The article "Why Dogs Eat Grass (and Sometimes Poop): Strange but True!" from BBC's Science Focus explores the curious reasons behind dogs eating grass and poop. While some theories suggest anxiety, boredom, or a need for attention, others link it to diet or instinct. Canine behavior expert Dr. Emily Blackwell sheds light on these habits and how our reactions may unintentionally encourage them.
In Playful Prairie Dog Pups witness prairie dog pups who explore and play whilst sentinels keep watch. Danger in the form of an American badger approaches, but a burrowing owl, who also has young to protect, defends its territory. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Seven Worlds, One Planet, a series featuring remarkable animal behavior from all seven continents.
