Informative and entertaining!

A very quick read. Informative and entertaining! Narration is on point and hilarious at times. Some parts really cracked me up ;)

I’d recommend googling images of the animals while listening about them for a little more holistic experience.

Learnt a little strange thing about Australia. Also, I had no idea a pink fairy armadillo exists. Very cute and weird at the same time :-/

Entertaining & informative

Part David Attenborough, part Monty Python. Very British fun. If you saw Sue Perkins on GBBO then expect more of the same, but about animals instead of cake. I loved it.

Hilarious

Bit vulgar in a few spots but hilarious and interesting. Only reason for a 4 was that I had to click into each one separately.

Amazing and fun

A practical example that knowledge can be served in delicious small bites. The hilarious comments and effects made real characters of the animals/ subjects.
The creativity and effort placed in this work is an A+
I wish to see the same quality in other science fields (e.g. medicine/ physicals/ math)!

A fun series

I really enjoyed all the episodes of this series. Sue Perkins is a great narrator, and the content is fun and funny. I just wish they were packaged as chapters of a single book, rather than as individual volumes... would make the full series easier to listen to.
