These fascinating boneless animals are well known for their appearance that is similar to a breakfast item. They are also from 2 completely different families.

With over 31 species from around the world, some have the distinct red markings on their back while others have them on their belly! While their venom is quite potent, these spiders are very reluctant to bite and are quite shy.

A strange fossil where a Thrinaxodon (protomammal) and a Broomistega (salamander like amphibian) are balled up together in a burrow made by the protomammal. There was heavy storm happening leading up to the fossil as the world was ending for this unlikely pair. Were they fighting to the death as the world was ending or were these two animals taking comfort in each other's presence? As the waters outside were on the rise, we will likely never know but it's fun to imagine.

This may be one of the most unique patterned animals we've featured on the show, with it's zebra striped legs and its giraffe like neck, it's shocking to find out just how elusive these unique looking creatures are.

These little guys are known for both their amazing ability to create some of the biggest and most complex nest design on the planet and for having some of the strongest toxins to ever form in the animal kingdom.

Not only are these the largest turtle species and one of the largest living reptiles in the world, it is also the last living member of an ancient order that may explain how giant prehistoric marine reptiles survived. They dive to depths greater than any other reptile and unlike almost all reptiles, while not being truly warm blooded, they are able to maintain a stable body temperature.

Not only are these aquatic masters of electric manipulation, they are also very good talkers and listeners. Make sure you give these guys a wide berth in the dry season and remember they are not eels.....

These terribly misunderstood creatures are actually saving lives. While they do drink a little blood from preferred prey animals, like mammals. Their saliva is being incorporated into all kinds of life saving medicines.

The largest non-island tortoise in the entire world, the Sulcata Tortoise is definitely not a pet for everyone. These living bulldozers can remove a toilet from a floor and can borrow out of a locked bathroom with ease.

The largest land carnivore still alive today. Their size and predatory prowess does not put them out of needing our protection.

This mighty, ground-dwelling insect not only is famous for its solar power abilities, but its venom is also being researched as a powerful medicine.

These powerful creatures came in sizes from raccoon to polar bear and they were the apex predators of their day. They share reptilian and mammalian traits and ruled the world in the Permian age.

The Stellar Sea Eagle is one of the biggest eagle's on the planet. These massive aerial predators will tackle anything for food or territory, like golden eagles, grizzly bears, and even small planes. These birds are incredibly hard to study due to being a circumnavigating species.

These highly venomous marine reptiles have an undeserved reputation as being dangerous for extremely potent venom but are actually extremely curious and docile animals. Remember, next time you see an Olive Sea Snake, just redirect it and you'll both have a good time.

These amazing animals are on the list again for their famous reputation for being the saving Angels of the Oceans. They have been recorded saving stingrays, seals, other whales and even people from predators but especially the orca!

This freaky Cave Goat had forward faced eyes armed with a beak-like toothed mouth. These extinct animals also have evidence of being cold blooded!

These colorful little invertebrates get their namesake from their likeness to Christmas trees! While these guys have no dedicated research organization and no IUCN rating, they are in desperate need of recognition, research, and support. Merry Christmas everyone!

ut these fast-paced predators!

Peaceful Mr. E and Jay take a minute to review all the new species discovered in the previous year, from the fastest rotating spiders to the legless lizard that will knock your socks off.

Freaky Fauna Friday

https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-fauna-friday/id1665480528

While these squid may not be as large as their truly colossal cousins, they definitely make up for it with their extremely aggressive attitude.

The world's largest Pinniped! These guys are known for their affinity for the open ocean, the depths they dive, and their super long migration routes. Be on the lookout for these titans of the ocean.

These animals are one of the few megafaunas that are not only surviving but thriving on the North American continent. With their adaptable diet and fast reproductive rates, these animals are surely here to stay.

The world's smallest marsupial and one of the worlds smallest mammals. Thank you to Elise for picking this famous Freaky Fauna!

These beautiful shell-less snails are a must see for any ocean going explorer. But don't let their beauty fool you, for they are deadly predators to their chosen adversary the sea butterfly.

These amazing mollusks are not only fascinating filter feeders but are also used as water quality indicators and put on quite a dance show to lure in unsuspecting fish.

On this special Bigfoot Jamboree week we look into Gigantopithecus, an animal that many Bigfoot researchers say could actually be the hairy man himself. But after this episode you will see this animal could dwarf a Bigfoot.

These amazing little animals are survivors and fast breeder, but they are a bad sign in your home!

