wild monster has gone after you dumbfounded you mixed out and see a tremendous branch has fallen on top of your tent the most obviously terrible thing about this is that you would have seen it coming if by some stroke of good luck you'd gaze upward prior to camping out half broken and spoiled branches are not difficult to recognize and it's never smart to set your tent on the right track underneath them something like this can sever all of a sudden and you'll be fortunate on the off chance that it doesn't tear your tent and damage you know crunch many travelers commit this error consistently and frequently paid the consequences for it looking into will likewise assist you with ensuring there are no wasp homes or bug Nets above you these could demonstrate surprisingly more terrible than a branch since wasps could do without to be upset and insects might end up being venomous now in the event that you see a lovely Stream and choose to break camp on its banks really focus on where precisely you set up your tent too on the off chance that you remain nearby the water particularly in spring or fall odds are good that you'll find yourself above water around midnight generally look at the weather conditions conjecture for the afternoon and the night later assuming there's an opportunity of downpour better avoid any waterways particularly Waterways the downpour could bring the water step up in it and make it burst its banks suffocating your little camp and demolishing your excursion yet regardless of whether you're a long way from water downpour could ruin it for you say you're by and by somewhere down in the timberland and tree crowns are safeguarding you from the climate precipitation actually gets to the timberland floor yet essentially it's not quite as terrible as in the open the following night when you set up for business in somewhere else you feel the ground is delicate and springy it's anything but a bog however only the last evening's

into your sanctuary ultimately finding its direction under your tent no big surprise you'll end up knee-somewhere down in downpour water when you awaken gracious what an extraordinary spot for taking a digit of rest after a long walk it's on a Peak so there's no water close by the Sun's sparkling and not a solitary tree to shut it out sunbathing here must be remarkable well it appears to be this way for the initial not many hours yet when you stay here lengthy enough you'll see the blunder of your choice direct daylight on your tent can make it sweltering surprisingly fast because of the materials it's caused of and you'll to feel it on your skin when you creep inside we should say you won't have any desire to remain in there for long until it's evening and the tents cool down basically same thing with the breeze in an open spot Gus can arrive at insane velocities and on the off chance that you haven't been cautious while pounding down the stakes you could express farewell to your tent sooner than you'd like is ideal to find a spot close to a tree that would shield you both from the Sun the breeze actually don't get enticed to camp close to A Solitary Tree when the weather conditions gauge isn't in support of yourself both bright and blustery weather conditions are OK yet on the off chance that there's a significant tempest coming a solitary standing tree will act as a lightning pole it's not hard to envision what might come assuming that lightning strikes a tree you're enjoying the great outdoors under hello you could receive a charge in return while winter setting up camp the weather conditions can be considerably more misleading recall the thing I said about direct daylight fail to remember it in winter it's ideal to have the sun gleaming on your tent the virus could get you regardless of how cool and costly your tent is and the breezes are for the most part substantially more horrendous in the virus season direct daylight will assist you with adapting to a large part of the coal one of the more normal missteps climbers make is beginning a pit fire excessively near the tent again the material of the tent behaviors heat quite well and it's great when it's warm yet it likewise bursts into flames effectively in some cases one flash is sufficient to copy your asylum descenders ensure there's adequate space between your tent and the open air fire and never leave your fire unaided when you nod off it's a standard to smother the fire so you don't awaken to a bursting Fiery blaze around you bugs can destroy even the most thrilling

how to shoot so you better avoid it's known as a Sandbox tree and you can find it in Amazonia at first its seeds are framed looking like a little Pumpkin as time passes by they Solidify and develop Yet Here comes the tomfoolery part similarly as they arrive at Pinnacle development the seeds pop and take shots out at a speed of 150 miles each hour they could in fact arrive at distances of 60 feet that makes it so dangerous to be in their manner during the impact cycle also the seeds are harmful too certain a few trees don't develop totally upstanding yet a tree that is all together bowed with its branches in any event, contacting the ground is a sight not to be missed such a tree called the El Arbol de la Sabina fills in Spain its shape relies upon the Breeze as the tree twists Toward its

