In this special on-site episode recorded up near the Iron Range National Park, we discuss a unique relative of possums that were lucky enough to see several times on our trip!

This week we had to steal a bit of time to record while driving down to Coffs Harbour in New South Wales. Our animal of the week was our main target — a unique lizard that neither of us had seen before. We found some the very evening after this episode was recorded (see the thumbnail)!

This week we discuss a very imposing bird. Despite sometimes being referred to as a 'shoebill stork', this ambush predator is actually more related to pelicans.

This week we discuss a bright orange toxic gummy lizard — we do not advise consumption of this salamander.

This week we have a slightly uncomfortable chat about a health-relevant parasite that we both have some experience with.

This week, we chat about the heaviest bony fish in the world (and its relatives). They don't quite match their historical "slow & lazy" reputation!

This week we discuss a superhero! Wait, no — it's an animal after all. Built like a tank and with a reputation that preceeds it, are Wolverines really just the simple, agressive animals they're made out to be?

This week, we chat about one of the most widely studied animals on the planet — and it all started with... a pregnancy test?

This week we discuss Dom's favorite animal! From a surprising evolutionary history to fascinating personal experiences, this is certainly an episode not to miss.

This week we discuss an Amazonian butterfly — but you'd be forgiven for thinking it was more than one.
