Episode notes

i consider myself an incredibly ampathetic person. For me, the draw to animals was that animals are so non judgmentaland riotr. Do you think empathis is part of what you do observing behavior? i can remember going to certain colleges and having people be like, don't waste your time. You are not going to get in here. Oh, my god. And just being like, well, and now you're doctor, and now i'm a doctor, and i got s f grant, so screw you. There are many ways to succeed.

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.
