<h2 id="content-id-1731231816441-5"><strong>Commercial whaling, climate change are inhibiting evolutionary change in Arctic whales</strong></h2>

<p>Bowhead whales hold the distinction of being the longest-lived mammals on the planet, with some individuals reaching ages of several centuries. Additionally, Inuit hunters have reported sightings of these whales successfully breaking through ice that exceeds half a meter in thickness—ice robust enough to bear the weight of a fully-loaded semi-truck. The habitats of narwhals coincide with those of bowhead whales in the Arctic region. The unique tusk of the narwhal has played a significant role in northern European mythology, contributing to the legend of the unicorn.</p>

<h2 id="content-id-1731231816441-8"><strong>Obesity can raise 20% lifetime risk of pancreatic cancer</strong></h2>

<p>A recent study has revealed that, despite the increasing incidence of pancreatic cancer among individuals under the age of 50, a significant portion of the population remains unaware that obesity can elevate the lifetime risk of developing this type of cancer by 20 percent. Conducted by researchers at the Wexner Medical Center of Ohio State University, the study indicates that many individuals still hold the misconception that pancreatic diseases predominantly affect older adults and believe there is little they can do to mitigate their risk. Nevertheless, pancreatic cancer rates have been climbing at an approximate rate of 1 percent per year, with a notable rise in cases among individuals in their 40s.</p>
