Fox News: What causes nearly every alligator attack on humans? Study offers conclusive answer
A study from the University of Florida reveals that 96% of alligator bites are linked to human inattention or risk-taking behaviors. Researchers analyzed nearly 300 years of data and found that most bites occur during activities like swimming in alligator habitats.
The study emphasizes that many alligator interactions can be avoided through increased situational awareness and by minimizing risky behaviors. Experts suggest that the term "attack" may not be appropriate, as most incidents stem from human actions rather than random aggression from alligators.

Forbes: Axial Seamount: Why This Pacific Underwater Volcano Is Being Watched Closely By Scientists
The Axial Seamount, an underwater volcano off the Pacific Northwest coast, may be preparing to erupt for the first time since 2015, according to scientists. They have observed signs of magma buildup and increased seismic activity, suggesting an eruption could occur before 2025.
Despite its potential activity, experts assert that the eruption poses no danger to residents along the coast, as it is too deep and far from shore. The volcano's predictability makes it a valuable site for scientific study, offering insights into volcanic behavior and helping to forecast future eruptions.
