Lucy Cooke – BITCH: a Revolutionary Guide to Sex, Evolution and the Female Animal
Wednesday 26 October, 5.45pm
Cathedral Lodge
Tickets £12 (Incl. £1.50 booking fee)
The female of the species is more deadlier (sic) than the male…. evolutionary biologist Lucy Cooke introduces us to a riotous cast of animals, and the scientists studying them, that are redefining what it means to be female. Mother, carer, the weaker sex? Think again! From albatrosses to meerkats, these creatures overturn outdated binary expectations of bodies, brains, biology and behaviour. Lucy’s Talk will change how you think – about sexuality in animals and also the very forces that shape evolution.
