Dig into the breeding program that saved Takhi horses from extinction, and explore the role of zoos in animal conservation. -- For thousands of years, native Takhi horses roamed the steppes of Central Asia. But by the late 1960s, their extinction seemed inevitable. To prevent this, scientists and zoos started a breeding program and soon began releasing new generations of Asia's ancient wild horse back into their native habitat. Nigel Rothfels explains the twists and turns of this complicated conservation effort. Lesson by Nigel Rothfels, directed by Anna Benner.

Get to know the parasite known as the tongue-eating louse, which eats the tongue of a fish and then takes its place permanently. -- The infamous tongue-eating louse is one of nearly 400 species belonging to a family of fish parasites. Some latch onto their host’s head, others suck blood from fish gills, and others still burrow into fish flesh. But the Cymothoa exigua goes specifically for fish tongues. How do these parasites do it, and why? Niko Zlotnik explores the strategies tongue biters use to find a fish to call home.
