Elyse straight up lies by calling this a short episode.  First, we tackle a 'News for You' about Ceratopsian beaks.  Then we talk about the ever growing challenges in understanding mosquitos.  We touch on how they spread disease, what we're doing to overcome that, and what they're doing to overcome what we're doing...it's a cycle.  Thankfully, there is some exciting news coming out in the citizen science world.  Next we visit a very special fish that puts other venomous animals to shame!  Lastly we take a look at a tadpole, who's looking back at us, using its rear!  As always if you have any corrections or questions, hit us up on [email protected] Show notes and resources will be posted on podcastbraindump.com ENJOY and thank you for listening!
