Description

Two weeks ago, much of the country stopped for a few minutes in the middle of the day to watch at least a partial solar eclipse. And in the path of totality, researchers were keeping an eye on animals to see how four minutes of darkness changed their behaviors.
This week on Something Offbeat, Dr. Adam Hartstone-Rose, a professor of biological science at North Carolina State University, joined Mike Rogers, to discuss his findings from April 8.
