KING OF THE JUNGLE: Behind The Scenes at a Big Cat Sanctuary 🦁🐯

It’s time for another trip around the solar system on the BIGGER and BETTER Science Weekly!

In this episode of the Fun Kids Science Weekly, we answer YOUR questions, have scientists battle it out to determine which science is the best, and this week we’re on the hunt for the most dangerous food in the world!

First up in Science in the News, we blast into the future with a story about AI that could one day run on the same energy that powers the sun! Then, we dive under the waves to discover how a tropical sea slug has turned up in UK waters, showing how warmer seas are changing ocean life. And finally, we step into the world of creepy crawlies as Dr Joana Meier from Cambridge University uncovers the mystery of nature’s dancing spiders!

Then, we answer your questions! Anthony wants to know why copper wire glows when it gets hot, and biologist Elaine Holmes reveals what the most dangerous food in the world really is.

In Dangerous Dan, we’re learning all about the venomous Brazilian yellow scorpion.

And in Battle of the Sciences, Aaron Whitnall from The Big Cat Sanctuary joins Dan to share what it really takes to become a zookeeper working with lions.

What do we learn about?
· How AI could one day use the sun’s energy to power the world
· Why tropical sea slugs are showing up in the UK
· The mystery of dancing spiders
· What the most dangerous food in the world is
· The deadly Brazilian yellow scorpion
· And in Battle of the Sciences... the amazing world of big cats!

All on this week’s episode of Science Weekly!
