NATURE | Excl. Podcast: What Females Want and Males Will Do

http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/what-females-want/introduction/828/?u... In this exclusive behind-the-scenes podcast, meet three researchers featured in "What Females Want and Males Will Do" who are looking for answers to some burning questions about sexual selection. Chadden Hunter spends time with a group of geladas, close relatives of baboons. Gail Patricelli camps out with sage grouses in the midst of courtship. Rebecca Safran hangs out on the farm with barn swallows. Cutting-edge technology and plain old hard work both play a role in the lives of these trailblazing scientists.

Part of the 28th season of the Peabody and Emmy award-winning series produced by Thirteen in association with WNET.ORG for PBS, "What Females Want and Males Will Do" airs over two Sundays, March 14 and 21, 2010 at 8 p.m. (check local listings). Major support provided by Canon U.S.A. Inc. For more information, visit http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/what-females-want/introduction/828/?u...
