Meanwhile, Steller’s jays:
Although the ones near my house can imitate a red-tailed hawk call pretty well when they want to scare the other birds from the feeder so it can have it to itself, but that’s the only thing I’ve heard them do besides their ordinary calls.
If you had access to a large genetic database, it would theoretically be possible to find living relatives, provided at least one (even quite distant) relative is included in that database. It may be possible to then retrace familial history to determine who specifically it may have been.
That’s more or less how they managed to find the Golden State Killer. Someone noticed that the GSK’s DNA had distantly related DNA listed in GEDmatch’s private database and family trees were constructed to narrow down suspects until only one remained based on timing, location, and other details. The person listed in the database and the GSK were so distantly related that they only shared a great-great-great-great grandfather.
Just yesterday I was searching for photos in Brave. Right from the outset without clicking on anything, there was a huge, unclosable banner taking up a third of the screen that was an ad for Etsy or something. I tried to go to settings to change it to how it was before, but I was confronted with another ad in the settings:

Time to finally make that switch to Firefox, I guess.
It’s really not as big of a deal as it seems, especially with swift medical care, which it sounds like they got. Even the US has several cases of bubonic plague every year basically without fail.
Exact same plot in an episode of Suite Life of Zach and Cody, too, complete with birth certificate footprints to confirm their identities. Although, the episode ends with the mom simply recalling off the top of her head which one belonged to who instead of making any direct comparisons, which always bothered me in an episode about the mom having confused the two in the first place.
“That’s what I said, ‘booty twaps’!”
There were still some mammoths hanging around Siberia in 3000 BCE when the Pyramids were being built, long after agriculture was already becoming very prevalent in many cultures.
Didn’t Netanyahu say just the other day that there’d be no ceasefire until his war goals in Palestine had been achieved?
