Ashley Thompson and Dan Novak host the Learning English show.
First, Dan reports on an urgent effort to save sick coral reefs near the Florida Keys. The sea animals are suffering from bleaching events.
Then, Gregory Stachel reports about an exciting fossil finding. Researchers say it shows that an ancient sea reptile was probably a "filter-feeder" similar to modern baleen whales.
Next up is the LE Science & Technology Report. Bryan Lynn has a report on another fossil finding. Scientists in Peru studied bones dating back 39 million years. They say the large fossils are the remains of the heaviest animal in Earth’s history. Later, he joins Ashley in the studio to answer some more questions about the ancient animal.
And we close the show with another report in the LE series America's National Parks. Today, Ashley takes us to the southern of Florida for a visit to the seven small islands that make up Dry Tortugas National Park.
