Research shows that dolphins and orcas have crossed a point of no return in their evolution, making it biologically impossible for them to return to land due to their highly specialized marine adaptations, which are now irreversible. This extreme specialization, while beneficial for ocean life, also makes them vulnerable to environmental changes such as climate change and pollution.
Two construction workers have been arrested for allegedly using an excavator to tear a hole in the Great Wall of China, causing "irreversible" damage to a section dating back to the Ming Dynasty.
