Hi everyone!

First off, Bunsen is doing much better after his porcupine encounter.  I can't say it was fun, he was in rough shape, but as of today he is totally back to his normal self.
In light of those events we are doing a FAQs about porcupines!  We got so many questions about them, I think we could also learn some interesting information!  Instead of Pet Science this week we are going to take a look at an adorable study on Otters in South America.
Our expert guest this week is Dr. Tanya Harrison.  It was amazing to chat with her about her work with NASA on the Spirit/Opportunity and Curiosity rovers.  She graciously gave us time and your mind will be blown by her information!  Woo or Wow is reversed this week...you'll have to listen to figure out what that means, and we get into the whole porcupine situation in the family section.
