Parasitic Wasps Found Inside 30 Million-Year-Old Flies | SciShow News

The video discusses two scientific studies. The first study reveals the discovery of ancient parasitic wasps inside fossilized fly pupae using advanced X-ray scanning technology. These findings provide insights into wasp evolution and ecology, identifying new species and genera. The second study explores how naked mole rats' parenting behaviors are influenced by consuming feces containing estradiol from the queen. This hormone, linked to parenting in other mammals, is ingested by subordinates, enhancing their responsiveness to pups. The research highlights unique social behaviors in eusocial species and the role of hormones in influencing them.
