How quick is "suddenly"? And did the entire colony die at once? If it was something like moisture or lack of food, the entire colony wouldn't have died instantly. If the colony slowly withered away, then yes maybe moisture or lack of food but if it happened overnight, that's a different story.

Looks similar to a nematode but better pictures would help. There are a lot of free living species of nematodes and not all are parasitic. I am currently working on isopods as parasites and parasites of isopods. The parasites that infest isopods use them as intermediate hosts for birds usually...

It's not the import laws. It's the price of importing. Has to clear customs and be inspected...etc.

Najakeeper's objection was "Nucleic acids are not stable, they break apart easily even under perfect lab conditions sometimes (I know as I am a geneticist) and fossilized dinosaur bones are not ideal conditions unfortunately" here is a paper where the DNA was able to be extracted from...

here you go "geneticist" :http://www.sciencemag.org/content/257/5078/1933.short not exactly sure what you do but just remember there is an entire feild of genetics dedicated to ancient DNA. i have one right above me as i type this. just because yours is breaking down in the lab doesn't mean...

the mammoth project is already underway. and i will re-read that section of the book. it said something in regards to possibly being able to get DNA from that bone. as for not being able to get DNA from material that old......know one really knows cause it hasn't been tested.

Origin of Species is a tough read IMO....for me. Im sure others like it but its written in old english so its a bit different. on the whole jurassic park crap, all of Horners experiments are just that, experiments. He has to cull his animals before they hatch. Second, we don't have...

i can only imagine!! Thanks!

Planted my seeds two days ago. If anyone decides to try this be warned that the seeds are super small! I knew they were small but wasn't expecting them to be that small. They were about the size of sand grains. Good think I have some sharp forceps! I am also putting in an order for a...

im planning on trying lithops seeds here soon.

this made my day!!

thanks for the info!! might have to make the trip!

if you put animals that are too close together (such as muliple species of geckos) you might get hybridization. not a very good thing.

didn't see the texas part! lol!
