In this special edition of Beautiful Blurry Hysteria, Kevin Crispin from Behind Beautiful Things steps in to wrangle the weird while Brent takes a breather! From a Nevada man's questionable claim that tigers make great emotional support pets (hint: 7 might be a bit excessive!), to a small-town Missouri foster mom dabbling in a black-market monkey fiasco, the stories are as off-the-wall as they sound. And if that's not enough to leave you howling, we also take a return dive into whether dire wolves are finally ready to bust out of ancient legend and stroll into our modern world. So, grab your seatbelts for a super-sized portion of strange—it's Beautiful Blurry Hysteria, but with Kevin at the helm and no question left un-wowed!Links & Resources

Las lluvias vuelven a Canarias. La borrasca 'Ivo' trae viento y mala mar a Canarias: lloverá el fin de semana. A pesar de que el archipiélago canario se mantiene al margen del tren de borrascas atlánticas , en las últimas horas ya se han registrado rachas superiores a 80 km/h, oleaje intenso y precipitaciones para el sábado. Hace un año: En lo que va de año en 2023 llegaron a las Islas más de 6.300 personas. Las islas baten su récord de llegadas en 2024 con 46.843 personas. Y este año Canarias podría recibir más de 70.000 migrantes este 2025. Y hoy hace un año: El presidente de Canarias reclama una "respuesta inmediata del Estado" ante la "insostenible" situación migratoria. Hoy se cumplen 1.071 días del cruel ataque e invasión de Rusia a Ucrania. Hoy es jueves 30 de enero de 2025. El Día Internacional del Técnico Electrónico tiene su origen en el año 1980, cuando la Asociación de Técnicos Electrónicos de Córdoba (Asotec), en Colombia, decidió empezar a celebrar esta festividad, con el paso de los años se fue popularizando y en la actualidad es considerada una efeméride internacional. En pocas palabras, es la persona encargada de reparar cualquier dispositivo electrónico, es decir, cualquier objeto que cuente con una placa base o circuito electrónico en su interior, como por ejemplo los hornos de microondas, el sistema de automatización de portones eléctricos o incluso los dispositivos móviles. 1920: Un incendio destruye el Gran Teatro de Madrid. 1930: El Gobierno del general Berenguer sustituye en España al del general Primo de Rivera. 1933: En Alemania, Adolf Hitler asume la Cancillería del Reich. 1938: Formación en Burgos del Primer Gobierno Nacional de España (1938-1939), en el que Francisco Franco asume oficialmente los cargos de Jefe de Estado y de Gobierno. 1948: En Nueva Delhi (capital de India), el fanático hinduista Nathuram Godse asesina al pacifista Mahatma Gandhi, líder de la independencia de India. 1953: España ingresa en la UNESCO. 1997.- Nace la televisión digital en España con la presentación oficial de Canal Satélite Digital. 2018.- El día de su 50 cumpleaños el rey Felipe VI impone el Toisón de Oro a su hija la Princesa Leonor. Santos Lesmes, Abad, Félix y Martina. Un avión con 64 personas a bordo choca contra un helicóptero militar cerca del aeropuerto de Washington. La UE da "pleno apoyo" a Dinamarca ante las amenazas de Trump, dice Costa. La economía española se mantiene fuerte en el cuarto trimestre y cierra 2024 con un crecimiento del 3,2%. El fiscal general niega ante el Supremo que filtrara los correos del caso de la pareja de Ayuso. El Gobierno defiende la “integridad” del fiscal general mientras el PP vuelve a exigir su dimisión. El PP votará 'sí' al nuevo decreto pactado entre el Gobierno y Junts pero critica la "mentira" y el "chantaje". Puigdemont celebra que Sánchez modificara el decreto 'ómnibus': "Gobernar en minoría requiere que negocies". El Gobierno de Canarias pide un decreto exclusivo que garantice el transporte gratuito en las Islas "El sistema de transporte en el Archipiélago presenta "características únicas", insiste la directora general de Transportes. Gobierno y ayuntamientos aceleran para rebajar de dos años a seis meses la licencia para construir viviendas. El Ejecutivo prevé jornadas técnicas con los municipios para aplicar el nuevo decreto que agilizará la tramitación de licencias urbanísticas, que verá la luz en marzo, además de los cambios que va a realizar en la ley del suelo. La potente creación de empleo y la reducción de activos conducen a Canarias a la menor tasa de paro desde 2007. El Archipiélago cierra 2024, el año de todos los récords en turismo, con una tasa de paro del 11,9%, el dato más bajo desde el cuarto trimestre de 2007, cuando llegó al 10,9%; los ocupados superan en 11.200 personas el buen valor de 2023, entonces en más 26.100 anual. Nueva Canarias lamenta la salida del partido del alcalde de Gáldar e insiste en expandir el canarismo de izquierdas. El partido liderado por Román Rodríguez asegura que si el BNR sigue en el espacio del canarismo progresista “se encontrarán” más veces, pero es algo que no sucederá si se dirigen hacia el nacionalismo “conservador”. Tal día como hoy, 30 enero de 1969, The Beatles hacen su última presentación pública dando un concierto improvisado en el techo del estudio de grabación de Londres. En abril del año siguiente, Paul McCartney anunció formalmente la ruptura del grupo. - Sección de actualidad con mucho sentido de Humor inteligente en el programa El Remate de La Diez Capital radio con el periodista socarrón y palmero, José Juan Pérez Capote, El Nº 1. - Sección en el programa El Remate de La Diez Capital radio con el especialista en el sector primario, el Dr. Wladimiro Rodríguez Brito. - Sección en el programa El Remate de La Diez Capital radio con el periodista, Francisco Pallero, la economista, Cristina A.

