Listen "Ep. 358 - Oaks, Wasps, Galls, and Ants"
Episode Synopsis
What started as a question about some strange "seeds" in ant ant nest turned into an explosion of scientific investigations into the links between oaks, gall wasps, and ants. Join Dr. Robert Warren and me as we discuss the mind-blowing evolutionary insights that can come from natural history observations and what they could mean for seed dispersal in spring ephemerals.
