Description

This week Jack is joined by Dagmar der Weduwen, a PhD student and Archerfishionando! What that means is she knows all about the wonderful world of archerfish! So, the duo discuss the archerfish's bizarre hunting techniques, why the fish would make excellent firefighters, how clever they are and the threats that they face!
Jack and Dagmar also discuss their shared love of St Andrews; why Dungeons & Dragons is the perfect cure for PhD stress; Social Learning; the importance of mangrove ecosystems; and how the IUCN Red List, while often useful, can also not always be the most helpful…
The pair are also joined by extra special guest, Willow the cat. Willow is a trailblazer, because she is the first cat to ever cause complete chaos on the podcast! 
This is the penultimate episode of the series! We hope you enjoy ?
