Description

This episode is all about Animals! In this creature feature we talk about the ways animals have adapted to life with humans at the top of the food chain and how our environmental impact has affected the critters that share our planet from their learned behavior to genetic changes. Then Micaela gives us a crow update on the Corvid crews that populate her neighborhood and how her interactions with these super smart birds has progressed. Finally, it’s time for “Pop Quiz, Buddy!” where Elle gets Micaela and Jerbil to guess what film starring an animal she’s describing! Play along if you can!

Featuring Original Song “Henny Penny” by Micaela Superstar
