Using the controversial CRISPR technology, researchers at Northwestern University were examining a hormone called vasopressin and its receptor, Avpr1a.
They opted to try and remove the latter from a group of Syrian hamsters, with the expectation it would increase bonding and co-operation between the lovable little critters.

Avpr1a is understood to regulate things like teamwork and friendship as well as dominance and bonding 🐹 Credits: Getty

Chippies are struggling at the moment, with the prices sky-rocketing for fish, potatoes, and cooking oil.
A Government source said:

🗣 'It (whitefish) is included on a list of Russian products we’ve said we intend to introduce tariffs on. There are no timescales on when we intend to introduce the tariffs but we’ve made it very clear we intend to introduce them.' Picture: Reuters

It’s been a convoluted road to get here.

First mooted in 2015, Obi-Wan Kenobi started life as a movie before being shelved following the poor performance of Solo: A Star Wars Story 📉
It re-emerged in 2019 as a TV series for Disney+ and finally arrives at the end of this week almost 45 years to the day since A New Hope hit cinemas 📺

A Nasa satellite has captured the moment a massive underwater volcano home to sharks and other marine life - and nicknamed ‘Sharkcano’ - erupted in the depths of the Pacific Ocean 👇

This particular volcano – the Kavachi volcano – is well-known to scientists following an oceanic study that took place there in 2015.

Researchers found that fish and sharks inhabit the super-heated sulfer-infused acidic waters around the volcano.
The water contains volcanic rock fragments and it’s believed the sharks may have actually mutated to help them cope with the extreme conditions 🦈😳
