  • The Imposter Minute #03
    The Imposter minute is a short clip, about any topic, that comes out spontaneously. This week, however, our Imposter Minute is not so spontaneous as it fits in nicely with our series on animal mating. We discuss a few mating behaviors observed throughout the animal kingdom. Full disclosure this Imposter Minute relies heavily on click-bait article sources, as opposed to our usual empirical, peer-reviewed sources.
