Renowned for their noiseless dive, the kingfisher’s iconic beak-shape has inspired the design of high speed bullet trains. Now scientists have tested beak-shape among some of the birds’ 114 species found world-wide, to assess which shape is the most hydrodynamic.
Plesiosaurs are an extinct group of marine reptiles from the age of dinosaurs who are famous for their long necks.
