Join Melissa as she dives deep into the weirdest, funniest, sciency-est ways in which animals intersect at humanity. How is a horse responsible for the FDA? How did fish farts nearly cause bombs to fly between Russia and Sweden? How did a pigeon save 194 soldiers in wartime? Why are honey bees trained to find unexploded landmines in Croatia? Let’s find out on BewilderBeasts – where animals intersect at humanity!

For the last episode of the year, Melissa reviews all the creatures we talked about in a not-so-classic retelling of Clement Clarke Moore's, "'Twas the Night Before Christmas", but with more dogs, swearing parrots and an exploding whale.
Today, Melissa explores other customs, like the "Boomers" who pull Santa's sled in Australia, how a video game about animals has given a place for practicing Muslims to find community in a pandemic, and what a confused Rooster has to do with Christmas in the Philippines.
Today on Bewilderbeasts, Melissa explores two popular Christmas Songs: Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and the 12 Days of Christmas. Why are the reindeer named “Donder and Blitzen?”; when DID Santa decide to go with reindeer instead of a nice mustang? And, we’re going to figure out why on EARTH someone’s true love gave them all those dang birds.
Today Melissa discusses the rats of the Black Plague who got a bad rap ; the tiniest, but mightiest, snot house of the sea, and a common house pet who is banned from Queensland, Australia.
We’re going to talk about a frisky feline who left her prints ALL over history, a mutt who was promoted to sergeant in WW1 and a snake who sent a man to a hospital hours after the snake was beheaded.
Smoky the 4# dog hero of WW2, a boy who solved the puzzle of the missing Lemur, and a national weather service announcement about falling frozen iguanas!
Welcome to Bewilderbeasts! Today, we’re going to talk about the sloooooooooooowest two minutes in sports, why goats got banned from a national park, and how lobsters pee out of their faces.
