This week on The Creep Dive, the gals dive headfirst into a toe-curling tale of body parts for sale, internet feuds between right-wing queens Jessica Reed Kraus and Candace Owens, and the inspiring, suspiciously spry story of Fauja Singh — the man allegedly running marathons well past 100. We also ponder: is Denise Welch missing in a hot air balloon over France? (No.) From wet specimens to walkers, it's a glorious mess, as always.
S10E295: We're all Wet Specimens *Available on your favorite streaming service* In this week's episode, the Grims kick things off by discussing a new Texas law that aims to limit the sale of sex toys in pharmacies, igniting a debate on personal freedom and regulation. The conversation takes an unexpected turn as they explore a fascinating study where scientists teach capuchin monkeys to use currency, leading to some surprising behaviors, including prostitution. The show then shifts gears to highlight a significant medical advancement: the development of a bionic eye designed to restore vision for those suffering from retinal diseases. The discussion quickly pivots to the challenges within the U.S. healthcare system, including alarming reports of a woman running a dentist practice out of her kitchen. Finally, they venture into the realm of virtual reality, showcasing groundbreaking technology that allows users to experience taste sensations in a digital environment.

Looking to beat the summer heat? Cool off with this iced dino that maybe shouldn't exist! That's right, we Jurassic Park'd Amaura so we could read all of its Pokedex entries. Non-Amaura topics include: Ice Age, The Land Before Time, product placement, and more! Follow along with the entries below: X: This ancient Pokémon was restored from part of its body that had been frozen in ice for over 100 million years. Y: This calm Pokémon lived in a cold land where there were no violent predators like Tyrantrum. Ultra Sun: It lived in cold areas in ancient times. It's said that when Amaura whinnies, auroras appear in the night sky. Ultra Moon: Amaura was restored successfully, but it's not expected to live long because of the heat of the current environment. Sword: This Pokémon was successfully restored from a fossil. In the past, it lived with others of its kind in cold lands where there were fewer predators. Shield: Amaura is an ancient Pokémon that has gone extinct. Specimens of this species can sometimes be found frozen in ice. BTB: It's magical aurora-summoning whinnie is very cool, but maybe not worth condemnig this extinct pokemon to die again soon, alone.

Glow-in-the-dark fungi, parasitic orchids, slime moulds that hunt the forest floor for prey - it's a lost world hiding in plain sight. According to ecologist Robert Vennell our forests are overflowing with peculiar organisms. Specimens responsible responsible for providing us with fire, food, and medicine - they have had an outsized impact on human history and lives, yet remain, largely, in obscurity. In his latest book, The Forgotten Forest, Robert takes the reader on a bushwalk unlike any other, shining a light on the dark corners of the New Zealand bush. Robert Vennell is a curator in the Natural Science department at Auckland Museum and best-selling author of The Meaning of Trees and the Secrets of the Sea.

