Show Notes

Hi everyone!  We are hoping you and your family are happy and healthy!
This week on the Science Pawdcast we look at a very interesting study that found a molecule appears to have a role in sleep.  It's tricky and complicated but we hope at the end everyone learns something!  In Pet Science we are doing our homework on the huge study that was just released on dog breeds and behaviours.  We are chatting later in June with one of the authors and the study is so interesting!
Our expert guest is the fascinating Tea Francis, someone who had dedicated her life to studying and drawing spiders.  We could have listened to her talk spiders for HOURS!
Finally, a wacky family section rounds out the podcast!
