Giant Fossil Bats Out Of Africa, 35 Million Years Old:

When most of us think of Ancient Egypt, visions of pyramids and mummies fill our imaginations. For a team of paleontologists interested in fossil mammals, the Fayum district of Egypt summons an even older and equally impressive history that extends much further back in time than the Sphinx.

However, scientists at Georgetown University recently discovered that a moth can indeed remember what it learned as a caterpillar.
