Entomologist/Arachnologist here. I LOVE this series. Thor Hanson is just great in spreading out the knowledge to all these questions. And I can so deeply relate to the enthusiasm which with he does so. Just contagious. And EXACTLY what you need to reach people and make them curious. According to my collegues, I am very much alike when it comes to all my beloved bugs (and beyond. Impossible to restrict my awe for nature to these only when all shapes of life and there interactions out there are just amazingly fascinating...) I can only hope he continues this and keeps reaching and fascinating lots of people. Note aside, about "weird" animals, a very extreme environment would be the body's of other living beings. Meaning, I suggest go have a look at parasites and parasitoids. Somewhat gruesome (in human eyes), amazing bodily adaptions and extremely interesting as well...

I assume you're talking about grade school. In the US, at least, not all grade school teachers need a degree in a science to teach it. It's a bad experience for everyone involved. And anyone who acquires degree(s) in science are highly interested in it and want to actually do science or teach higher level education not teach basic science to grade school students. There's also no monetary incentive for it. Anyone with a higher degree in science has debts that a grade school science teachers salary isn't going to pay off.

I worked with a couple wildlife biologist in the past and they said that part of the problem was that they were taking all the baby birds to tag them at the same time and the parents would come see the chicks were gone and leave. They found that because birds really can’t count as long as you left one in the nest the papa and mama birds won’t abandon the nest and you eventually tag all the checks and move on.

Wow, this has got to be my favorite guest on this series yet. Wired has a way of picking presenters who are very passionate about their field, and this guy is one of the most clearly enthusiastic. I wish my science teachers in school were like him.

Bro the part where he talks about birds being so loyal to their offspring hit so deep I started tearing up. It’s nice to be randomly triggered in a cathartic way like that. Thanks, Thor ⚡️

The driver is the traffic until he’s in the ditch, as the song goes. Speaking as someone who spent a bit of time in the ditch, I can’t really enjoy poorly regulated capitalism. Phones are lovely pocket computers, but I’d rather have decent social safety nets and more regulated/ethical phone production.
