This week, we reported on the difficulty humans experience trying to read their dogs’ emotions. Researchers reported that male blue-lined octopuses paralyze females before mating with them to avoid being eaten. And physicists demonstrated quantum advantage with a simple cooperation game. Additionally, galaxies prefer to spin clockwise, apparently; researchers found the oldest face bones of an early human; and a play intervention reduces stress markers in both humans and dogs.
