I am not 100% if this "learn something new" feature in Google Search is actually new but I have never reported on it before. Google Search shows a box named "learn something new" that takes you into a web story format in Google Search on mobile.
This was spotted by Grant Oster on Twitter who noticed this for a search on [crocodiles], which I can replicate myself. Here is a screenshot:
Grant shared this video cast of this in action:

So is this new? Did you learn anything new here?
Forum discussion at Twitter.
Update: This is old, as I kind of thought...