Un nuevo estudio publicado en el Journal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens pone en duda la efectividad de los santuarios marinos como una solución óptima para mejorar el bienestar de cetáceos que viven bajo cuidado humano. La investigación se centró en el Sea Life Trust Beluga Whale Sanctuary, ubicado en Islandia, que acoge a dos belugas trasferidas de un acuario en China. Tras cinco años de operaciones, los resultados revelan importantes desafíos y limitaciones del modelo de santuario marino. Se trata del único santuario de cetáceos operativo que existe en el mundo, por lo que los resultados representan toda la evidencia científica disponible sobre el mantenimiento de cetáceos en estos recintos. ¿Una promesa incumplida? Pese a las expectativas de que un entorno natural mejoraría el bienestar de las belugas, el estudio señala que las dos residentes del santuario, Little Grey y Little White, pasaron el 92,6% del tiempo en un estanque cubierto tradicional. Solo un 3,4% del periodo operacional se utilizó la bahía del santuario, a menudo promovida como una “solución natural” para su bienestar. Las razones para este limitado acceso incluyen problemas de salud, como úlceras gástricas y disminución del apetito, así como la necesidad de proteger a las belugas de condiciones climáticas adversas. Estos hallazgos cuestionan la creencia de que simplemente trasladar cetáceos a un entorno marino garantiza una mejor calidad de vida. Lecciones clave para el futuro El informe destaca lagunas en la planificación y ejecución del proyecto, como la falta de un programa de comportamiento estructurado y un plan de adiestramiento. Los autores destacan que el modelo actual requiere revisión y refinamiento para abordar los retos de salud y bienestar asociados con el traslado a estos entornos. “El caso de Little Grey y Little White evidencia que las condiciones naturales, por sí solas, no aseguran un mejor bienestar para los cetáceos. Se necesita una planificación mucho más robusta y soluciones personalizadas,” explicó Javier Almunia, uno de los autores del estudio. Transparencia y evidencia científica La investigación también destaca la falta de acceso público a datos clave sobre el bienestar de los cetáceos en el santuario. “Los intentos de obtener información detallada sobre el control del bienestar directamente del personal del santuario o sus consultores se han visto obstaculizados por acuerdos de confidencialidad que restringen el intercambio de datos”, explican los autores. A su juicio, la publicación de información detallada sobre las evaluaciones de bienestar, tanto positivas como negativas, facilitaría un análisis más completo de los resultados obtenidos. Este enfoque permitiría a investigadores, legisladores y al público en general comprender mejor los desafíos y avances asociados con los santuarios marinos. Además, una mayor transparencia podría contribuir a mejorar las prácticas operativas y fomentar debates más informados sobre el cuidado de los cetáceos bajo cuidado humano. “La hipótesis fundacional de que los entornos naturales mejoran inherentemente el bienestar de los cetáceos no parece cumplirse en la práctica. La repetida necesidad de devolver a piscina convencionales por razones de salud o bienestar, junto con el limitado tiempo que pasan en la bahía (sólo el 3,4% del periodo operativo), sugiere que las condiciones naturales por sí solas podrían no garantizar un mayor bienestar”, concluyen los autores Aunque los santuarios marinos se presentan como un término medio entre el mantenimiento en centros zoológicos y la vida en la naturaleza, la investigación indica que no garantizan mejores resultados de bienestar de manera inherente. Este hallazgo insta a un enfoque más matizado y basado en evidencias para el cuidado de cetáceos.

