Ricarda Wistuba ist Biologin und Tierpräparatorin am Zoologischen Forschungsmuseum Koenig in Bonn – und sie ist jemand, der sich nicht mit Theorie zufriedengibt. Ihre Forschung führt sie mitunter dorthin, wo die Natur noch weitgehend unerschlossen ist: in die Tiefen des Regenwalds, auf Baumwipfel-Plattformen, durch Sümpfe, Savannen und von Krisen gebeutelte Regionen. Immer auf der Suche nach neuen Erkenntnissen – und manchmal auch nach einem Ausweg.In dieser Folge berichtet sie von ihrem Einsatz in Sierra Leone, wo während einer Feldstudie zur Biodiversität plötzlich alles aus dem Ruder lief: Macheten, Misstrauen, kein Strom, kein Pass. Chaos. Und dann kommt auch noch Ebola. Und Ricarda ist mittendrin.Außerdem sprechen wir über:ihre Arbeit im Regenwalddach von Ghana, wo sie in einem außergewöhnlichen Forschungsprojekt auf Plattformen in den Baumkronen arbeitete,sowie über ihre Zeit im Pantanal, dem größten Binnenland-Feuchtgebiet der Erde in Brasilien, wo sie im Forschungsgebiet von Lydia Möcklinghoff unterwegs war – zwischen Tapiren, Capybaras, Jaguaren und natürlich Ameisenbären!Ein Gespräch über die Wirklichkeit wissenschaftlicher Feldforschung – voller Improvisation, Überraschungen und intensiver Naturerfahrungen.Link zu Ricardas Verein: https://sewingselfesteem.com/----------------------------------Redaktion & Postproduktion: Erik Lorenz----------------------------------Dieser Podcast wird auch durch unsere Hörerschaft ermöglicht.

Why do capybaras have such big teeth? Adrian had to know! To get to the bottom of this, we spoke to a biologist named Santiago Herrera Alvarez. Capybaras are Internet sensations, and Santiago can't get enough of them! Santiago's questions were even bigger than capybara teeth: how did capybaras, a relative of rodents like mice and rats, get to be so enormous? Tune in for a capybara rodeo, and stick around to find out how one little animal can grow to superstardom. Want to learn more?

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports on the holiday season of capybaras.

Help! Capybara catastrophe!  

Thanks to Mary, Mila, and Riley for their suggestions this week! Further reading: Comfortable and dermatological effects of hot spring bathing provide demonstrative insight into improvement in the rough skin of Capybaras Comfort of capybaras determined by SCIENCE: An especially attractive guinea pig: Guinea pigs come in lots of colors, patterns, and fur types [picture taken from this excellent site]: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. This week we're going to learn about two rodents, one small and one big. Thanks to Mary and Mila who both suggested the guinea pig, and thanks to Riley who suggested the capybara. This episode is a bit unusual because part of it comes from a Patreon episode from 2023. Like, literally a big chunk of this episode is the original audio from that one, and you'll be able to tell the difference in audio and know just how lazy I was this week. The episode actually came together in an unusual way too. Riley's parent emailed me last week with some new suggestions, including capybaras, but wasn't sure if we had already covered the topic. I thought we had, but of course there's always more to learn about an animal. Well, since this is the beginning of a new month I was on the Patreon page to upload the December episode, and while I was there I did a quick search for capybaras and discovered the episode I was thinking of. I decided to add some more information about guinea pigs to it since I already mention guinea pigs a lot in that episode, and here is the result! The capybara is a rodent, and a very big one. It is, in fact, the biggest rodent alive today. To figure out just how big the capybara is, picture a guinea pig. The guinea pig is also a rodent, native to the Andes Mountains in South America. No one's sure why the guinea pig is called that in English, since it doesn't come from Guinea and doesn't have anything to do with anything else called guinea, but as someone who had two pet guinea pigs when I was a kid, I know exactly why they're called guinea pigs. This is what an actual pig sounds like: [pig squealing] And this is what a guinea pig sounds like: [guinea pig squealing] Also, it's sort of shaped like a pig. The guinea pig is a chonky little animal with short legs, only a little stub of a tail, and little round ears. Its face is sort of blocky in shape and it has a big rounded rump, similar to that of a capybara. The guinea pig is actually closely related to the capybara, and is a pretty good-sized rodent in its own right. It grows about 10 inches long, or 25 cm, on average, and roughly half that size tall. The guinea pig has been domesticated for at least 7000 years, but it wasn't domesticated for people to keep it as a pet. In South America and many other places now, it's a very small farm animal raised for its meat. Guinea pig has been an important source of protein for all that time, so important that it was considered sacred in many cultures. In the early 16th century when Europeans started arriving in South America, sailors took guinea pigs with them on ships so they'd have fresh meat on the voyage. But when the cute little animals arrived in Europe, people started buying them as pets. Guinea pigs eat plants, mostly grass, and are social animals. If you want a pet guinea pig, make sure to get at least two. Like rabbits and some other animals, including the capybara, the guinea pig excretes special pellets that aren't poop, but are semi-digested pellets of food. The guinea pig eats the pellets so they can pass through the digestive system again and the body can extract as many nutrients as possible from it. What's left is then excreted as a regular poop pellet. Even in places where the guinea pig is routinely kept as livestock and eaten, people breed guinea pigs as pets too. The pet variety is smaller than the meat variety and has different markings and different colors.

