Researchers at the Swedish Centre for Palaeogenetics have analyzed DNA from an extinct woolly rhinoceros found in the stomach of a frozen wolf pup. The discovery, the first of its kind from the Ice Age, provides new clues about the species' extinction. The analysis suggests climate change likely caused the rhinoceros's disappearance rather than human hunting.
20th Century Studios debuted the first trailer for Ice Age: Boiling Point at CinemaCon in Las Vegas on Thursday, bringing back the franchise after more than a decade. Voice actors Ray Romano, Denis Leary and Queen Latifah promoted the animated adventure, slated for theaters next February. The preview featured Scrat navigating volcanic chaos with his new baby.

A new study reveals that shifts in Antarctic Bottom Water circulation around 18,000 to 10,000 years ago drove the release of stored carbon into the atmosphere, contributing to the warming at the end of the last Ice Age. Researchers analyzed sediment cores to trace these changes, highlighting the Southern Ocean's role in the global carbon cycle. The findings suggest implications for modern Antarctic ice melt and climate projections.