The Executive Director and co-founder of Zoological Disaster Response, Rescue and Recovery (ZDR3), Julia Wilder returns to discuss her organization's efforts to assist zoological facilities in the wake of back-to-back hurricanes, Helene and Milton. With nearly 200 USDA licensed animal facilities joined together to provide mutual aid to institutions in distress, ZDR3 has already surpassed all expectations in its 5-year history. Julia describes her team's actions prior to, during and following these most recent devastating storms, as well as, ideas to enhance and improve national coordination so that mutual aid meets facilities where they are and provides them what they need, not just what people want to offer.

The St. Louis Zoo is part of a team of conservationists that have done what few scientists have ever accomplished: successfully reintroduce an extinct species back to the wild. Zoological manager Kayla Garcia shares how the Patula snail went extinct and was brought back to life in their native South Pacific Island of Moorea.

Zoological correspondent and author Jules Howard on the revolutionary story of eggs.
When I was in school, I was presented with book knowledge as if that's all there was to know, don't bother looking further. Geologic knowledge? We know how everything came to be. Zoological information? We know every species, every adaptation, every nuance. Science? Yes, these are theories, but they have been tested and true. Scientists STILL wear the word, 'theory' like a itchy wool coat. It's beyond uncomfortable. But as I grew up and kept looking for knowledge, I saw previously thought extinct animals found. I saw tested theories get rewritten, then disregarded entirely. And that ecosystem of information? It is expanding as we breathe. With advances in instruments alone, we are able to see beneath the surface of the Earth , see further into space, observe particles too small for my brain to comprehend. We don't know it all. We don't know a fraction of what is true. Saying that, is encouraging. It's exciting. There are many breakthroughs yet to be made by future generations. In the words of, UP! Adventure Awaits!Learning about the Emerald Tablet last week drove me to look at secret knowledge and the gatekeepers involved in meting out that information. I learned about powerful occult figure, John Dee, found a man on YouTube digging into old newspapers finding articles from the 1800s that prove North American history isn't accurate as it stands. I also take an important pitstop to talk plainly about the ethics surrounding subconscious and psychic work. I even share a powerful message from my friend, Monique Pliakos.I'll give you quick tools to muscle-up your own gut instincts.

Join us for a thought-provoking live podcast featuring Jack Donovan and C.B. Robertson as they delve into the origins of the philosophy of humanism and inspect its ideological baggage. Then we'll throw all of that out with the "blank slate" it was scribbled on and talk about the need for an approach to living that acknowledges human nature as a product of our physiology and evolutionary history. What is the nature of the human animal - from a zoological perspective - and how do we live more harmoniously within the confines of that nature?A pro-human position is sorely needed as AI development accelerates and the transhumanist death cult cheers on our collective oblivion. ---C. B. Robertson is the author of The Hero and the Man, Holy Nihilism, Letter to Anwei, and more.

