In this episode, we discover the hard-wiring in our brains that reach across species, and how our tears into adulthood make us distinctively human.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>We often think of the ocean as a quiet, peaceful place, filled with animals that don't make much noise. So when Christophe Haubursin from Vox went diving in the ocean for the first time, he was surprised at how rich the soundscape was: he could hear fish nibbling on coral and squid swimming. But more than anything, he could almost always hear the hum of a boat engine. It's part of a big problem in the ocean right now — ship noise has doubled every decade since 1970, wreaking havoc on marine life. <br /> <br /> This video was made in collaboration with <a href= "http://www.20k.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twenty Thousand Hertz</a>, a podcast that dives deep into all kinds of stories about sound.
