Yay! Whales (and their stomachs) rejoice!
Scientists at the University of British Columbia have discovered a new concoction from fir trees and yeast that may replace ambergris in expensive perfumes.
In layman's terms, whale upchuck might disappear in your favorite scents!
Ha! He does NOT want to put down that stick!
Did we say stick? We meant BRANCH!
What a cute doggy… why do they always go for the biggest trophy?
Check out the above video to see if he ever makes it past those trees.
Dayle Bennett works for the U.S. Forest Service.
A big problem is an explosion in the population of beetles and their destructive effects on trees.
The beetles crawl onto trees, tear up the bark and go to town.
But this is bad for the trees, especially when the beetles are in such large numbers.
The beetles communicate by marking trees with pheromones (smells basically) that tell other beetles to chow down or stay away.
So Mr.Bennett figured out that by using the "stay away" smell the beetles would literally stay away, leaving the trees alone.
Score one for science!

No, someone didn’t learn a spell from a Harry Potter book that can preserve ancient forests.
(Though we wish they did.)
The Harry Potter series of books totals 4,195 pages and million and million of copies of the book were sold, JK Rowling knew that that could seriously impact the environment.
In Canada, ancient forests with 800-year-old trees were being cut down to supply paper for books.
So she pushed the supply chain to protect ancient forests from loggers, and so over 700 of the largest paper purchasers in the world vowed to protect ancient forests and certify where they got their wood pulp.

Looks like Amanda Bynes is NOT done telling it how she sees it on Twitter!
And this time, she's making some pretty SERIOUS allegations against the officers involved in her Thursday night arrest for drug possession, reckless endangerment, and tampering with evidence!
The troubled starlet took to her social networking page this afternoon to continue denying her legal drama this week, which involved her allegedly smoking pot in her apartment building's lobby and then throwing her bong out the window when police began searching her place, and now, she's asserted that one of the officers at the scene sexually harassed her by "slapping" her VAGINA!