These mammals are endemic to Madagascar, they are the only mammals to use stridulation to communicate with each other, which is another form of echolocation. They can reproduce in the same season they are born.

How advanced is the communication abilities of the Humpback Whale? Your about to find out!

These tiny, indestructible beings are the foundation of complex life, the builders of environments, and have their own phylum slice in the pie of life.

These fascinating but somewhat annoying insects have taken over most of the temperate and warm climates on the planet. Including one of the supersized species that get as large as your finger.

What do you think of when you smell buttered popcorn? I think of the pee soaked Binturong, more commonly known as the Bearcat! This unique ancient creature is the last of its kind and is full of surprises. So sit back and relax and enjoy this episode of Freaky Fauna Friday

Not only are these true monsters of the woods powerful but they can also be very intelligent. Be careful when you're in their territory because they are famous for starting to eat you while you're still alive.

The California Condor, while it may not have the largest wingspan, it is still one of the heaviest birds soaring through our skies. Unlike most other avian scavengers, these animals possess a neat trick where they can carry chunks or pieces of large animal carcasses back to their nesting sites.

The green anaconda is the largest snake in the world when measured by weight, and unlike their movie reputation, they are much more docile and calculated as a predator.

This week we cover the Velvet Worm, this creature is the true embodiment of Freaky Fauna! From being 500 million years old to being one of the only invertebrates with a complex social structure and being plain ol gosh darn adorable.

A beast from Argentina, this massive extinct creature belongs to one of the most successful groups of animals on the planet, the sauropods.

On this episode we discuss the garden sea slug which was thought, like other animals, to eat algae and then incorporate it into their skin to do photosynthesis but due to new studies it is thought to be cloning the DNA and incorporating it into their own cells.

This animal has been messing with paleontologists since its first discovery and the loss of the first known fossil in a bombing during World War 2.

This is one shell of a creature, the Loggerhead, also known as the Alligator Snapping Turtle has a bite force that other worldly. Make sure you get a full count of your fingers and toes after the conclusion of this episode.

Not only are these birds basically living dinosaurs, but they also lay gigantic eggs, are great pets, and are the only animal to ever win a national war.

While they don't matter to many outside ecosystems, these flies show the versatility and ingenuity of life being able to inhabit every space on the planet. "Life finds a way."

These guys are the masters of eating ants and termites. They also use their massive meaty mitts and claws to tear into termite mounds that can sometimes be as hard as concrete.

From being so heavily armored that tigers don't care about them to being the most trafficked animal in the world, this week we discuss the Pangolin.

Meat honey is on the menu for these amazing little creatures. Their hives look like they're straight out of something from stranger things!

This episode we dive into what is currently the largest documented Salamander in North America. Even though these snot otters are mighty, they still need your protection.

Trinity Alps Giant Salamander Expedition Kickstarter:

Trinity Alps Giant Salamander Expedition by Cryptids of the corn — Kickstarter

This episode is all about the amazingly colorful and impressive Fire Salamander!

We go into the new year with a review of newly discovered species and rediscovered species from 2024.

P.S. there were a lot frogs.

On this ribbiting episode we discuss the giant of all frogs, the Goliath Bullfrog. Even though this is a titanic creature, it cannot avoid the threats of pollution and habitat degradation.

Suggested by listener Mady, these little haymakers are known for their vast ability to store food and for yelling. Just make sure you don't call them a rodent!

A might frigid and the last member of a dynasty of giants who called the artic their home. One of their famous abilities is to shut off heat to their external limbs.

These delectable little monsters are natures natural gushers. Besides being delicious, they have been so successful they have conquered every continent besides Antartica.

These crazy little critters are an afront to the rules of biological science. These creatures have figured out some way to remain truly immortal and science can't seem to figure it out.

Check out these fast-paced predators!

These little newts have so many freaky abilities and are often referred to as wolverine newts. They love to wrestle, and they have cute duck faces.

There are over 108 species of Peacock Spider. Not only are these spiders known for their elaborate colors but are also quite amazing dancers as well.

This amazing little bird is one of the oldest known on the planet and lays eggs the size of Emu eggs!

While known as Earth's happiest mammal and their willingness to throw their kids at predators, this episode you'll find out both of these assumptions aren't quite right.

This week we tackle the firefly squid, also known as the firefly of the sea. These groovy cephalopods are known for getting down to the flashing lights of a disco ball, except they make the flashing light themselves.

