Hey, everyone.
Emily Kwong here with producer Hannah Chin.
Hey, Emily.
You are listening to Shorewave, the science podcast from NPR.
Okay, short wavers, once again, we are on a nature quest.
This is our monthly segment bringing you a question from a fellow short waver who's paying attention to their local environment and how it's changing.
So this one, it's like a peacock lizard.
It has this pink
throat sack hanging from his little lizard head.
Then I'm looking at, woo, I really like this.
It's a salamander with like an electric blue tail.
He identified these animals very quickly.
I guess this is what he does for a living.
But could he tell you anything else about them or why they might be populating Shabnam's yard?
Yeah, he did.
But Shabnam also said she's seen increasingly more of these critters.
So did Daniel tell you why that might be?
Yeah, I asked him that too.
So even a pool a block away could be contributing to what Shabnam is seeing in her yard.
