What?!?!?!? A new Weekly Round Up? But we haven’t had one of these in weeks??? After dropping the ball for a few weeks, it’s back baby, in all its glory. I’ve scoured the internet and grabbed for you a group of environmental news stories that I think you’ll enjoy. I’m talking fish eyeball parasites, CRISPR-HIV research, and a pretty damn cool cuttlefish battle. So let’s dive in!
