This is not to discredit the existence of some underlying tactical or strategic calculations, and it is absolutely not extending credit to the shockingly vile creatures doing it, but when you see a reactionary candidate being disgusting, it is safe to assume that they are doing it because they really believe in it.

It’s a crime scene with no victim, no suspect, and no witnesses. All you have is a single severed tail embedded in sticky tree resin. And your only piece of evidence is 99 million years old. That is the investigation Leonidas-Romanos Davranoglou, a zoologist at Tel Aviv University’s Steinhardt Museum of Natural History, and his team faced when they inspected the semitransparent sliver of fossilized resin, or amber. They had bought the amber from an online seller, thinking the 8-millimeter-long thing inside it was a twig or a piece of insect. Then, Ph.D. student Dolev Fabrikant inspected the fossil. “Oh, it has scales! This is a lizard tail,” he told Davranoglou. “I literally almost jumped off my chair,” Davranoglou recalls. “What has been sitting for … a few years now in a drawer actually resolves a very big enigma.” As the team reports this month in Palaeontologia Electronica, it is likely a lizard purposefully let go of the tail—creating the oldest known direct fossil evidence of this dramatic defensive tactic.

For eons, roly-polies have rightfully dominated the rolling space, at least in our imagination. The crustaceans' astonishing ability to transform from a legged arthropod into a perfect sphere, a behavior called volvation, earned the bugs their nickname. But the bugs are far from the only rollers in the animal kingdom. Pangolins, hedgehogs, echidnas, and armadillos do it too, curling up their bodies into defensive balls. So does the Venezuelan pebble toad, which tucks in its head and tumbles down slopes to escape tarantulas. The Mount Lyell salamander rolls too, coiling itself into a wheel and bouncing down steep rocks. None of these animals become quite as Platonic a sphere as the roly-poly, but they do well enough. But becoming a ball is not the only way to roll. The dwarf reed snake has found another way to roll away from danger, not by becoming a ball but by becoming something like a hoop. This peculiar motion, the mechanics of which are analyzed in a new paper in Current Biology, raises an important question: What is more sinister, a snake slithering in the grass or a snake rolling itself like a possessed wheel?
