72: Stuck Part 1: Reproductive problems in lizards

Geckos are on the run – how exactly do they do it? Are fish self-aware? How do you monitor the wellbeing of captive elephants? We attempt to answer these questions in our news of the week. Don’t blink – you may miss the final news article.

Reproductive issues in lizards is our main topic this week. Mark and Brendan discuss the various problems encountered in lizards when things go wrong with reproduction, and how to fix these issues. This has turned out to be a bigger topic than anticipated so this is Part 1 of 2. Listen next week for Part 2!
