    Sea Monsters Science Says Are Real

    What if the strangest creatures in history were even more terrifying than we imagine? How big could a prehistoric predator get, and what would happen if you came face-to-face with a giant, saber-toothed beast? From colossal birds with deadly beaks to a whale that ruled the ancient oceans, the past was filled with monsters that sound almost impossible. But just how unbelievable did prehistoric life really get?

    American Cheetah: Unveiling the Truth

    For decades, we've pictured miracinonyx, or the American cheetahs, as fleet-footed prairie hunters who chased down pronghorns and were among the fastest animals on Earth. Recent studies have shaken that belief to the core. Thanks to fossils found in rocky canyons and subarctic lands, and studies on their diet, we're beginning to get a clearer picture of what these majestic animals actually were. From apex predators to the planet's strangest creatures, Animalogic goes deep into the science, behavior, and biology of the animal kingdom, one species at a time.

    Reevaluating Threats to Monarch Butterflies

    The great monarch migration is one of the most impressive events in nature. A tiny butterfly flies thousands of miles from Canada and the Northern US to Mexico to overwinter. However, fewer monarchs are completing the trip. In this episode, we investigate the causes of these incomplete migrations to understand how to help monarchs.

    The Ice Age Giant: Giant Beaver
