Cool Facts About Animals is a podcast by kids, for kids. Each episode, we share the coolest facts about animals. Sometimes we speak with experts. Sometimes we just speak with ourselves. We love to give tips at the end about how kids can help protect animals and the environment.

During the time, they’ve seen a lot of changes in the world. We talk about these living fossils, including why their blood is so valuable, their many eyes and legs, and many other cool facts.
Dragons are one of the most amazing animals in the world – but it’s hard to get the facts about them when they are so rare.
We have a really cool special episode for you today. In this one, we interview Gina Zwicky. Gina is a graduate student at the University of New Orleans, where she studies reptile immuno-evolution, and she knows a ton of stuff about toads, frogs, alligators and turtles. In this episode, we learn about snapping turtles’ butt-breathing, how to tell an alligator from a crocodile, and why frogs have the coloring they do. We also learn about Gina’s frog watch events, and why they’re helpful to science. We hope you enjoy!
This is one tough animal. Smart, recklessly aggressive, equipped with tough skin, stink bombs and sharp claws – even lions run from the honey badger!
Learn more about sea stars (aka starfish) while playing along with the Cool Facts About Animals and At Your Level podcasts. During this activity-filled video, you’ll learn how to draw the crown of thorns sea star, make an origami sea star, and hear a story about a sea star going to the library. You’ll also get to see Jaguar interviewed as a sea star – aka Ulysses S. Grant. Plus, dad jokes and some holiday trombone music.
Grady, Clara, Teddy and mom Ali sit down to talk about the starfish (or is it a sea star?). You’ll learn that this festive-shaped star can come with many, many more arms than you’d imagine, what important things it’s lacking, the strange place its eyes are located, and about its amazing superpower.
In this episode, the crew shares a whole bunch of really, really gross animal facts. If you do not like being grossed out, DO NOT listen to this episode! Animals include a toad that gives birth by baby toads breaking through the skin on its back, a lizard that shoots blood from its eyes, an animal that feasts on human skin, and a sea cucumber that shoots out its internal organs.
In this episode, we get pretty confused talking about opossums v. possums – because they sound the same! We sort it out with the help of Jaguar’s helpful poem. We also learn about why they play dead and why it’s so confusing, other gross defense mechanisms, and lots of other cool facts.
