AI Thread Summary
Licorice is currently facing the threat of extinction, primarily due to the so-called "liquorice wars" that have emerged in recent years. This situation has raised concerns not only for licorice itself but also for related species, such as snipe, which are now considered endangered as a consequence of these conflicts. The discussion highlights the urgent need to address the factors contributing to the decline of these species.

Thread 'Did they discover another descendant of homo erectus?'

The study provides critical new insights into the African Humid Period, a time between 14,500 and 5,000 years ago when the Sahara desert was a green savanna, rich in water bodies that facilitated human habitation and the spread of pastoralism. Later aridification turned this region into the world's largest desert. Due to the extreme aridity of the region today, DNA preservation is poor, making this pioneering ancient DNA study all the more significant. Genomic analyses reveal that the...
