You know NOTHING about rat whiskers! You have eyes & hands to explore, but rats have an army of sensors on their face. Whiskers are a rat's superpower. Here's how rats sense what you can't:

Sensors at the tips
Each whisker is like an antenna, picking up curves, pressure, and air changes. Rats sense a sly cat plotting an ambush before it pounces.

Hydraulic mechanics? You bet.
At the base of each whisker is a blood sinus. When a whisker moves, the fluid pressure instantly triggers brain activity. Genius, right?

Brain barrels
In the rat's brain cortex, there are "barrels," neural areas dedicated to each whisker.

Why is this cool?
Rats detect stimuli, assess textures, and identify objects without touching them. A quick whisker wave gives them all the info. Superfast: rats process signals in milliseconds. While you're thinking, "What's that?", they already know if it's edible.

Bonus: if scientists tickle the right "barrel" with electricity, they feel like their whisker touched something real. It's like telepathy for sensors.

Don't underestimate whiskers - they're mini-supercomputers!

In December 2021, Sebi officials had conducted a search and seizure operation at the premises of certain persons carrying out similar manipulative activities through Telegram channels. In a message on his Telegram channel recently recounting the episode, Durov wrote: "I lost my company and my home, but would do it again – without hesitation." Pavel Durov, Telegram's CEO, is known as "the Russian Mark Zuckerberg," for co-founding VKontakte, which is Russian for "in touch," a Facebook imitator that became the country's most popular social networking site. "Someone posing as a Ukrainian citizen just joins the chat and starts spreading misinformation, or gathers data, like the location of shelters," Tsekhanovska said, noting how false messages have urged Ukrainians to turn off their phones at a specific time of night, citing cybersafety. To that end, when files are actively downloading, a new icon now appears in the Search bar that users can tap to view and manage downloads, pause and resume all downloads or just individual items, and select one to increase its priority or view it in a chat.
