Episode notes

The patterns in animals can be a little bit easier to detect for some people than the patterns in human beings, cause humans are so complicated. How has working in corvintenatology changed your relation to mortality or morning practices? I'm hoping that you haven't had to interface with any like human funerals but do you find yourself looking at it differently? i feel like we need to have louder, more raucous funerals, maybe yaill scream if they want to. If some one over there is making out, getting a tha, i don't knowdon't like itwe mornit in all ways.

Crows have funerals? CROWS HAVE FUNERALS. The inky black bird with the big brain warns and maybe mourns around their fallen friends and Dr. Kaeli Swift is here to tell us all about it. As an avid wildlife researcher and corvid specialist, she's observed death behaviors that will shock you to your bones and ruffle your hackles -- while somehow also making you cry about peanuts. Also: so much inspiration to keep being yourself and to work hard toward what you love. She is a hero.
