Trace a year in the life of a platypus, and explore how the animal’s unique adaptations ensure its survival. -- Waddling along the parched Australian earth, a female platypus is searching for fresh water.

Gilad Bino traces a year in the life of a platypus, and explores the unique adaptations that ensure this ancient species' survival. Lesson by Gilad Bino, directed by Petya Zlateva, Compote Collective.

Episode What actually triggered the Irish Potato Famine - Stephanie Honchell Smith Cover

What actually triggered the Irish Potato Famine - Stephanie Honchell Smith

Dig into what caused the Irish potato famine, and explore how the UK government’s response turned the crisis into a catastrophe. -- For over 200 years, potatoes thrived in Ireland; roughly half the country’s residents lived almost entirely on potatoes. But when harvesting began in 1845, farmers found their potatoes blackened and shriveled. While this failed harvest created a crisis, the government’s response turned it into a national catastrophe. Stephanie Honchell Smith digs into Ireland's Great Famine. Lesson by Stephanie Honchell Smith, directed by Denys Spolitak.
