Different dogs

 

[Deus Irae]

Actual people have known this forever. But that's not science, or something, so now it counts:

It's well-known that dogs can learn words for spoken commands like "sit," "stand" and "heel."

But a new study has found they also can tell their "ball-ball" from their "dolly," "teddy," "chewy" or "squeaky squeak."

Brain scans reveal that dogs generally know that certain words stand for certain objects, researchers reported Friday in the journal Current Biology.

Words "activate a memory of an object when they hear its name," researcher Marianna Boros of Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary, said in a news release...

Not a happy post, unfortunately:

At least 500,0000 invasive barred owls' lives are at stake for encroaching on the endangered California spotted owl's territory.

The US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) plans to unleash 'hunters' in California, Oregon and Washington to kill about half a million nocturnal birds that are native to the eastern US.

Under the proposal, hunters would broadcast barred owl territorial calls to attract owls and shoot on sight, but in areas where firearm use is inadvisable, the protocol would be to capture and euthanize the creature.

However, the strategy to save one species has caused outrage among 75 groups that claim its actions could disrupt the wildlife and cause 'mistaken-identity kills.'

Owls have historically been protected from hunters, but the FWS claimed the barred owl has become an emerging threat to the spotted owl because they have a larger appetite, causing them to compete for the same prey...
