The Wasp That Brainwashed the Caterpillar: Evolution’s Most Unbelievable Solutions to Life’s Biggest Problems - Matt Simon

On a barren seafloor, the pearlfish swims into the safety of a sea cucumber’s anus. To find a meal, the female bolas spider releases pheromones that mimic a female moth, luring male moths into her sticky lasso web. The Glyptapanteles wasp injects a caterpillar with her young, which feed on the victim, erupt out of it, then mind-control the poor (and somehow still living) schmuck into protecting them from predators.
These are among the curious critters of The Wasp That Brainwashed the Caterpillar, a jaunt through evolution’s most unbelievable, most ingenious solutions to the problems of everyday life, from trying to get laid to finding food. Join Wired science writer Matt Simon as he introduces you to the creatures that have it figured out, the ones that joust with their mustaches or choke sharks to death with snot, all in a wild struggle to survive and, of course, find true love.

As always - Thank you so much for sharing!
Some of my favourite science subjects - microbiome, octopuses/-pi/-podes (still don’t know whats right) and of course parasitic life forms ;) …
Looking forward to listen to them. Didn’t had those on my readinglist - so also thanks for letting me/us know about them.
Happy Holidays (do you say that in English already or only a few days before Christmas?)
Anyway - THANKS ;)
