Bird gut flora study

Postby Pajarita » Tue Jan 07, 2020 9:59 am

Actually, the study is on mammals and birds so as to compare the bacteria found in their intestines and what they found is super interesting: bats and birds have more in common than bats have to other mammals - why? Because they fly! As usual, I would have liked more in depth research on birds but this is a good start.
