We have some pretty intelligent species up here in Alaska. One of our local researchers, Dan Olsen, has spent a considerable amount of time studying these animals with a specialty on the Killer Whale. Dan joins us on today's episode to delve into the topic of animal intelligence in the Last Frontier. What does a killer whale call sound like? How do things like environment, social structure, and migration affect intelligence? And why do killer whales go to the spa?! It's the episode that'll make you smarter!
