Conditions on the peak of Llullaillaco, 2050 metres or 6739 above sea level, are cold, dry and hostile – but some mice somehow survive there.

in 2020,  researchers found a leaf-eared mouse (Phyllotis vaccarum) near the summit of Llullaillaco a volcano on the border of Argentina and Chile and the latest research shows that they actually make the mountain their home.

Yes, when they were created to live on Earth,  they can even take the hardest environment as their home.

Australian bird is an ecosystem engineer

Earthen piles built by a chicken-like bird in South Australia aren’t just egg incubators — they may also be crucial for the distribution of key nutrients throughout the ecosystem.

That is what the malleefowl (Leipoa ocellata) does.  Like the elephants, they also take care of the environment. In deserts, owls and giant lizards also support plant and animal life with their burrows .

These birds  are called “ecosystem engineer. ”

Evolutionist get a view on what caused the ridges on Jupiter’s moon Europa

Joel Kontinen

Jupiter’s moon Europa is covered in strange pairs of parallel ridges. Now, evolutionary researchers have found a similar feature in Greenland and used it to unravel how such ridges form – which may help us understand how Europa’s subsurface ocean interacts with its icy shell.

So, Greenland example shows how Europa’ s ice formed.

 Riley Culberg at  Stanford University in California spotted a similar pair of ridges in satellite images of the Greenland ice sheet. He and his colleagues analysed how these formed and found that it was due to pockets of liquid water within the ice sheet. When some of that water refreezes, it expands, creating cracks in the ground and pressurising the remaining water, which pushes upwards on either side of the refrozen section. That upwelling causes the parallel ridges

According to evolutionists, this might be good for prospects of life on Europa “If there’s a lot of shallow water in the ice shell, it means that there has to be some amount of exchange between the ocean and the surface,” says Culberg. “That kind of movement allows for the mixing of chemistry and heat that you need in order for life to happen.” If there is life in Europa’s ocean, it might also make its way into these pockets of fluid, making it far easier to find, he says.

But we would say that the solar system was made by God,, So .Greenland   is an aberration,

New Lazarus animal found

According to evolution, species tend to flourish for a some time and then die off. However, at times even the dead come back to life.

The (Rhinolophus hilli),is the latest of these Lazarus animals  The most famous of them is the Coelacanth.

In 2020, they found a chameleon in Madagascar. 

 Reseaerchers had not seen the bat  from 1981but it has made  has made a comeback,  Her is what Sience News tells us:

Julius Nziza still remembers the moment vividly. Just before dawn on a chilly January morning in 2019, he and his team gently extracted a tiny brown bat from a net purposely strung to catch the nocturnal fliers.

It was the  horsehow bat.

People groups arent that different

When God created the difference in people at the Tower of Babel, he merely changed their languages.

But here’s New Scientist says:

“People may subconsciously overestimate the presence of individuals from minority ethnic groups, even if they belong to those groups, which could create illusions of diversity within populations.”

It goes on to say;

“Individuals from the minority group are by definition less frequent,” says Rasha Kardosh at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel. “Therefore, we are more likely to notice them and so are more likely to remember their presence, and so we end up overestimating their presence.”

Yes, we often notice the difference in peoples, But still, all were made in God’s image-
