🦤This week on the Wildly Curious podcast🧠:
"Could You Train a Dinosaur? Science (and Chaos) Says Yes!"

What if we could train dinosaurs? 🦖
It sounds ridiculous… but is it impossible? Laura and I discuss the absolute ridiculous, (yet we argue, plausible) jobs we would train them for.

Some dinosaurs were fast. Some were smart. Some—maybe—could have been trained like working dogs, carrier pigeons, or even modern-day service animals.

So what if we put them to work?

💡 What kind of jobs could dinosaurs have done?
🔥 Would some have been trainable?
😬 And which ones would have just… ignored the training and caused catastrophe?

This week on Wildly Curious, we’re diving into the science of animal training, cognition, and the wild possibilities of a dino-powered workforce.

Would you trust a trained dinosaur? Or are we one Jurassic Park sequel away from disaster?

📣 Hey friends, we need your input! 📣

Our podcast has been growing fast, and we’re thrilled! Recently, we updated our cover art and saw a spike in downloads. Due to a variety of factors….we’re considering changing the name from For the Love of Nature to something that’s easier to find and more memorable: Wildly Curious.

We won’t start over—just swap the title on all platforms, so no need to resubscribe!

✨ We’d love your feedback! Which name do you prefer?
For the Love of Nature OR Wildly Curious?

Your voice matters, and we want to make the best choice for our current listeners, but also all the ones we hope to gain in the future!
