This episode of The Children's Hour is going to stink, as we learn all about skunks with the founder and director of The Dragoo Institute for the Betterment of Skunks and Skunk Reputations, Dr. Jerry Dragoo. We'll find out where skunks are found, why they smell, and how to avoid getting sprayed. Dr. Dragoo is a world renowned mephitologist, or biologist who studies skunks.
Plus Kids Crewmember, Evan Daitz has a review of the trilogy A Boy Called Bat, where Dr. Dragoo is a character. And the kids in the Extinction Diaries cover a giant spider that was thought to be extinct, but has been rediscovered.
