🐖Invasive species cost $120 billion every year in the US, and I'm breaking down five of the most invasive animals in the United States. The spotted lanternfly, starlings, pigs and more..

📉Declining Tasmanian devil populations are causing genetic changes in another species - the spotted tailed quoll. Watch to understand how the decline of a top predator affects the rest of the food web.

🦧We now have more information on the extinction of the giant ape. Why did this happen? How did they find out? And what does this mean for humans? As we are facing the sixth mass extinction event, finding out about unresolved extinctions is vital!
