Quick! Think of a ‘dinosaur movie'. Chances are Jurassic Park (1993) was first to mind.   Steven Spielberg's genetic nightmare/theme park gone wrong classic is so iconic that it inspired a generation of kids to study palaeontology, and reinvented our modern popular idea of dinosaurs. But does that idea still stack up?   Could you really clone a triceratops from DNA found in an ancient mozzie?  Did dilophosaurus really look like a frill-necked lizard?  And aren't dinosaurs supposed to be feathery?   Ann Jones cracks into how Jurassic Park did (and didn't) lie to us. Featuring: Dr Travis Holland, Senior Lecturer in Communication at Charles Sturt University, host Fossils and Fiction Podcast Tim Richards, palaeontologist and PhD candidate in the ‘Dino Lab' at the University of Queensland, presenter of Dino Dome [link] on ABC Kids Listen Associate Professor Cameron Webb, Mosquito Expert, NSW Health Pathology & University of Sydney This episode of What the Duck?! was produced on the lands of the Wadawarrung, Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Kaurna people.If you want to hear more "What the Duck?" episodes- please like and subscribe here.

They explore the science behind flies and food safety, discussing how flies can spread bacteria and disease. The conversation shifts to outdoor gatherings and the importance of keeping food safe from pests. They also share personal experiences with mosquitoes and other insects, culminating in a light-hearted Halloween segment filled with riddles and reflections on their pet peeves regarding outdoor events.Linkshttps://www.breakfromthegrind.com/Visit our Stores: https://www.redbubble.com/people/bftg/shophttps://www.teepublic.com/stores/lowtreestudiosVideo https://rumble.com/c/c-6686850https://www.youtube.com/@breakfromthegrindhttps://www.youtube.com/@BFTG-Inspiration DetailsThe Gross Reason You Might Not Want to Eat Food If a Fly Lands on ItNobody likes flies buzzing around and landing on food. It's disgusting, for sure, but is it harmful? A study on what happens when a fly lands on your food found it's more than gross: It's germy.Jason, how do you feel about fly's landing on your food? Does it bother you and to what extent do you think about it.If fly's land on your food do you continue to eat it or do you throw it away?Have you ever been to a party outside and people leave their food exposed to the elements? If you see fly's land on the food do you still eat it or do you move onto another dish?What happens when a fly lands on your food?We did a short not too long ago about stinging fly's and we discovered what actually happens when a fly lands on your food. So when a fly lands on your food, it vomits.“When a fly eats, it has to throw up digestive enzymes onto the meal. “These enzymes also contain some remnants of whatever it last ate, and that might have been a meal full of pathogens. Flies eat some pretty disgusting things.”But let's back up: Before the fly vomits, it “uses its antennae to sample your food with taste sensors on its feet,”. If it likes what it tastes, it sticks down its tongue and coats your food with saliva containing digestive enzymes (a form of puke).Are you grossed out yet? This detail may do it: “The fly also poops on your food. Some good news on the No. 2 front: “It's such small amounts.What kinds of diseases can flies spread?Here's something else that can happen when a fly lands on your food: It can spread salmonella, E. coli, parasites and dysentery. A 2023 study published in the journal Microorganisms found flies can pass along bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant strains. “House flies serve as a vector to move disease from one place to another,”. “Because we live together, they can spread many different pathogens between humans, animals and the environment.”On the upside, a fly can share only a tiny number of germs. And fortunately, when it comes to food poisoning, the dose makes the poison, as the old saying goes.So when should you worry and throw out your food?If you let the food sit out at room temperature for a long time, those bacteria can multiply to the point where they become dangerous.What happens

Mark is back at the Scottish Wildlife Trust's Montrose Basin site, but this time it isn't geese he's looking for, it's mosquitos. Mark hears about the monitoring programme that the Basin is part of and why it's important to track mosquitos for human health and also bird health.Back in 2021 Storm Arwen wreaked havoc on the North East causing lots of damage including to some of the buildings at the Museum of Scottish Lighthouses in Fraserburgh. Recently Rachel went for a visit to see how the repair work was progressing.The archipelago of St Kilda, the most westerly islands of the UK, is a wild place with a fascinating history. It was inhabited until 1930 by very hardy folks, many of whom were adept at climbing the cliffs and sea stacks to hunt for birds and their eggs. St Kilda's climbing history is now being explored in a new film by professional climber and filmmaker Robbie Phillips. Helen Needham met up with Robbie to hear about how the film came about.Earlier in the week, it was announced that Jim McColl had died at the age of 89. Jim was one of the presenters of BBC Scotland's Beechgrove Garden from its outset until his retirement from the programme in 2019.

Mark recently went along to hear some of the ghostly tales and see if he could spot any spooky goings on…In this week's Scotland Outdoors podcast Mark chats to Dr Roisin Campbell-Palmer, Head of Restoration at the Beaver Trust.

Several states have reported cases of the rare but serious mosquito-borne illness eastern equine encephalitis. And, the new sci-fi movie "Slingshot," about an astronaut's mental breakdown, prompts questions about how to prepare humans for long-term space travel.Mosquito-Borne Diseases Are Spreading As Temperatures RiseThis week, a New Hampshire man died of eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), a rare but extremely serious disease caused by a mosquito-borne virus. Human cases of EEE have also been reported in Wisconsin, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Vermont, causing some municipalities to step up mosquito control efforts or attempt to limit outdoor activities during peak mosquito times at dawn and dusk.Other mosquito-borne diseases are on the rise as well. Oropouche fever, a viral disease typically found in South America, has been spotted in the US—and in Brazil, health officials are reporting an 800% increase in the disease. Dengue fever, also spread by mosquitoes, has been increasing across Europe. Experts attribute all the surges to climate change, which has brought warmer, wetter weather that has allowed mosquito populations to thrive and expand their ranges.Sophie Bushwick of New Scientist joins guest host Rachel Feltman to talk about climate, mosquitoes, and disease, and how communities are trying to curb the spread. They also tackle other stories from the week in science, including a puzzling result in a dark matter search, how fruit flies change their threat perception during courtship, and investigations into how marmoset monkeys call each other by name.‘Slingshot' Imagines A Yearslong Space Mission Gone WrongThe new movie “Slingshot,” a sci-fi thriller about a yearslong mission to Saturn's moon Titan, is out in theaters today. It follows the crew members, played by Casey Affleck, Laurence Fishburne, and Tomer Capone, as they start to unravel, highlighting how long, lonely missions can put astronauts' well-being in peril.While the movie is certainly a work of science fiction, it does remind us that a lot can go wrong in space, both physically and mentally. So as humans get closer to embarking on long missions to places like Mars and beyond, how are real space agencies thinking about keeping them happy and safe?Science Friday's digital producer of engagement Emma Gometz sat down with “Slingshot” director Mikael Håfström, and former NASA organizational psychologist Dr. Kelley Slack, to answer those questions and more.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

They're gorgeous. They're picky moms, and tremendous flirts. They are sparkly. And they drink blood. We hopped on the line with mosquito researcher, medical entomologist, CDC Epidemic Intelligence Service officers, and Culicidologist, Dr. Fhallon Ware-Gilmore to chat about mozzies. Why do skeeters bite you, specifically? Which ones should we watch out for? Why do they make high-pitched sounds? WHAT DO THEIR HELL MOUTHS LOOK LIKE? And how can I learn to love them? But also, how can I keep them away from me? Scream in your date's face and drink blood, if you're a mosquito, because things are about to heat up.
