We usually imagine dinosaurs suppressing mammals. But the relationship may have worked both ways: small mammals and other vertebrates could have helped keep dinosaurs from becoming tiny. Ecological competition doesn’t run in only one direction.

Where Were All the Tiny Dinosaurs? Scientists May Finally Have an Answer
For all their astonishing diversity, dinosaurs seem to have hit one evolutionary limit: they almost never became truly tiny.

Breaking News! Code Yikes! On Monday, the global surface temperature reached an anomaly of more than 1.70°C above the pre-industrial baseline, setting a new daily record. The last time 1.70°C was broken was way back on March 20, 2025. Hot times ahead!

Evonne Goolagong Cawley (b. #OTD in 1951) broke systemic barriers as one of the most prominent #Indigenous Australian athletes in history. #tennis + 14 Grand Slam titles (1971-1980) + World No. 1 ranking, 1976 + First mother to win Wimbledon in the Open Era, 1980 #WomenInSport
Side-by-side photographs of Australian tennis trailblazer Evonne Goolagong Cawley (born July 31, 1951), celebrated as a 14-time Grand Slam champion and a historic Wiradjuri icon. On the left, a close-up shot captures her head and shoulders as she glances warmly toward the camera with a joyful, toothy smile. Her curly, dark brown hair frames her face against a blurred green tennis court background. She holds a vintage wooden tennis racket resting near her left shoulder. On the right, an action shot captures her dynamic athletic poise mid-match on a lush grass court. Leaning forward into a powerful stroke, her focused expression contrasts with the fluid grace of her movement. She wears a classic sleeveless white Fila tennis uniform detailed with a thin red or navy trim along the neckline and a matching layered skort. The composition blends an intimate glimpse of her charismatic personality with her legendary on-court agility.
