The Long-wattled Umbrellabird (Cephalopterus penduliger) are the weirdest birds, from pompadour/mohawk to long fleshy neck-tie shaped wattle that converts to a feather duster on command. Native to the Pacific coasts of Ecuador & Colombia, these extraordinary accessories are mostly found in males.

You're looking at an "Upside Down Jellyfish" (genus Cassiopea) & I think you can guess how they got their name. This is them most of the time: Not only tentacles up, but on the sea floor. But that's not the interesting thing. The interesting thing is they have no brain, but still can sleep.

Cameron Park Zoo in Waco TX has a new black-footed cat kitten (Felis nigripes). It's exploring grass for the 1st time here. This species is the smallest wild cat in Africa, but with the highest hunting success (~60%). They eat 1/6th their body weight in rodents & birds every night.

This is Karl the Fly River turtle (Carettochelys insculpta) at the San Antonio Zoo, enjoying his bubbler. Fly River turtles are also known as pig-nosed turtles, or 'Warrajan' in the Kundjeyhmi language of Northern Australia, where they are native. Let's talk about what makes Karl's species unique.

The filmmakers of 1958 Disney documentary "White Wilderness" imported lemmings to a location in Canada & forced them over a cliff, creating an enduring myth of lemmings driven to suicide. But the Norway lemming (Lemmus lemmus) has a new take on that myth: They go Viking BESERKER.

Any parent knows "It takes a whole village to raise a child" is true because kids have TERRIBLE survival instincts & are constantly at risk of death. Elephant calves doubly so. So elephants have adopted a practice called ALLOPARENTING or allomothering. The entire herd takes responsibility.

This viral video clip captured by Dean Boshoff of a desert rain frog (Breviceps macrops) highlights one aspect of their behavior: Their terrifying WAR CRY or alarm cry. (sound on) Let's learn a bit more about this African frog that lives along the sandy desert coast along Namibia & South Africa.

This surprising strategy could be a consequence of their incredible reproductive rate: A dozen offspring can be produced about every 16 days, females are fertile at 3 weeks old. Real-world tribbles! When colony sizes get large, the group will split & mass migrate, sometimes across bodies of water.

This bird probably speaks French. It has strong opinions about the work of Salvador Dalí. Let's meet the Inca tern (Larosterna inca), so-named because their native range matches the area of the Inca Empire. We're going to HAVE to talk about that mustache first... (📷: San Diego Zoo & Safari Park)

Here's a juvenile of the same species, showing their initial dark coloration. They're technically within the moray eel family (Muraenidae) & can be called 'leaf-nosed morays'. They're all born male. Hormonal switches cause gonads to develop to first male then female also change skin color.

People will pay $20 for apartment gossip because it feels easy. “Where can I live?” “What neighborhood?” “What’s rent?” “Where’s the food?” “Where’s the beach?” “What app do I use?” That feels fun. That feels close. That feels like movement. But the real question is not “where can I get an
