一项研究发现，大多数雌性日本犀甲虫一生只交配一次。这种行为与它们在野外最长约两到三周的成虫寿命有关，因此交配是一生一次的程序化事件。
据《日本时报》报道，山口大学研究人员的一项研究确定，大多数雌性犀甲虫一生只交配一次。日本犀甲虫成虫在野外的最长寿命约为两到三周，因此人们认为交配是一生只有一次的程序。文章相关关键词包括甲虫、山口大学、昆虫、动物。该报告发表于 2026 年 3 月 17 日，揭示了昆虫的繁殖策略。

Unique DNA analysis of extinct woolly rhinoceros in wolf stomach

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.
A parasitic ant species from Japan, Temnothorax kinomurai, has been confirmed to produce exclusively queens, with no males or workers. Researchers found that these queens reproduce asexually and invade colonies of related species to raise their offspring. This discovery reveals a novel form of social organization in ants.

An international study of mammals in zoos shows that limiting reproduction through contraception or sterilization increases average lifespan by about 10 percent. The effects differ between sexes, with males benefiting from reduced testosterone and females from avoiding pregnancy's physical toll. These findings highlight a key evolutionary trade-off between breeding and survival.
On Valentine's Day, amid celebrations of love, a question arises: are we loving the same person who is constantly changing? Science shows that most human body cells renew every 7-10 years, yet consciousness and memories remain constant.

Scientists have confirmed that Belgica antarctica, the southernmost insect on Earth, is ingesting microplastics in the wild. Lab experiments reveal that while the insect's larvae survive short-term exposure, higher plastic levels lead to reduced fat reserves. The findings highlight the global reach of plastic pollution, even in isolated Antarctica.
A University of Cambridge study ranks humans among the most monogamous mammals, closer to beavers and meerkats than to chimpanzees. By analyzing sibling ratios across species and human societies, researchers found that long-term pair bonding is unusually prevalent in our species. Even in cultures allowing polygamy, human monogamy exceeds that of most other mammals.

National Geographic's documentary Secrets of the Bees became available to stream on Disney+ and Hulu starting April 1. In a recent interview, entomologist Dr. Samuel Ramsey discussed his bee research at the University of Colorado Boulder and efforts to sequence honey bee genomes worldwide. The series highlights global bee health challenges and his work in Southeast Asia.