and simply 100 displays exist right up 'til now in the wild the researchers don't want to reveal their area they need to ensure the trees are very much protected additionally they're significant for science as concentrating on them might assist us with uncovering new data on the World's past the bark of the tree can show us a wide range of things like different temperature periods or openness to different synthetic compounds the tree of life gets its name since it's ready to endure troublesome circumstances and truly Flourish situated in the desert edges of Bahrain the prosopis community

Crows aren't just smart, they are scarily smart
now this is something to crawl about they might not seem to be the smartest creatures in the world but some crows actually have brains bigger than yours in proportion to the rest of their bodies of course the new Caledonian Crow has a brain that makes up nearly three percent of its total body weight the proportion is similar to that in dolphins in great apes an adult woman's brain only weighs around two percent of their body weight I think mine's lower than that research has also shown that the Crow's forebrains are more packed with neurons than those of primates this area of the brain defines the intelligence of an animal so more neurons means better cognitive reasoning they could even be the smartest non-humans on the planet and smarter than seven-year-old humans scientists offered six wild crows a series of tests to see how well they understand causal relationships the tests were based on esop's Fable where a Thirsty Crow was dropped rocks to raise the water level in a pitcher the real life crows had to drop heavy objects into tubes filled with water the birds were given a choice of objects to drop they knew they had to choose solid and not Hollow objects to drop and a tube filled with water and not sand they also opted for the tube with a higher level of water knowing it would get them to the final goal with less work all of the birds have successfully solved the puzzle unlike little humans aged four to six and faster than 7 year olds another experiment has proved that crows are capable of analogical thinking the smart birds were given a tray with three cups on it the middle cup had a card on it with a collar a shape or a number the side cups also had images on top of them one the same as on the middle cup and one different from it there was food inside the cup with a matching picture crows quickly figured out how it all worked and started choosing matching cards to get the tree during the next round of the experiment they got cards with pairs of items on it these were pairs of identical items on two of the cards let's say two circles and two triangles the remaining two cards had diverse images a circle with a heart and a square with a triangle so they had to find a match for a card with two identical items and two different items the birds instantly figured out the task and picked the right cards each time no dummies on every continent except Antarctica and South America crows and their close relatives Ravens magpies and Jays have learned not only to survive among humans but to make use of this relationship crows who live in cities in America and Japan for example have learned to drop tough nuts onto streets with heavy traffic and wait for the vehicles to crush the nuts for them then the birds wait for traffic lights to go green for pedestrians and safely pick up the treats from the ground in 2011 a team from the University of Washington proved that crows can recognize human faces and remember their enemies one researcher put on a caveman mask and another one wore a Dick Cheney mask the caveman visited five sites to catch and ban some wild crows once they were released the birds made some loud angry cause they did it to warn their Pals there was a bold Intruder nearby the pals would then fly over to punish the Neanderthal with some pretty angry sounds the experiments Dick Cheney did pretty much nothing scientists would revisit the exact same spots for five years and the birds would always greet the Caveman with angry skulls and ignore Dick Cheney some of the birds who took part in the original experiment were not even alive anymore but it looked like they had passed down the knowledge to their young they can also somehow tell if a human presents a direct threat to them or is just minding their own business crows take off much sooner when they notice a person moving their way and staring at them most birds and other animals prefer to run away when humans are approaching even when they're just strolling by crows feel when it's okay to stay relaxed and when they must escape Danger family means a lot to crows they normally find one partner for life and live in pairs or small family groups in the cold winter time they join hundreds and even thousands of their peers to survive the nights in a unit called a roost during the nesting season young crows help their parents defend the nest from many Intruders they can also bring food to their parents or directly to the youngest siblings it's like takeout some birds keep helping their parents for several years crows also make friends for life and form huge gangs to protect themselves from predators they swoop in to harass any unwanted aggressive guests and even go after larger birds like owls or Hawks or other animals sometimes they also get together to