And they bring together over 400 welfare experts for rescuing donkeys, shaping their behavior.

and collaborating with individual owners and communities.

They also perform life-saving surgical techniques and training of vets globally.

And the Donkey Sanctuary improves the lives of over 4 million donkeys worldwide every year.

So a donation will be going to them.

And thank you to sponsors of the show for making that donation possible.

Okay, so patrons can sign up via patreon.com slash ologies and submit questions before we record.

You can join for as little as a dollar a month and it supports the show.

So let's hear some questions starting with, oh, Fernando Lopez Haro says, Hi, first time question asker, Fernando Lopez Haro from Mexico.

Yeah, that makes tons of sense.

Luke Spaddy asked if you find a lot of donkeys in ancient texts, and it sounds like yes, you do.

Susan said,

And so this Fleming reaction looks like a donkey is baring its upper teeth.

And that word, Fleming, means to bear the upper teeth or to look spiteful.

But it helps the donkey push sense into the Romero nasal organ or Jacobson organ to figure out what it is they're smelling and what it all means.

And I've mentioned this organ before, like in the ethnocynology episode and gustatology episodes about domesticating dogs and the sense of taste.

Those are two different episodes.

And how I have a 13-year-old daughter, a gremlin, who is a dog, and she will chatter her teeth constantly.

concentrating whatever she tastes, something new she's trying to figure out.

So it's the same things.
