Big Picture Science - Animals Being Jerks
They’re cute and cuddly. But they can also be
obnoxious.
Science writer Mary Roach has numerous tales
about how our animal friends don’t always bow to their human overlords and
behave the way we’d want. The resulting encounters, such as when gulls disrupt
the Vatican’s Easter mass, make for amusing stories. But others, such as wolves
threatening farmers’ livestock, can be tragic.
We hear what happens at the messy crossroads
of human and wildlife encounters.
Guest:
- Mary Roach – Author of bestselling nonfiction books, most recently “Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law.”