steal food from larger creatures members of the group distract the Predators attention While others do this sneaky business now it may all sound like to you but crows have a whole variety of sounds and each of them means something to others of their kind they can warn prospective Intruders that they're about to enter their territory or let the relatives know their location that language isn't Universal it varies from Valley to Valley pretty much like Regional dial-ups if a crow decides to join a new fly for some reason it will have to learn to cause their language by mimicking the sounds of other members of the new flock crows have more self-control than many people if someone offered you a treat you could get right now and another more delicious one you'd have to wait for what would you choose the smarty pants with feathers have proven they know that waiting a bit pays off researchers first tested the Crow's dietary preferences bread grapes sausage fried pork fat and other treats each of the birds had their favorites then they offered them their least favorite food after a few seconds to 10 minutes the researchers offered the birdies a more delicious treat or a bigger portion of the same snack they had the option to grab whatever they got and fly but that would mean no hope of getting a better treat the participating crows chose to wait only for a higher quality snack they'd enjoy more they didn't want to wait to get the second portion of the same old snack only when they got the desired food would the participants leave the testing grounds other birds like pigeons chickens and gray parrots didn't show that kind of patience and self-control during the same experiment Our Heroes of the day never waste food when they have too much of it they hide it in caches for later in some secret spots or in leaves or other objects once they feel hungry again they know exactly where to go to find their supplies sometimes they also add some markers on the top of the cache to remember where it was or move food from spot to spot to protect it from some other hungry mouths they also know which food goes bad first and finished meat before other types of meals like nuts or bread that stay good for longer crows also craft and use their own tools they've learned to carve thin strips of wood and skewers and bend wires into hooks to pick up food that is Out Of Reach they remember the design and recreate the same kind of tool crows also know how to combine materials that wouldn't work separately to build one complex tool only humans in great apes were known to do something like that before it also looks like crows enjoy the process of making and using a tool their behavior changes after successfully using a tool just like we humans feel happy after finishing a complicated work assignment .

Do gun buybacks work?
This is a list of countries with the most guns per person. Leading the list is the US, the only place in the world where guns outnumber people. Yemen is second with 53 guns per 100 people. This is primarily because Yemen has been fighting a civil war for a decade. Tied in third place is Serbia. No other country in Europe has more firearms per capita than Serbia. This is also a legacy of conflict, most recently in the former Yugoslavia throughout the nineties. But Serbia is trying to get off the list. To do that, they're trying something big. They're asking Serbians to surrender their guns. And they're not the first to try it. From the end of the Yugoslav wars in 2001 until 2023, there were five mass shootings in Serbia. But then in May of 2023, there were two, just one day apart. First, a seventh grader opened fire at a school and killed eight students and a security guard. The very next day, another mass shooter killed eight people and wounded 15 a few miles away. In response, Serbia's president vowed to disarm the country. His plan included a monthlong program that would allow Serbians to surrender illegal guns, called a "weapons amnesty." These are also sometimes called "gun buybacks." It's not Serbia's first amnesty, but it's been the most successful in the country's history. More than 26,000 weapons, 1.3 million rounds of ammunition and 6000 explosives were surrendered. But will removing all these weapons work? And how do we know? One place to look for answers is a country that's tried something similar: Australia. On April 28th, 1996, a young man drove to the tourist town of Port Arthur, Tasmania, and opened fire with a semi-automatic rifle, killing 35 people and wounding 18. As Australia prepares to mourn the victims, there have been urgent calls for tough new gun laws. Just 12 days later, Australia adopted a national firearms agreement. It centered around ten core measures, including registration, licensing and safety training. But the number one priority was a ban on automatic and semi-automatic weapons, the most dangerous in mass shootings. To retrieve these newly banned weapons already in circulation, the agreement also included a yearlong gun amnesty. Asking Australians to give up their weapons wouldn't be easy. "Are you going to surrender your arms?" But it turns out, the conditions were just right. And looking at the features of Australia's program can help us understand why it worked. First, gun reform in Australia had overwhelming public support. After Port Arthur, thousands took to the