Varmints!

Seems like a good day to put 15 minutes of complete nonsense out there. The funny kind of nonsense. Not the scary kind of nonsense. This is for you, April.

Join Paul and Donna for the Tiny Wild Cats Variety Extravaganza on today's episode of Varmints! We'll be discussing four little wild kitties, and their adorable, but deadly ways.

About our voice actors:

With technical support by Matthew Csomo, bed music by Kevin MacLeod, our logo was created by Imran Javed. Our vocal talent was done by the wonderful and supportive Stacey and Frosty, Justine and Santiago, and Chris “The Toph” Green.

Today's show is not about an animal, but we've had a number of requests over the years to talk about it, so we're going to give it a go!

Donna had a chat with two scientists about this topic and gave them a few of the questions from our discussion group, and it ended up being a great conversation.

Joining Donna were Dr. Seth Magle, is the Director of the Urban Wildlife Institute at the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago, and Dr. Tobin Magle, who is the Research Data Lifecycle Manager in the Division of Information Technology at UW-Madison. 

The image attached to this episode is available in the Public Domain, can be found at the CDC's website, and was generated by Hannah A Bullock; Azaibi Tamin.

We hope you enjoy the episode.

This episode was brought to you with technical support by Matthew Csomo. Our bed music is by Kevin MacLeod, our logo was created by Imran Javed and our vocal talent was Justine and Santiago and Curtis Craddock.

Leopards! Paul and Donna love them. Join us as we talk about these amazing big cats.

*Note, Paul and Donna discuss the appearance of a black panther in the Little House in the Big Woods, and thought this was probably a black cougar. After some research, though it appears that the cat in the book was either a jaguar (whose range was that far north at the time of the story), or, Grandpa Olsen made it up! We'll talk about that briefly next recording session. Cheers!