The black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) is a species of highly venomous snake belonging to the family Elapidae. It is native to parts of sub-Saharan Africa. First formally described by Albert Günther in 1864, it is the second-longest venomous snake after the king cobra; mature specimens generally exceed 2 m (6 ft 7 in) and commonly grow to 3 m (9.8 ft). Specimens of 4.3 to 4.5 m (14 to 15 ft) have been reported. Its skin colour varies from grey to dark brown. Juvenile black mambas tend to be paler than adults and darken with age.The species is both terrestrial (ground-living) and arboreal (tree-living); it inhabits savannah, woodland, rocky slopes and in some regions, dense forest. It is diurnal and is known to prey on birds and small mammals. Over suitable surfaces, it can move at speeds up to 16 km/h (10 mph) for short distances. Adult black mambas have few natural predators.In a threat display, the black mamba usually opens its inky-black mouth, spreads its narrow neck-flap and sometimes hisses. It is capable of striking at considerable range and may deliver a series of bites in rapid succession. Its venom is primarily composed of neurotoxins that often induce symptoms within ten minutes, and is frequently fatal unless antivenom is administered. Despite its reputation as a formidable and highly aggressive species, the black mamba attacks humans only if it is threatened or cornered. It is rated as least concern on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN)'s Red List of Threatened Species.
Summary: Where do coelacanths live? Join Kiersten as she talks about the habitat of the coelacanth. For my hearing impaired listeners, a complete transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean. Show Notes: A Fish Caught in Time: The Search for the Coelacanth by Samantha Weinberg “Madagascar may be a secret stronghold for ‘living fossil' fish” by Stephanie Pappas, www.livescience.com African Coelacanth, NOAA Fisheries, www.fisheries.noaa.gov Coelacanth, Smithsonian, https://ocean.si.edu/ocean-life/fish/coelacanth Music written and performed by Katherine Camp Transcript (Piano music plays) Kiersten - This is Ten Things I Like About…a ten minute, ten episode podcast about unknown or misunderstood wildlife. (Piano music stops) Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating. This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. This episode continues the coelacanth and their habitat is the third thing I like about this amazing animal. We are still learning more and more about the coelacanth everyday. And one of the things we're still learning about is their habitat. Where exactly do these behemoths live? The information I'll give you in this episode is what we know to date, but the future could show us something different. When the coelacanth was discovered off the coast of South Africa eighty-five years ago we had no idea where it came from, but we did know where it was caught. The fisherman caught it off the coast of South Africa in the Indian Ocean at a depth of forty fathoms, or 240 feet. We didn't see another one until 1952. This one was caught near the Comoros Islands which is off the southeastern coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean. Now we had an idea of where we might find more. It wasn't until later that researchers went to the islands and talked to the native islanders asking about this giant fish. (Quick note here, we should do more of this. Native inhabitants of areas that others explore know a lot about local wildlife. Why reinvent the wheel when you have so much information right in front of you, if you are just willing to listen?) Now, back to the coelacanth. Locals of the Comoros Islands were familiar with the coelacanth and had even eaten them in the past. Focusing on this area, several more coelacanth were found. In 1998, more coelacanth were discovered in Indonesia, half a world away. The question was how did they get there? Did they migrate? Do they do that seasonally? Did a few get lost? Did they get washed away in a storm? Or have they been there this whole time? Turns out, they'd been there the whole time. When the Indonesian coelacanth was discovered, scientists performed DNA tests to see if they were related to the African coelacanth or possibly a new species. Once again these ancient fish surprised us, the two populations were indeed two separate species. According to research available at the recording of this episode it looks like these two species may have evolved separately. The African coelacanth's scientific name is Latimeria chalumnae and the Indonesian coelacanth's scientific name is Latimeria menadoensis. I mention this because they were named after Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer the discoverer of the first specimen in 1938 and I think it's wonderful that this woman of science gets props for her discovery. Before we get into where exactly these fish are found around the global let's talk about at what depths they are found. This first specimen found in 1938 was caught by fisherman at a depth of 40 fathoms or 240 feet. For quite some time we thought this deepwater depth is where they lived. But we now know that they actually inhabit, mesopelagic waters, also known as the “twilight zone”, that reach depths of 650 feet to 1,300 feet. That's a lot deeper that we thought or ever expected. We're not sure why the original specimens were caught in the shallower depths, but they could have been hunting or they could have been ill and unable to control their swim bladders properly and floated up into shallower depths. More recent sitings of both species have been between 300-500 feet deep, so obviously these fish are doing something important at these depths. Now that we know at what depths the coelacanth can be found let's look at where in the world we can find them. Let's investigate the habitat of the African coelacanth, Latimeria chalumnae, first. These coelacanth are found in the Indian Ocean near the coasts of southeastern Africa, Madagascar, and the Comoros. The first one found in 1938 was caught off the coast of South Africa but after that no more were seen in the area. More specimens were found near the Comoros islands, that are situated between Madagascar and the east coast of Africa, in the 1950s so it was thought that the first one found in 1938 was a stray individual from the Comoros area. But when diving technology advanced, divers using “rebreathers” which allow to you dive deeper underwater than typical scuba gear, and later on researchers using submersibles, saw resident individuals in South African waters. Specimens have been caught off the coast of Madagascar and off the coast of Mozambique and Kenya. Latimeria menadoensis, also known as the Sulawesi coelacanth is from Indonesia. Two specimens were caught off the island of Manado Tua at the northeastern tip of Sulawesi. Later two more were sighted 225 miles southwest of this island. In both regions, coelacanth inhabit temperate waters near steep rocky slopes of volcanic islands. In the daytime, the Comoran coelacanths can be found clustered together in caves in submarine lava deposits. In the evenings they venture out to hunt. The two individuals observed from a submersible in Indonesia were seen in a deep carbonate cave at a depth of 500 feet. Both species seem to depend on caves, canyons, and cliff ledges for almost all aspects of their life. Sleeping during the day and hunting at night seem to be done in and around these structures. in 2021 researchers found evidence that Madagascar might be an unknown haven for coelacanths. In a new review of Madagascar fishery bycatch, 34 specimens were confirmed to be coelacanths. These catches have never been reported to scientists or conservationists before now. This indicates that coelacanth may be living off the coast of Madagascar. When we look at the history of this large island off the coast of Africa, it could be completely possible. Coelacanth are actually older than the island of Madagascar by about 330 million years, but Madagascar has had a coast line for around 88 million years; whereas, the Comoros Islands is only 15 million years old. Based on this history and recent bycatch reports, researchers think that Madagascar might be their ancestral home. More research will need to be done to find out if this is true, but it just one more thing that adds to the mystery of the coelacanth. I am so glad you went deep sea diving with me today to learn about the habitat and species of the coelacanth because it's my third favorite things about them. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change. Join me next week for another episode about the coelacanth.