If you are one of the millions of people that became obsessed with Tiger King then you are going to be enthralled by today's episode. Our guest, Maria Tabraue, is the Co-President and Director of ZWF (Zoological Wildlife Foundation) in Miami , a sanctuary dedicated to educating the public about endangered animals in captivity and in the wild. Rachel got a first hand look at the beautiful property and the animals that live there. She chatted with Maria about what it's like living at the zoo amongst the wildlife, their Instagram superstar, chimpanzee Limbani and what animals are still on her bucket list. Maria didn't hold back when discussing some of the zoo's detractors. She responds to the negative press by PETA, how ZWF is nothing like the zoo in Tiger King and what she really thinks of Carole Baskin. No matter what your opinion, one thing is for sure, Maria is proud of ZWF and their mission. --- --- --- Follow Rachel on Instagram! @RachelUchitelNYC Executive Producer: Alison Goodman Please like, share, subscribe, and give us a 5-star review!

I was thrilled to be able to talk to Dr Eduardo J Fernandez on the podcast. Not only is he an amazing applied behaviour researcher but he is great at putting some of the more technical definitions into easy to understand terminology. Our discussion centres around training as enrichment but there were also some rabbit holes and side stories that we delved into. Eduardo J. Fernandez is a Senior Lecturer of Applied Animal Behaviour and Welfare in the School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences at the University of Adelaide (Australia). He received his Ph.D. in Psychology (minors in Neuroscience and Animal Behavior) from Indiana University, where he worked with the Indianapolis and Cincinnati Zoo. He received his M.S. in Behavior Analysis from the University of North Texas, where he founded the Organization for Reinforcement Contingencies with Animals (ORCA). Most of his past and current work involves behavioral research applied to the welfare and training of zoo, aquarium, and companion animals. His past positions include a Visiting Professorship in the Psychology Department at Seattle Pacific University, a Visiting Professorship in the School of Behavior Analysis at the Florida Institute of Technology, an Affiliate Assistant Professorship in the Psychology Department at the University of Washington, a Research Fellowship with Woodland Park Zoo, and a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship. While working with UW and the Woodland Park Zoo, he started the Behavioral Enrichment Animal Research (BEAR) group, which conducted welfare research with many of the species and exhibits located throughout the zoo. He currently runs the Operant Welfare Lab (OWL), which is dedicated to the use of learning principles to improve the lives of animals. OWL is also part of the broader Animal Behaviour, Welfare, and Anthrozoology Lab (ABWAL; abwal.com). Many of Eduardo's past publications, research projects, and presentations can be found on his ResearchGate profile: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Eduardo-Fernandez-27 Some of the studies/reviews that we mention can be found below and are open access.

HPZS is welcoming two new Jaguars! It has been 15 years since the zoo lost Inca, a beloved Black Jaguar, and longtime animal resident. We are now honored to provide sanctuary to “Notch,” a male Black Jaguar aged 1 ½ years, as well as “Tulio,” a Spotted Jaguar age 1 year. Both animals were surplus from another zoological institution and needed a permanent home. The animals are currently acclimating to their new exhibits and will be visible to the public on their own schedule. To make room for the new cats, “Gus,” the Black Bear has been moved to a...

