How would you deal with sewage waste pollution? Here in Missoula, the answer was.... poplar trees. Here's the weird reason that these poplar trees are some of nature's best cleaners, and why our hometown heroes might not be so awesome...

How can we rethink hybrid work so it brings out the best in both in-person and distributed employees? Leadership expert Tsedal Neeley shares the changes that we need to make in order to create workplaces that actually work -- no matter...

Scientists have discovered a group of three closely related flowers that seem to break the laws of genetics. These mountain beardtongues are pollinated by either bees or butterflies, but not both, and that's the key to an incredibly...

Chromosome shenanigans have resulted in some unexpected hybrid fishes. Also, this record-breaking mouse lives at a ridiculous altitude.

There are wild hybridizations happening all the time! Here are five weird and wild hybrids that aren't just cool but could teach us something too. Hosted by: Hank Green (he/him) 0:00 Intro 1:06 Arctic Oddballs 3:43 Bouncing Baby Bears...

We often think of categories as fixed, with a species being a species no matter what. The thing is, life doesn’t have to follow our rules.

Although polar bears and grizzly bears aren't all that similar and are definitely separate species, they can interbreed and create fertile offspring in the wild. Hank brings us the story of these misfit bears, which he likes to call...

Humans have been eating seafood for thousands of years, but some animals don’t grow very fast, and others taste pretty gross for at least part of the year. To solve these problems, scientists sometimes turn to genetics. If you eat...

American chestnut trees were all over the US at the end of the 19th century until the fungus wiped most of them out. Scientists have been trying to figure out ways to bring those endangered American chestnuts back to their former glory.

Horse plus donkey — it seems like an unlikely combination. I mean, they're different species! And yet, when they get together, they can produce a mule or the lesser-known hinny. Either way, those offspring usually can't become parents...

We all know about inter species animal hybrids - Napoleon Dynamite's favorite animal, the liger, is a typical example. But could a human and our closest primate relative the chimpanzee also breed a living hybrid? Hank explores this ......

"Punkin Chunkin" is the United State's annual contest to see whose homemade machine can hurl a pumpkin the farthest (without explosives!). Every November, thousands of amateur engineers converge on a farm in Delaware to put their...

Paul Andersen explains how the Meselson-Stahl experiment was used to prove that DNA copied itself through a semi-conservative process. They grew E. coli in a medium containing heavy nitrogen (N-15). They then added the E. coli to a...

Hybrid organisms are rare, and most end up sterile, like mules. But sometimes, three or more species come together to create multi-species hybrids, and they can and have been really useful.

Scientists are discovering new species at the bottom of the ocean and deep in the rainforest, but there are also plenty of new animals being discovered in cities around the world!

Explore speciation with The Amoeba Sisters. This video discusses sympatric and allopatric speciation and covers several types of isolation types including behavioral, temporal, and habitat isolations. Table of Contents: Intro 00:00...

Hank explains speciation - the evolutionary process by which new biological species arise - in terms of finches, ligers, mules, and dogs.

In this video Paul Andersen explains how the frequency of recombination between linked genes can be used to determine the relative location of genes on a chromosome. Thomas Hunt Morgan and Alfred Strutevant used the fruit fly to develop...

An ethically questionable new genetic technique attempts to grow human organs inside of pigs.

Science Kids Bringing Back Extinct Animals - Should We Just Because We Can

The video explores the concept of gene splicing and creating hybrid animals through genetic engineering techniques like CRISPR technology. It discusses...

In this video I will show how to turn a beautiful log into the breath-taking fire vase using epoxy resin and red pigments. Log is unknown, could be a mulberry piece but it has intense yellow colour what makes it the prefect match to...
