Show Notes

This week on the Science Pawdcast:
In Science News we discuss the woes of recycling plastic.....but also some hope with an engineered enzyme from soil bacteria!  In pet science we take a look at the work done by food chemists to make dog food even more delicious for our slobbery friends.  Our Expert Guest is pHD student Kassandra Ford who chats with us about a whole bunch of educational, fun, and serious topics!  We touch on her work with electric fish, but also her role in the Black Lives Matter movement.  Don't miss it!  Finally a great Woo or Wow with a LTCHS staff member who has a Golden Mountain Dog and then an off the rails family section!
