    I've been really into nature documentaries lately. Learning about animals is how a lot of kids first fell in love with science -- including me. Animals are intrinsically interesting to humans (they're alive like us!) but they open the door to exploring a world outside ourselves.

        If you don't have enough examples of non-human animals, it's easy to make wrong theories of how cognition, behavior, and biology "necessarily" work.

        When I was a teen I sort of absorbed by osmosis the idea that evolutionary biology was a "soft" science and that smart people studied molecular biology. I mean, it's just stories about animals, right? Kid stuff.

        I now think that's precisely wrong. "Stories about animals" are super important, because what if your lab experiment isn't actually a good model for what happens in living things in nature?!

        The credibility of "will this intervention in mice translate to humans?" depends *heavily* on comparative biology and evolutionary arguments.

        Nature is also our primary template for "weird beauty." Nature is bizarre -- but fun to watch. David Watts' weird science-fiction imaginings are directly inspired by his background as a marine biologist. We imagine aliens because we've seen animals.

        Any docs youd recommend in particular?

        David Attenborough's Life in Cold Blood was awesome. (Reptiles are REALLY different from us -- some determine offspring sex by temperature! -- but behaviorally complex. They have territoriality, fights, elaborate courtship.)

        I only really started appreciating evolutionary theory by watching Blue Planet and Planet Earth, that brought things into sharp relief, followed by reading Darwin’s Dangerous Idea.

        Interesting perspective. I was completely uninterested in animals growing up (and my impression was my culture was also) and it's only as an adult that I've found all the beauty. I guess I was lucky that I got to watch all those documentaries for the first time as an adult.
