This tiny tank is made of fiberglass on the bottom rising living algae, and fish in it too, very real – 5 danio rerio juveniles, whose size does not exceed 4 mm.

In September 2010, Nurminen Logistics firm has not quite the standard order for shipment. Required to carry four storage tanks for petroleum products and a harbor crane for the port. The route was not more than one kilometer toward the coast in Vihreyasaari near Oulu (Finlyadniya). Given the closure and the lack of barriers in the form of bridges and tunnels make transport feasible. Rarely come across on many oversized cargoes and objectives for their relocation, but if a client says “gone”, the key is to start.

Not only does E. chlorotica turn sunlight into energy — something only plants can do — it also appears to have swiped this ability from the algae it consumes.

Native to the salt marshes of New England and Canada, these sea slugs use contraband chlorophyll-producing genes and cell parts called chloroplasts from algae to carry out photosynthesis, says Sidney Pierce, a biologist at the University of South Florida in Tampa.

That genetic material has since been passed down to the next generation, eliminating the need to consume algae for energy.

However, the baby slugs can’t carry out photosynthesis until they’ve stolen their own chloroplasts, which they aren’t yet able to produce on their own, from their first and only meal of algae.

“We collect them and we keep them in aquaria for months,” Pierce told LiveScience. “As long as we shine a light on them for 12 hours a day, they can survive [without food].”

Pierce and his colleagues used a radioactive tracer to ensure that the slugs are now producing the chlorophyll themselves and not gathering it from algal contamination in the aquaria. Via : mmn and livescience .

The Korowai tribe which counts about 3000 people is one of the weirdest tribes in the world. They live in southeastern Papua/New Guinea and their culture still remains isolated from the modern civilization. As most of tribes, they have many weird customs and some of them consider cannibalism, too.

Like the fact that they are living in their own tribal way is not weird enough, they have something what makes them even more weird and unique. They have developed their own techniques of building tree houses on extremely tall trees.

Here you can see some of photos which are showing us how some of their homes are magnificent and some of photos are showing the process of constructing those buildings.

They started building this place 17 years ago. They have filled their backyard with plenty of rusty sculptures of dinosaurs and other dinosaur-like creatures. Today, their park contains more than 250 of different sculptures and they managed to make some business out of it. Their park is visited by more than 15,000 visitors every year.
