  5. Hey, when you do these episodes, in addition to what makes it bizarre, could you please talk about some base stats such as if the animal is diurnal or nocturnal, what it eats and how it fits in the food web? For example, you talked about how the Mexican mole lizard can burrow but not why it would. Thank you.
