      I think it’s important for us researchers to see the kind of questions you younglings are interested in getting answered and also to get a feel for how you view science as a whole!

      It’s great to see what sorts of questions students have both for us scientists as for your own teacher! I teach students at university, but it is great to see what occupies the minds of students in highschool! I hope that by answering as many questions as I can, I can give you an idea of what sort of work I do (and you may be able to do), what my work is like and give you answers to questions you have about animal their behaviours. Hopefully you’ll all become very interested in animals behaviour and perhaps we’re able to give you a little inspiration to find out more about it!!
