| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone, welcome back to relax with animal facts. I am Steph Wolf, and today I am going to be |
| 0:13.9 | learning with you about our furry, scaly, or possibly even slimy friends. And in today's case, it is definitely going to be a furry |
| 0:24.2 | friend of ours because we are covering the oh so wonderful shrew. This is a very special |
| 0:33.4 | listener episode dedicated to Bella who wrote in and requested this wonderful creature. |
| 0:40.2 | Thank you, Bella, for writing in, and I hope you enjoy your very own episode. |
| 0:45.4 | For how to request your animal and your own episode, as well as which resources were used for |
| 0:51.0 | this episode, all of that information is in the show notes or the description, |
| 0:55.4 | but it will also be covered at the very end of the episode. For those of you that love the |
| 1:00.7 | Relax with Animal Facts podcast and would like more of it, there are exclusive episodes that are |
| 1:06.4 | uploaded to Patreon at patreon.com slash relax with animal facts. And just one quick announcement before we |
| 1:14.2 | hop into our episode, I want to welcome Haley to the Relax with Animal Facts team. Haley is going to be |
| 1:22.4 | writing articles for Relax with Animal Facts under the articles section, and those articles will be starting |
| 1:29.3 | up very soon. And now we are going to begin to slow down just a little bit. As always, there |
| 1:36.4 | are two things that I must ask of you. In this case, we are not diving into the sea, and so we |
| 1:43.2 | can leave our scuba gear to the side. |
| 1:45.7 | But I ask that your shoes are on and tied on, double-knotted, because today we are going |
| 1:52.3 | to be trekking into some forests. The second and maybe more important thing is for you to do |
| 1:59.2 | your best Jello impersonation. We all carry tension in different |
| 2:03.9 | ways. For one of you it might be in your head, for another it might be in your shoulders. We all differ in |
| 2:11.0 | this way, but my exhortation to each and every one of you is the same. We do not really need any of that tension where we are going. |
| 2:20.7 | So do your best to relax your body and impersonate that piece of jello |
| 2:26.2 | and allow your mind to wander and journey with me into this temperate forest in Croatia where the shrew resides. |
