Much Cooler than the Name Implies: The Yuckiest Site on the Internet
September 10, 2007
What is poop made of? What is this gunk in my ears? How do I make my stomach gurgle?The answers to these and other of life’s big questions can be found at The Yuckiest Site on the Internet, a site from the Discovery Channel that’s exactly what it sounds like, and I mean that in a good way.
Wendell, a cartoon worm/muckraking (literally) journalist is your guide through science’s disgusting underbelly. The Yuckiest Site has lots of great features such as “Your Gross & Cool Body” and “Roach World” that give kids the skinny about stuff they usually shouldn’t bring up in mixed company. One of the best aspects of the site is that it explains all the gross stuff in a scientific, demystifying manner that will hopefully spare you a year of listening to your students telling poop jokes. –BILL FERRIS
