We just finished recording our late April Fools episode and are editing it as you listen. Those who have been listening to our show since Spring 2023 will know that in our April Fools episode, we talk about 5 crazy animals, 4 real, and 1 I just made up, and you can send in your guesses of which it is.

Updates on the next episodes of Kingdom: Animalia, plus some jokes!
______________________

Sorry, you have to wait a little longer for the next episodes. It’s taken extra time because we’re making a miniseries for the animal you got the riddle for, and one of them was an interview; also, we’ve updated the cover art and the website. Also homework.

Update: The miniseries has been postponed for our annual April Fools’ special!

While you wait for the next episode, listen to Chet tell you three animal jokes to pass the time...

Their bad rap is completely batty!

Do Vampire Bats drink human blood (**SPOILER ALERT: NO**)? Do bats deserve their bad reputation? Have people gone to war over bat poop? Did scientists have Common Vampire Bats go to the gym? Are Vampire Bats actually very nice to each other? Today with your host, Devon, and co-hosts, Chet and Cap, on Kingdom: Animalia’s 1st ANNIVERSARY episode, you will learn everything there is to know about the Common Vampire Bat, Desmodus rotundus.
