Dinosaur experts, known as palaeontologists, have often found it very difficult to know whether a dinosaur is male or female, but that might change. RTÉ News' Northern Editor Vincent Kearney has the story.

Female dinosaurs can be identified by traumatic bone injuries in tailbones, according to research conducted at Queen's University in Belfast.

There's local news as Bird Flu hits Ireland. In the USA, New York has a new Mayor - Zohran Mamdani. And in out of this world news, Chinese astronauts had the first-ever space BBQ! It was all thanks to the space station Tiangong's new oven.
