Did Two ���Human Species��� Leave Footprints in Kenya?

Well, here is what that scientists found:

A fossil trackway containing 12 prints, each measuring about 10.25 inches longThree footprints, measuring from 8 to 9.25 inches longOther footprints from a variety of animals

Those are the facts. Then comes the i...

Exhibit Highlight: How Many Animals Went on the Ark?

How many animals did Noah need to take with him on the ark?

Today for my blog post, I want to highlight one of the fascinating exhibits at the Ark that helps dispel a myth many people believe about Noah���s ark���that since there are millions of species on earth today, Noah needed to take two of each of the millions of species on the ark with him. And because they think there���s no way Noah could have fit that many animals on the ark, they conclude that the ���story��� of Noah and the ark is ju...

This is one of our most popular shows, featuring Kashtan at her family���s zoo, Creation Kingdom Zoo, in Gate City, Virginia.

Wolves Observed Feeding on . . . Nectar?

Well, here���s a headline you might be surprised to see: ���Sweet Tooth���Ethiopian Wolves Seen Feeding on Nectar.��� That���s right, the Ethiopian wolf has been newly documented with a surprising behavior: feeding on nectar. Multiple wolves from multiple packs were observed burying their noses in red hot poker flowers for a swallow of the sweet, sugary liquid that we normally think of as only attracting insects or hummingbirds.

These wolves, native to the Ethiopian highlands, are the world���s ...
