Join Ellen & special guest, behavioral zoologist and science communicator Thomas Green, for a look at some of the fascinating ways animals get close to each other. We’ll talk about the diversity of affections between animals, lessons we should learn from the way animals mate and some lessons we probably shouldn’t, bust some myths, make a REALLY good pun about cricket song frequencies, and so much more.

HEADS UP: This episode is about courtship and mating behaviors, so naturally a lot of this conversation is about sex. As usual for this podcast, the discussion isn’t graphic or explicit or anything, but sex is mentioned frequently throughout the episode, so please join us for this one only if that’s something you’re comfortable hearing about.