Today on Mushroom Hour we are joined by the distinguished and prolific George Poinar, Jr. PhD. George received his Ph.D. in biology from Cornell University and spent most of his career in the Department of Entomology at the University of California at Berkeley before moving to Oregon State University, where he is a professor in the Department of Integrative Biology. His interest in the tropics, along with a passion for paleontology, culminated in the book The Amber Forest, co-authored with his wife, Roberta, and published by Princeton University Press. He is also the author of other books, including Life in Amber. In addition, he is a founder of The Amber Institute. He is a pioneer when it comes to studying associations between invertebrates and other organisms in amber. One of his projects was recently all over the news as he discovered a new genus and species of fungal entomoparasite growing out of a fossilized ant – the older mushroom growing from an ant that has ever been found!

The ivory-billed woodpecker was the largest woodpecker in the US. They were once relatively common, stretching from the Carolinas through the southeast and across to Texas. Their numbers started to drop sharply in the 19th century because of habitat loss and overhunting. Many were taken as valuable specimens; some were even eaten by poverty-stricken people. […]
Love science and conservation? Want to discover new ways to protect our species? Elle Kaye chats with guests who work within the science genre, but whose job titles may need a little unpacking. Strap in for entomology, taxidermy, diaphonization, pet remains, human pathology and all those that work with specimens. In episode 034 Elle chats with Dr. Ryan Terrill about his work as an ornithological postdoctoral researcher and the work he does at the Moore Lab of Zoology in California. We discuss the primary focus of his research in molt and character evolution through feather replacement in birds; and the biogeography and natural history of the birds of the New World tropics.

Acclaimed National Geographic photographer David Liittschwager describes his fascination with the octopus, seahorse and jellyfish this way: “Nature loves to hide. I want to see.” And see he does- creating some of the most mesmerizing images of these tiny often overlooked sea creatures. Liittschwager has spent 12 years photographing octopuses, seahorses and jellyfish in more than 28 locations around the world—from Tasmania to Bonaire, the Florida Keys to the Solomon Islands, Portugal to Japan—equipped with his trusty 500-pound photo studio. Get A Copy: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1426221797/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_VV55NN6ADJN4H36M9DKZ Using a white background to capture the smallest of details, including small hairs and translucent tissues, Liittschwager has been able to render the details that would normally go unseen. Accompanying some of the images from the nearly 500 specimens he photographed, are essays by bestselling science writers which further explain the biology of these surprising creatures. While researchers continue to explore to find new sea life, they are in a battle with time as the planet loses species to human activity such as oil spills, global warming, plastic waste and more. More: In this mesmerizing book of photography, acclaimed photographer David Liittschwager reveals the unnerving beauty of three notoriously mysterious sea creatures--the jellyfish, octopus, and seahorse--and how they perceive the world. The jellyfish, the octopus, and the seahorse are among the most wondrous species on Earth--as well as some of the most difficult to document using traditional photography methods. Enter celebrated photographer David Liittschwager, who has spent decades developing specialized portraiture techniques to capture these creatures' pulsating bioluminescence, translucent bodies, and ethereal movements. This luminous collection showcases 200 of Liittschwager's most revealing photographs, paired with penetrating essays that explain how a creature without a brain or without bones perceives the world. Bestselling science writers Elizabeth Kolbert, Jennifer Holland, and Olivia Judson explain the biology and advanced cognitive abilities of these spineless denizens of the deep, exquisitely evoking their unnerving yet undeniable charisma. In these pages, you'll glimpse a seahorse only half an inch tall, a moon jelly spinning off a snowflake-shaped clone, and the blinking comb jelly, which may be the most ancient living animal on Earth. Both enlightening and profound, this enchanting book documents the expanding frontiers of marine science, creating a powerful testament to the value and beauty of these little-seen--and endangered--species.

HT1047 - Enough Variables The other day I recorded an episode of Exploring the Back Issues that featured the work of Julie Meridian from her project Specimens that was published in LensWork #82 in 2009. One of the things that struck me in her project was the number of variables she used that keeps the work interesting.
Episode Summary:In this episode, Amy speaks with Ted Stankowich (@CSULBMammalLab), an Associate Professor and Associate Chair of Biological Sciences at California State University Long Beach.They start out discussing the ecological conditions that favor extreme morphological traits such as armor and weaponry. Then, they talk about Ted's research into mammal coloration, including the relationship between skunk stripes and their infamous spraying abilities. We also learn about Ted's involvement in the Urban Wildlife Information Network (@uwi_network), a collaborative alliance of urban wildlife scientists.After the break, they discuss using museum collections for teaching, why scientists can benefit from social media, and Ted's experience with the tenure process at an R2 institution.This week's Two-Minute Takeaway comes from Ummat Somjee (@ummat_s), a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute.
