Episode notes
We all had a phase where we said we’d be zoologist, but our guest today ACTUALLY followed through. Jules Howard is a real life zoologist and the author of Wonderdog: The Science of Dogs and Their Unique Friendship with Humans! We chat about Jules’ dog Ozzy, learn about the original Frog Hotline, and discuss the very special relationship between dogs and humans! Plus, we discuss the alternate reality we all dream of: one where humans evolved to have whiskers. Tune in!

About the show
Comfort Creatures is a show for people who prefer their friends to have paws instead of hands! Every week, Alexis and Ella talk to guests about their pets or creatures that give them comfort, discuss their favorite fictional critters, learn about pets in history, and discover differences between pet ownership across the pond. Whether you have a giant sloth, two siamese skinks, or just know way too much about unicorns, every animal friend is welcome on Comfort Creatures!