As the dust settled, the crowd's roar continued to echo through the arena. Yet, amid the cheers, The Swordsman Hero, The Woman, and The Jester remained calm, their victory feeling almost inevitable. For them, this was just another battle in a long line of skirmishes they had faced together. The Swordsman Hero wiped the blood from his blades with a casual flick, then sheathed them without a word. His eyes swept over the arena, checking to see if any other combatants would dare stand in their way. He saw only defeated opponents. He nodded once to The Woman and The Jester, a quiet acknowledgment of their teamwork. The Woman bent to retrieve an arrow that had landed in the dirt. She inspected it briefly, ensuring it was still usable, then tucked it back into her quiver. Her expression remained calm and composed as she moved with practiced ease. It was as though she had just completed another day's work, rather than helping take down a giant foe in front of thousands of spectators.   Thanks to Pamela for a captivating conversation!

Der Weg zur Weltherrschaft ist weit und steinig, aber wenn er einfach wäre, könnte ja jeder Weltherrscher werden. Heute haben wir eine besondere Ankündigung für existierende und potenzielle Capybaras (also 10€-Backer) im Gepäck: Ab sofort gibt‘s nämlich eine monatliche Filmbesprechung zusätzlich. Zur Feier des Tages sogar gleich zwei. Zeitgleich zu diesem Podcast geht kostenlos für alle Andrés und Jochens Besprechung von Stephen Kings „Es (Kapitel 1)“ live, die Besprechung zum überhaupt nicht katastrophalen Kapitel 2 ist wiederum exklusives Capybara-Futter. Aber auch überzeugte Nicht-Capybaras bleiben innig geliebte Menschen. Unter anderem arbeiten wir an der besseren Auffindbarkeit von Inhalten unseres inzwischen über 2.000 Podcasts großen Archivs und liebäugeln mit dem Gedanken, eine weitere Vollzeitstelle zu schaffen. Alles dazu hört ihr in dieser Weltherrschaftsfolge. Wollen Sie mehr wissen? Timecodes: 00:04:16 - Neue Podcasts für 10$-Backer und Überlegung einer Teamvergrößerung 00:33:11 - Hausmeistereien 00:44:58 - Ein neues Tagebuchformat 00:47:09 - Alles über Initiativbewerbungen

Surprise! Für 10-Dollar-Backer gibt es in Zukunft mindestens einen zusätzlichen Filmpodcast pro Monat. Und wir starten mit dem nach Kino-Einspielergebnis erfolgreichsten Horrorfilm aller Zeiten, der Neuverfilmung von Stephen Kings "Es" aus dem Jahre 2017. Andre und Jochen sprechen ausführlichst über den Film, den Roman und alles dazwischen! Für Capybaras gibt es die Filmbesprechung zur Fortsetzung aus 2019 übrigens direkt heute, am gleichen Tag! Wer noch nicht Team Capybara ist: Ihr könnt bei Steady und Patreon jederzeit einfach in ein höheres Unterstützer-Level wechseln. Damit lasst ihr nicht nur all unsere Wunschträume wahr werden, sondern helft uns auch den Basispreis von 5 Euro stabil zu halten! Wäre doch cool! Und so nett! Und ihr seid doch nett, hmm? HMMMMMMM?

Every year dozens of ridiculous identical made-for-TV holiday movies are forced upon the people. And every year we try to fix these movies by making them weirder. We've selected a few of this year's new releases (from the usual suspects like Hallmark and Lifetime), most of which star Lacey Chabert as a big city lawyer who finds true love after returning to her quaint home town to save her great-aunt's figgy pudding farm. And we're punching up their plots by randomly inserting new elements like Martians, misfit toys, and basketball-playing robots. Don't settle for the same old TV holiday fare. The Flopcast is here to save Christmas. You're welcome. The Flopcast website! The ESO Network! The Flopcast on Facebook! The Flopcast on Instagram! The Flopcast on Mastadon!
