• An Ice Age cold case, and a goanna goes to school.

  Your daily kids news podcast. An Ice Age Cold Case; Germany’s fluffy traffic jam; a goanna goes to school; and our Hall of Fame heroes. A 39,000-year-old woolly mammoth called Yuka may have been in serious trouble when he froze, and scientists just uncovered his stressed-out RNA to prove it! It’s the oldest RNA ever found and might help us peek into the everyday lives of extinct animals. In Nuremberg, Germany, hundreds of sheep strolled through the city like fluffy commuters! Every year, they hoof it 10km to their winter hangout, turning traffic into a real-life sheep jam. A giant goanna named Greg paid a surprise visit to a school office in Queensland! The staff stayed cool, called the snake catchers, and Greg got a comfy ride back to the bush. Racing star Oscar Piastri and surfing legend Layne Beachley stole the spotlight at the Sport Australia Hall of Fame Awards! For the full episode transcript, click here.