streets to demand change. And polls showed that about 90% of Australians backed them up. Second, Australia's weapon amnesty program was national, not just in certain parts of the country. And the government paid fair prices for every item surrendered. Businesses impacted even got government assistance. The amnesty was anonymous, with no consequences. But it was also mandatory, with serious penalties for noncompliance. To facilitate compliance, buyback centers where Australians could drop off their weapons were set up across the country. Finally, once the weapons were collected, they had to be destroyed. That typically meant crushed and then melted. And all of this had to be implemented alongside new firearm restrictions to keep illegal weapons out of the public's hands after the amnesty was over. Australia's 1996 buyback removed more than 640,000 guns from circulation. By some estimates, that was about 20% of all weapons in Australia. So did it make a difference? First we can look at the frequency of mass shootings. From 1980 to 1996, Australia experienced 14 mass shootings, but in the 18 years since Port Arthur there were none. But that was also probably a result of Australia's broader gun reforms. Looking specifically at the gun buyback program, the big impact we find is on suicides. A study found that the states where more firearms were turned in had greater reductions in suicides. Since 1990, all these countries have had weapons collection programs in which at least 10,000 firearms were destroyed. But they haven't all been as successful as Australia's. In the US, it's estimated that since the 80s, more than 500 gun buybacks have been held in 37 states. But in the US buybacks are small locally run programs. They're voluntary, aren't typically accompanied by new firearm restrictions, and while the majority support voluntary buybacks, they have yet to amass overwhelming public support. Nationally, both mass shootings and overall gun deaths continue to rise. Now let's look at Serbia. Serbia's recent weapon amnesty isn't mandatory and doesn't include compensation, but it does have one thing that separates it from Serbia's earlier gun amnesties: the level of public support, and the calls to look beyond policy and examine the culture that got them here in the first place. Most gun amnesties are temporary, and maintaining their effectiveness takes work and consistency. Even in Australia, an increasingly powerful gun lobby is chipping away at gun laws. Still, Australia's world-leading response to gun violence is instructive for other countries on the list. It might be impossible to replicate Australia's exact conditions and apply every single lesson. But if Australia is any indication of what's possible, Serbia could go from topping the list of countries with the most guns per person, to one that is off the list. And if Serbia can do it, maybe other countries that suffer from gun violence can do it too.

Why the secret door of the Great Sphinx is never openedÂ
Taj Mahal in India there are countless stores all over the world that haven't been open for decades and even centuries the question is why it seems that nowadays you can open any door you want the truth is that some doors were sealed for a grave reason and so far nobody has found out what treasures and Mysteries they hide here are four doors that keep their secrets all too well the Taj Mahal first up we've got the Taj Mahal in India one of the most romantic places in the world Shah Jahan commissioned it in 1631 and dedicated it to his third wife who he loved like crazy they were married for 19 years and had a whopping 14 kids together but unfortunately she passed away while giving birth to their last baby Shah Jahan was heartbroken and decided to build an epic tomb to remember her by the construction took a whopping 20 years to finish the building has quite an interesting layout the design is super unusual with these four massive 130 fin tall minarets that stand on the corners of a huge platform they're not just there for looks back in the 17th century Architects were having some serious issues with buildings collapsing under their own weight so the Chief Architect of the Taj Mahal made sure to place those minarets as far away from the tomb as possible and he even tilted them in a way so that if they did fall they wouldn't wreck the rest of the Taj Mahal talk about planning ahead the Taj Mahal is hiding some crazy Secrets there are sealed rooms all over the place that nobody is allowed to enter and if you check out photos of the building from the Riverside you can spot two basements but guess what they're sealed up too nobody knows what's inside or why they've been locked up since the time of Shah Jahan apparently there's a good reason why those rooms are off limits some researchers think that they were built using marble which turns into a different substance called calcium carbonate if it's exposed to carbon dioxide and when that happens little bits of marble start chipping off like crazy to make matters worse there's no air flowing into these rooms that means that if too much CO2 builds up in the basement the four minarets could collapse but wait there's more some people think that the body of Shah jahan's wife can be found in one of these sealed up rooms in pristine condition why not who knows what the mysterious rooms might keep
