a scene out of a horror film, but these places are real. They’re called taphonomic research facilities, or sometimes “body farms”—sites where forensic scientists study how the human body decomposes. (Don’t worry, the bodies are all donated.) By observing how fast cadavers break down in a controlled setting,…

You want them, you knead them, you gotta have ’em.In the great bagel debate, New York often takes the crown for tastiest in the world. And deservedly so—the Big Apple is big on bagels, offering chewy, dense, breakfast-time carb perfection that is hard to imitate elsewhere (there’s apparently something in the water—literally). But that doesn’t mean you can’t find a killer bagel in practically every state, enjoyed solo, as a sandwich, or piled high with typical accoutrements such as jelly, cream cheese, nut butters, or lox. We’ve rounded up some of the best of the best (in alphabetical order) so…

Wild bees strategically visit different flowers to balance their intake of protein, fat and carbohydrates, a study has found.A team of ecologists observed eight species of wild bumblebees in the Colorado Rockies over eight years to develop a comprehensive nutritional map.Focusing on pollen consumption, the team led by Northwestern University and the Chicago Botanic Garden tracked which flowers each bee species visited for pollen. They collected pollen samples from these plant species to understand their nutrient content.At the lab, the team measured each pollen sample’s macronutrient content and calculated its concentration of protein, fat and carbohydrates.Clear patterns emerged when the…

I’m watching overtourism in action. Within the iridescent marvel that is Croatia’s Blue Cave, four boats holding about a dozen people each have an allotted 10 minutes before we motor back out again so that the next batch of visitors can float in. About 1,500 people a day visit this beautiful grotto on the island of Biševo, the biggest attraction within the Vis archipelago, two hours and 20 minutes south of Split by ferry. After paying the €24 entrance fee, I’m left underwhelmed by this maritime conveyor belt. At least the 45-minute foot ferry from Komiža, on the archipelago’s main…
