Rachel kicks off this week with a bizarre tale of a parasite that invades the nests of red ants, pretends to be their queen, works the ants to death, and eats their young all in a quest to become a beautiful butterfly.
Victoria takes us to Australia and asks the question, why are there so many poisonous animals there?
Kirk rounds out the episode with the strange story of how volcanoes may be changing the color of owls.
