This is a for-kids-(and adults)-by-kids-(and chickadees) animal podcast. In every regular episode, your host, Devon, and podcast-overthrowal-plotting chickadee co-hosts, Chet and Cap, will dive into all the facts about one species of animal with jokes, fun facts, and quizzes along the way. Every third-ish episode is our game show, Animalia Fake!, in which there are three rounds with four outrageous animal facts; one of those facts is so outrageous it’s an Animalia Fake (it’s not true), and you have to guess which it is.
You can send in questions, comments, episode suggestions, or just a “hello” to animals@kapods.org, and you can learn more at https://kapods.org/animals. So what are you waiting for? Let’s explore this amazing Kingdom: Animalia.
New episodes every 1–2 months.

Amy Yee is a volunteer at Mickaboo Companion Bird Rescue (where Devon adopted Budgly and Rex). She has two male budgies named Queechee and Coco and a female Indian Ringneck named Juniper.
Cynthia Large is an Oakland based artist and the co-director of Palomacy Pigeon & Dove Adoptions. She loves all animals, especially cats, birds, spiders and insects. She and her daughter rescue “stringfoot” pigeons as a hobby, and in 2017 they were chosen by a self-rescuing young King pigeon. The whole family has since gone down the rabbit hole of learning about, and advocating for, pigeons as companion animals.
