6. Mosquito and Dolphin

Weird Animal Facts: Explicit

For decades society has told us what animals to fear; rats, snakes, ravens, owls and spiders. But I am here to tell you that these are not the critters that should send a shiver down your spine. This episode is about two of animals that SHOULD be the mascots for Halloween. Learn about the true horrors that the mosquito and dolphin plague upon the world! (Okay dolphins aren't that bad, this is a comedy/science show, so we're trying to make you laugh and educate) But mosquitos do suck.
Join me, zookeeper Deidre, as we look at the true biting dangers of the mosquito and why and how they hold a risk to reindeer survival (mosquitos could literally ruin Christmas). And Dolphins....what can I say about this devil. They can attack. Dolphins are the worst. Dolphins are smart; too smart! That brain is always turning and could possibly compete against us humans. I just hope they stay in the ocean where they belong.
Here are the "overrated" and bloody scientific names:
Yellow Fever mosquito: Aedes aegypti
African Malaria mosquito: Anopheles gambiae giles
Arctic mosquito: Aedes nigripes
Pacific bottlenose dolphin: Tursipos truncatus
