Hey gang! Once again we are missing an aquariologist - but this time it's a different one! It's like a scavenger hunt for your hosts! But we substitute a guest this time, so the episode is a more normal length. Exciting! In this one we discuss the astonishing intelligence of ravens (and corvids in general), talk about some penguin action, and dive deep into the rambunctious, amazing raccoon life. Listen, rate, review, and above all enjoy!

This one is a weird one, gang. It's a shorty, and only includes two of the aquariologists! Who is missing, you ask? Listen and find out! In this episode, your extant hosts discuss the wonderful world of the letter Q. We talk about the happiest animal on the planet and their infectious smile, and we discuss the quick and quaint quail with all of it's strange habits.

Turns out Q is hard! This episode is more of a bonus, until we can return in full force with R! Rate, review, and enjoy!

In this one, we dive deep into P. The letter - get your minds out of that gutter! We talk about puffins, and their generally adorable babies. We discuss the incredibly strange platypus, and the various parts of various species that they have adapted in some spectacularly cool ways. And we top things off on a more serious note, when we talk about the tragic pangolin - the most poached animal on the planet - and what we can do to help them survive. Tune in for some laughs, some science, and some good old fashioned conservation biology.

Hey gang! This episode focuses on O animals - and we chose three species we all have personal hands on experience working with so it's a little more personal, and a little more sciencetastic! But not too far off the mark, because one of us also drops the term "bifurcated vagina", albeit in an entirely scientific biology of life kind of way. Such as only an aquariologist can manage!

Highlights include bifurcated genitalia, owls and their multiple eyelids, otter cuddles, the science of playing dead and one brief but very earnest plea for help for science centers, aquariums, and museums the world over. Listen, rate, review and share!

Sorry for the missed episode! World be crazy right now, yeah? We'll be back on a normal schedule as soon as possible though, we promise you that much. For now - N has arrived! We talk about electric rays, shelled cephalopods that wish they were snails, brieflty touch on the Cthulhu mythos because we are neeeerds and proud of it! Also there are some sea monkeys. We're a little subdued, a little scientific, and a lot of crazy.

Strap in, gang!

Fungi are not animals, this is true. But they are also not plants, and it gave one of us an excuse to make the most embarrassing pun of the episode title they could imagine! You'll learn who in the episode, we promise. 

In this episode we dive into some hardcore science, discussing the ins and outs of fungal species and what makes them unique and fascinating. We reveal a little bit more of our Nerd to the world, and happily embrace it.

Major points include bleeding fungi, ruining the mythos of Mario (and our childhoods as a result), and talking psychedelic properties. Strap in, this one gets all scientific.

Happy Fourth of July! In this episode, we take a deep dive into what it means to be an invasive species and how a lion can be a fish. We also discuss the camouflage mechanisms of a gecko with a very unique tail, and get in depth about how a bird can lie! Or Lye, in this case, as Molly educates us on the unique flavor of the incredible lyre bird and their disco song extravaganza. Listen, love it, come back for more.

Hey gang! In this episode, we have a special guest and we discuss our favorite K animals! We talk about the flightless, ankle biting kiwi bird, pontificate on the kinkajou and its incredible ability to revers its feet, and discuss the overall biomass of a swarm of billions of tons of krill and how it would feel to be crushed by crustaceans. Also, did you know that kudu have 6 foot long twisted horns that get stuck in trees? Learn more by listening to episode 12! As always, thank you so much for your incredible support, and please rate and review on iTunes if you have any interest in more fun adventures in animal care!

Happy Fathers Day everyone! This week we did things a little differently because we wanted to honor some of the best fathers in the animal kingdom on their special day. We included the top ten fathers, a few honorable mentions, and a special bonus of the WORST father in the animal kingdom. Because even a crappy animal dad deserves mention on this special day! Enjoy, and be sure to wish your own dad a happy Fathers Day!

Hello gang! In this one, we discuss jaguars and their stubby legs, talk about how jellies are brainless, bloodless, toothless, and still dangerous! And we also discuss the oddly spindly Japanese spider crab - an animal that haunts nightmares the world over and inspires alien robots!
