The Snapdragon Hunt

Listened

// It’s the tale of an epic science adventure. It’s the drama of the hunt for a dragon… a snapdragon! This isn’t the kind of dragon that breathes fire. It’s a flower! And biologists have been hunting for them every summer, in an ongoing quest to understand how species evolve and separate. //

The Mystery of the Barton Springs Salamander with Dr. Hayley Gillespie

This is an episodic podcast, so you can listen to it in any order, but episode one is a great place to start.

Listen to episode one here

It’s the tale of an epic science adventure. It’s the drama of the hunt for a dragon… a snapdragon! This isn’t the kind of dragon that breathes fire. It’s a flower! And biologists have been hunting for them every summer, in an ongoing quest to understand how species evolve and separate.

We tag along with biologist Carina Baskett on her very first day of the snapdragon hunt, in the Pyrenees mountains of Spain. Join us as we get excited about “fieldwork” - one of the coolest (and most adventurous) parts of the scientific process!

You can see photos from the snapdragon hunt and learn about fieldwork all over the world, on our blog.

We’re doing it live! Check out Tumble’s live events coming up in August, on our website.
