Four animals: three real, one fake. Which are real, and which is just a trick?
______________________
We’re combining our late April Fools episode with our late Halloween special. Today your host, Devon, and co-hosts, Chet and Cap, will talk about four species of animal: the Leapfrog Crab, Chinese Muntjac, Red-lipped Batfish, and Emerald Cockroach Wasp—one of which is fake, and you’ll have to guess.
If you think you know which one’s the fake, send in your guesses by filling out the form linked below. Listen through to the end of the episode to find out what the prize will be! Make sure to submit your top two guesses with the link below by the end of Friday, January 16th (PST), because I’ll release the reveal the following weekend. And be sure NOT to believe any of the facts on today’s episode until you know which animal is fake. Happy very late Halloween and even later April Fools’!

Sorry about the additional delays, everyone. I’m on winter break, and I would have gotten it out sooner, but I got a cold, which meant rest and an un-podcast-worthy voice. I’m almost done with the script, so it should be out very soon! To watch my progress on the episode precisely, check this Google Doc.
