👁Who owns the "wilderness"?
🧠Elyse Cox
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣In 1903, US President Theodore Roosevelt took a camping trip in California's Yosemite Valley with conservationist John Muir.

👁Would you raise the bird that murdered your children?
🧠Steve Rothstein
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English

👣A mother honeyguide has placed its chick into a bee-eater's nest— puncturing all the other eggs in the nest and leaving only its own hatching alive. Over the following weeks, the host parents devotedly care for the hatchling whose mother murdered their offspring. This is brood parasitism, a phenomenon which is especially well-known among birds. Steve Rothstein digs into the evolutionary strategy. [Directed by Mauricio Bueno, Lucy Animation Studio, narrated by Jack Cutmore-Scott, music by Adam Alexander and Gavin Dodds].

👁Blood, concrete, and dynamite: Building the Hoover Dam
🧠Alex Gendler
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English

👣In the early 20th century, the US had expanded from coast to coast, but many cities in the southwest still lacked reliable water sources.

So the government decided to build a massive hydroelectric dam. Alex Gendler details the creation of the Hoover Dam.