Often mistaken for their very not related cousin the Mantis Shrimp, Pistol Shrimp pack a punch of their very own. Not only do these little animals produce temperatures almost as hot as the surface of the sun and plasma, they also are very social and symbiotic little creatures.

The Great and Peaceful Mr. E and Jay here to thank you for supporting our show. We are taking a break this week so remember to get outside, breath fresh air, watch the sunrise, detox your body, drink clean water, and compliment a stranger.

This week we take a swim with the Blue Whales, Earths largest animals ever discovered!

These fearsome cat-looking creatures are actually more closely related to hyenas and mongooses. While not being the biggest apex predators ever, these might animals spark fear in the heart of all lemurs.

Mr. E is often asked what the deadliest snake in the world is, and it's a hard question for him to answer. On this episode we take a look at one of the top contenders, the Inland Taipan. While this snake is known for being secretive, shy, and reluctant to bite, it also has some of the most potent venom of any snake on the planet!

We had a lot happen this week and where not able to get a FFF out to you, we apologize, and we will be back next week~!

This amazing cephalopod had mastered mimicry to the point where is scares off its predators!

One of the largest fish of all time, ruled the oceans for millennia. This week we discuss their supremacy and supposed downfall.

This turtle was discovered by and named after Bob and Steve Irwin! This turtle would most likely be extinct without these 2 amazing men and the continued stewardship of Robert Jr.

These big-mouthed fish are notorious for biting off exactly how much they can chew. Be on the lookout for these deep-sea eating champions

We start with the best fish in the world, the bowfin!

These incredibly rare tiny whales are the tiniest member of the sperm whale family. We know very little about these guys whether they are solitary hunters or if they travel in schools of thousands.

Hubbs Beaked Whales and their entire family are some the strangest cetaceans to ever exist. Whales with tusks! What's weirder than that?

These are some of the largest gliding mammals that exist. They are known to be very secretive, so when they are seen they are mistaken for little aliens or some other cryptid. Also, they have gliding membranes inside out in order to poop, and sometimes they get stuck.

Tapirs are found in Central and South America, as well as Malaysia. Tapirs are the last lineage of ancient order of mammals that's existed since the extinction of the dinosaurs, so lets show Tapirs some love on this episode of Freaky Fauna Friday!

Not only are these giant rodents known for being big aquatic buses and being extremely friendly, but they are also quite tasty, and the Pope classified them as a fish.

Don't let this little blue sea slug's dazzling blue color and size fool you, their venom packs quite the punch.

While Bob is not quite flora or fauna, this humongous honey fungus makes a special appearance on this episode of Freaky Fauna Friday!

Could this smelly animal be the last dinosaur? Born with claws and having a stomach closer to a cow than any other birds these animals' baffle the world!

The mean, not green, tick eating machine. Whether playing dead or hissing at you, these freaky fun little guys are natures pest control. They may look scary, but they are nearly harmless. Mama said they got all them teeth but they can't really hurt ya. If you're not an opossum fan, maybe after this episode you will change your perspective.

This episode is about a man who brought back Puffins to the United States through unconventional means, despite the ridicule of other scientists, it worked!

These popular creatures are one of the most owned amphibians as pets but are officially extinct in the wild. They have been used in genetic labs to study diseases like Alzheimer's and have had jellyfish genes inserted into them to make them glow in the dark. These guys are the masters of regeneration able to regrow organs, limbs, and even parts of their brains and spinal cords. Join us on the salamander special episode of Freaky Fauna Friday.

This episode we take a look at the relationship between the Narrow Mouth Frog and the Spiders that protect them as the Frogs protect the Spiders eggs. This phenomenon takes place all around the world. Remember to find joy in the little things in life. It's not about the destination, it's about the journey.

So get your swimming trunks and your boxing gloves out on this episode of Freaky Fauna Friday!

750-degree water with iron sulfide in the water? Yes Please!!

This firetruck red mollusk is able to dazzle you with a bioluminescence light show that looks like lightning stretching across the sky.

This odd-shaped anomaly is a carnivorous sponge that preys upon such masterful animals, such as, shrimp, krill, and even fish eggs.

Not one but 2 amazing discoveries have happened... the alien like strawberry feather star was recently discovered off the coast of Antarctica and maybe great signs of Antarctic biodiversity under the ice. On the flipside in the deserts of Peru, was recently discovered the largest animal ever to exist, the Colossal Cetacean. This animal is pushing the boundaries of what we understand is possible.

On this episode Mr. E and Emily discuss the Dumbo Octopus that is unlike any other octopus that you may know.
