Okay, it’s time to tackle the hard questions. We’re not talking about the meaning of life or whether the chicken came before the egg. We’re talking about farts. More precisely, we’re talking about which animals fart and why haven’t we thought more about that. Luckily, you don’t need go sniff-testing the animal kingdom to find out; you just need to buy Nick Caruso and Dani Rabaiotti’s new book, Does It Fart? The Definitive Field Guide to Animal Flatulence. The project started over a year ago, when zoologist Dani Rabaiotti’s brother asked her whether snakes fart. She didn’t know the answer. So began a quest to solve the mystery of animal flatulence. Not only will you discover whether or not 80 different animals fart, but you’ll uncover gems like why hyena farts are especially bad. If this isn’t already on order for your coffee table, we don’t know what’s wrong with you.
