In this episode, we are going to learn about the animal kingdom’s strangest and grossest creatures! We’ll start with the housefly, discovering its unique habits like tasting with its feet and vomiting on its food, and move on to the resilient cockroach that can survive a week without its head. We’ll also learn about the hippopotamus’s unusual mating habits, the cube-shaped poop of wombats, and meet other creepy animals like tarantulas, giant squids, and vampire bats. Each creature may seem icky, but they all play important roles in nature, showcasing just how weird and wonderful the natural world truly is!
Sleep Tight!,
