Episode Description from the Publisher

This week on That’s Just Wild, Steve and Lizzie tackle more of your wildest questions!🐒 Seriously smart chimps, artistic animals & nature’s creative side… from painting primates to musical whales and masterpiece-making bowerbird—but are they really making “art” like we do? 🎨🐋🐦 Can different bird species “talk” to each other? We dive into the surprising world of shared alarm calls—how robins, sparrows and others team up to warn of danger, and why learning bird calls might change the way you experience nature. 🌿👂🌙 Why do so many animals come alive at night? Nearly 70% of mammals are nocturnal—think stealthy panthers and city-dwelling rats adapting to a world after dark. 🌆🦝📝 Leave us a review to let us know what you think — every comment means a lot to the whole team 💚🔔 Make sure you follow That’s Just Wild wherever you get your podcasts so you never miss an episode 🎧Go to thatsjustwild.com to get ad-free listening, special deep-dive episodes and exclusive That's Just Wild goodies.
