New research published in Science reveals that pigeons can sense Earth’s magnetic field using specialized cells in their inner ear—a completely different mechanism than scientists expected.

These cells may generate signals through electromagnetic induction, giving pigeons a “built-in compass” that works even in the dark. It’s a breakthrough that could reshape how we understand navigation in animals and may even inspire future technologies.
