Tune in for the next Labside Chat with Rita Meta, associate professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, on Thursday, June 11, 2020, at 11:00 AM PDT, to explore the ecology and evolution of limbless or reduced-limb animals such as snakes, eels, and other eel-like vertebrates.

• How do limbless or reduced-limb animals, such as eels, consume their prey?
• What are pharyngeal jaws, and how do they help an eel eat?
