What an appropriate subject for the week before Halloween! Rachel brings us the very creepy Crypt-keeper Wasp. This parasitic wasp eats you alive inside your home and then forces you to dig a tunnel so it can escape by bursting through your forehead. All completely normal yes?
Kirk takes a turn to the humorous side by putting biologist's sense of humor on display when it comes to silly scientific names for plants and animals. From a fungus named after Spongebob to a Trilobite named after Han Solo, scientists sometimes like to wave their freak flag.
