Stress has an odour and dogs can smell it - new paper out! In each test session, dogs were given one person’s relaxed and stressed samples, taken only four minutes apart. In 94% of 720 trials, the dogs were able to correctly alert us to the stress sample. https://t.co/a048Gx3lkQ

Does your dog love you more than a piece of sausage? After 5 hrs alone with no food, we gave 10 dogs a choice between owner and food: 8 chose their owners. Of 6 hand-reared wolves, only 1 chose its special person. What does your dog choose? https://t.co/28Wnf5tTJu

Why yes I *do* plan to use my Wordle statistics in data analysis today. Do you want to know my mean, median, or mode?
Any how much will I age myself with this example??
