What is a Species?
from A Little Greener Hosted by A Little Greener
What is a species? You probably thought you learned this in middle school science class, but we're here to tell you the answer is more complicated than it seems! Join Casey and Sara for a discussion on how, why, and by whom decisions on species are made. Resources for this episode: A Few Bad Scientists are Threatening to Topple Taxonomy: Smithsonian magazine article covering Raymond Hoser. NOTE: The article states he has named over 800 taxa, not species, as we stated in the episode. This could mean species or genera, or other category--still a lot of naming! IUCN Red List
