@wsucahnrs.bsky.social's Rich Zack really helped me grab onto this answer 💚 #GoCougs #STEMeducation @pullman.wsu.edu askdruniverse.wsu.edu/2026/10/08/w...
What caused praying mantises to evolve with 2 front claw-like arms?
Some ancient insects began to grab prey. Individuals with bigger, stronger legs might have had an easier time.

So many thanks to @murrowcollege.bsky.social's Wei Peng for chauffeur-ring me through this high tech question 🚘 #GoCougs #STEMEducation @pullman.wsu.edu askdruniverse.wsu.edu/2026/08/06/s...
Are self-driving cars safe?
Peng told me that self-driving cars are getting safer. Some studies show that certain driverless cars have fewer crashes than cars driven by people in similar places.
