THE MEMORY OF ELEPHANT

To elephants, especially to Africans we ascribe the admirable memory. They leave to certain common place before their death, to cemetery of elephants. The second information isn't demonstrated. The British scientists from University of Sussex confirmed the truth of other assertion about elephants, that them excite the look at dead members of their tribe. The experiments took place in national park Amboseli in Kenya. During first experiment investigators watch the reaction of animals on tusk of elephant, on skull and on piece of wood. . Many members of 19 families of elephants, which took part in experiment paid attention especially to tusk, they was snuffing and catching it with their trunk. After that the investigators presented to elephants the skull of buffalo, other of rhinoceros and the skull of elephant. In the second case elephants paid attention especially to skull of elephant. During the third experiment elephants got to judge four skulls of their dead guide of herd - they paid equal attention to every skull. The investigators suppose that the strong reaction of animals on tusk and skull of elephant can be a consequence catching tusks of others elephants with their trunk. But always isn't obvious why elephants pay so great attention to scraps of their fellow and others mammals don't do it. This mystery would be the thing of other investigation.

THE INVIDIOUS TEETH

During investigation of remains of skeleton from 1500-years old cemetery in the Ukraine the Germans scientists was surprised, because they didn't find any caries on the tooth of found physicals remains. People, who during their life ate above all meat and fishes, had wholly health teeth. The ancient dead people, whose food was consisted of agricultural product had the teeth enough damaged by pips of sand from grain, but not even this people didn't have any caries. The scientists think, that it's because of it, that people was eating many raw hard food.

THE MORE EASY OPERATION

The benign augmented corpuscles next to thyroid gland are often the reason of defect of transformation of calcium in organism, because these corpuscles are making parathormon, which is regulating a surface of this element in blood. The result can be formation of stones of kidney or the affection of bones. The operation can help - though the entrance to four some millimeters big corpuscles on the back side of thyroid isn't easy, the butcher have to do a long cut, so there always stay a long scar on the throat.
The procedure, which was developed at university clinic in Germany Mannheime could be the solution. They will offer to patient substance called protoporphyrin IX some hours before the operation. If the corpuscles next to thyroid will be irradiations by blue light, they will become red and we can distinguish them easier. As well the operation can be shorter - the operation will take only one hour, not two.

THE BIASED IMAGE

According to statistics the affections on cancer of skin increasingly increase. That's because of hole in the ozone layer and because of abnormal sunbathing. However the scientists from Medical School Hanover in New Hampshire in the USA think, that appearance of this dangerous illness didn't go up during last years, just the experts this illness find sooner. For example, in the USA in 2001 the doctors diagnosed merely ill people like in 1986.
