Episode 44 - Hybridization
Manage episode 217384172 series 2398002
In this episode, we tackle the fascinating – and confusing – subject of hybridization. What are hybrids? Why are hybrids? And if organisms can breed across subspecies and species boundaries, what does that mean for our understanding of important topics like evolution, speciation, and conservation?
In the news: saber-tooth footprints, a Cambrian filter-feeder, false extinctions, and an ancient pet trade.
