You're probably aware of lots of the things we take from animals, but for centuries, humans have been sneaking animal secretions into a bunch of things you probably didn't know about, like your Easter candy, your Mom's perfume, and even that cigarette you probably shouldn't be smoking. We also continue to enjoy delicacies that are only made possible because they come out of some animals' mouths, glands, and butts...
So, how many secretions have you slathered on or ingested lately? First you'll have to find out what they are and how they get into your body, which is what Hank will be telling you about in this episode of SciShow. Hooray!