Giant panda Ya Ya arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport on Thursday from Memphis, Tennessee.4月27日,大熊猫“丫丫”从田纳西州的孟菲斯飞抵上海浦东国际机场。Ya Ya returned to China from the United States after a 20-year loan for a joint research and conservation project, according to the National Forestry and Grassland Administration.据国家林业和草原局称,在获得为期20年的联合研究和保护项目贷款后,“丫丫”即将从美国返回中国。In December, the Memphis Zoo announced that it would return Ya Ya, who arrived in the US in 2003.2022年12月,孟菲斯动物园宣布将归还2003年抵达美国的“丫丫”。The zoo hosted a farewell party for the 23-year-old female panda on April 8, with hundreds of people attending the event, Xinhua News Agency reported.据新华社报道,4月8日,孟菲斯动物园为23岁的雌性大熊猫“丫丫”举办了欢送会,数百人参加了此次活动。In January, Chinese netizens showed their concern for Ya Ya, who appeared somewhat malnourished in pictures and videos posted.1月,中国网民表达了对“丫丫”的关注,在发布的照片和视频中,“丫丫”显得有些营养不良。In response, the Chinese Association of Zoological Gardens said in an announcement that the zoo had taken good care of her, and there is no indication that she was neglected, based on videos of her and the results of monthly health reports and annual physical examinations.对此,中国动物园协会在一份公告中表示,从“丫丫”的视频、月度健康报告和年度体检结果看来,动物园将“丫丫”照顾得很好,并没有任何忽视“丫丫”的迹象。In 2006, Ya Ya began to shed fur, a condition that worsened in 2014. Experts at the Memphis Zoo and in China tried various forms of treatment but were unable to resolve the problem, the association said.中国动物园协会表示,2006年,“丫丫”的毛发开始脱落,2014年,毛发脱落的情况恶化。孟菲斯动物园和中国的专家尝试了各种形式的治疗,但无法解决这个问题。Zoological英/ˌzuːəˈlɒdʒɪk(ə)l/ 美/ˌzuːəˈlɑːdʒɪk(ə)l/adj.动物学的

Historically, many if not most scientists dismissed the value of studying wild animals in managed care settings like zoos and aquariums. With dwindling wild populations in need of immediate conservation solutions and increased competition for research funding, the importance and relevance of studying animals in human care has been on the increase. Friend of the podcast, Dr. Jason Bruck and some of his graduate students discuss the challenges and opportunities of developing working relationships with zoological facilities and staff, as well as, the "game changing" emergence of smaller, cheaper, and more powerful technologies with which to study marine and terrestrial animals.

Richard Freeman (born Nuneaton, England, in 1970) is a cryptozoologist, author, zoological journalist, and WebTV Presenter. He is also Zoological Director of the Centre for Fortean Zoology (CFZ), and co-edits both the journal, Animals & Men and several editions of the annual CFZ Yearbook. Richard Freeman has written, co-written, or edited a number of books, and has contributed widely to both Fortean and zoological magazines, as well as other newspapers and periodicals, including Fortean Times and Paranormal Magazine. He has also lectured across the UK at events such as the Fortean Times Unconvention, the Weird Weekend, Microcon and at museums such as the Natural History Museum and the Grant Museum of Natural History in London. When interviewed by author Nick Redfern in 2005, Freeman claimed an early obsession with the classic science fiction series Dr Who (with Jon Pertwee) had sparked an interest in all things weird. After school he became a zookeeper at Twycross Zoo in the West Midlands and became head keeper of reptiles, working with more than 400 exotic species from ants to elephants (but with a special interest in crocodilians). After leaving the zoo, he worked in an exotic pet shop, a reptile rescue centre, and as a gravedigger. In 1995, Freeman began studying zoology at Leeds University. Whilst on holiday from the university, he learned of the CFZ and bought a copy of the Centre's journal Animals & Men, which left him impressed enough to subscribe and begin contributing. He eventually became the CFZ's Yorkshire representative and, once the course had ended, moved to Devon to become a full-time member of the Centre. He is now the Zoological Director and co-editor of Animals & Men. - http://www.cfz.org.uk *** AND NOW ***The ‘X' Zone TV Channel on SimulTV - www.simultv.comThe ‘X' Zone TV Channel Radio Feed (Free - No Subscription Required) - https://www.spreaker.com/show/xztv-the-x-zone-tv-show-audio The ‘X' Chronicles Newspaper - www.xchroniclesnewspaper.com (Free)To contact Rob McConnell - misterx@xzoneradiotv.com
