Episode notes

Kaylee Swift got her Masters in Science in Animal Behavior and Neuro-Ethology. She completed her research about crowed death behaviors in just over three years. Her dissertation was due by midnight on the last night possible before the end of the quarter. There was a post doctorate position in Denali that started right after she wanted to be able to hop over and do that work.

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.
