Episode 242 - Fire
Notes de l’épisode
Earth is a very flammable world. The combination of heat, oxygen, and burnable plants makes fire a constant feature of our planet. Many modern ecosystems thrive in the presence of fire, and lots of plant and animal species have adapted to avoid or take advantage of the flames. This episode, we explore the diverse topic of fire ecology, and we take a tour through the deep history of fire on Earth.
In the news: Triassic crocs, anglerfish lures, behavior and evolution, and synapsid babies.
