In recent fast paced life, the demands and pressures f wrk left me feeling mentally and physically stressed. I decided t discnnect frm my jb fr a while fr a mental break. As a nature lver, withut any delay, I came t Brne, the wrld’s third largest island.
Upn arrival, a lcal ffered t be my guide, which was a great bnus fr me. He led me thrugh the jungle and I was immersed in the explratin. One day, the guide turned ff the smth rad and tk me acrss a rugh hillside instead. We picked ur way gingerly when suddenly, a Rafflesia (大王花) appeared int my view amng thse stnes.

In 2018, Russian scientists tk a sil sample frm deep in the permanently frzen grund in Siberia in Russia. They discvered tw tiny rund nematdes (线虫) frzen in the sample, which were s small that they culd nly be seen with a micrscpe. Tests shwed the sil had been frzen fr abut 46,000 years ld.
