Monkeydactyl may be the oldest known creatures with opposite thumbs

 The Monkeydactyl is a very interesting topic. As we know, a monkey is a modern day creature that we usually think of a brown, and can climb in trees. The Monkeydactyl is similar to the monkey, in the fact that it could probably climb trees, in order to get the insects and food they needed to survive. Monkeydactyl's fossil remains, unearthed, in China. This animal discovery may help scientists find out more about our past, so we can learn from it and make adjustments to what we may need in the future. Do you think learning about the past is essential in order for scientists to make changes to help us prepare for the future?

    It's crazy how there are so many species of animals that lived many many years ago that we are still discovering today. To answer the question, yes, I do believe that it is essential to learn about our past so we can prepare for the future. Also, I googled to monkeydacyl and it's lowkey kind of scary looking.

    I never would have thought that there was an extinct creature that was this similar to a monkey, but could fly too. I also think that it is essential because it helps scientists to believe that there might be even more creatures like this that they still have not found.

Current event

I am just doing a trial current event-  Are you supposed to put the link to your article in the summary?  Do you know how to do that?  My current event is an article from the magazine The Week.  It is titled   It's not just the germs — it's also the genes  The article discusses how a person's genes play a part in how viruses react within that body.  It talks about how some people may get a virus more seriously than another & how scientists can look at that information and develop therapies from.  Just so you know The Week pulls articles from other sources-  I did backtrack to check the source they got the original article from & it checks out.

Over 87,000 papers published on coronavirus since start of pandemic

 Over 87,000 papers have been published about this global pandemic. When most people think of the pandemic going around right now, they think about how awful it all is. How many people have died, how many people have lost a family member, or how many people they have lost relationships with friends or family.

We never know what type of science we will come across in the future, but we can say that science evolves every day, and things are constantly changing.
