Episode #116: How Zoos Are Dealing with The Coronavirus Mar 26, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, I interview Andie Haugen, an animal trainer and educator from the Cincinnati Zoo. Andie discusses what the zoo is doing during the shutdown due to the Coronavirus. She covers how the animals are doing, the difficult measures zoos are facing during this time, and positive words of encouragement to those who have been laid off. She also goes into details on how the zoo is enriching their animals and taking advantage of an “empty zoo”. Andie also discusses AZA’s emergency economic relief plan and how zoos are trying to raise money for their animals.

Episode #109: Giraffes: A Silent Extinction Feb 12, 2020

Show notes

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Julian Fennessy from the Giraffe Conservation Foundation. Julian and his wife decided to start the GCF after realizing there wasn’t an organization solely focused on giraffes and their conservation. Today, there are fewer than 111,000 giraffe left in the wild. There are 4X as many elephants yet little is publicly known about the giraffe’s “silent extinction”. Topics include differences between the four giraffe species, interesting giraffe facts, and what YOU can do a home to help the world’s tallest mammal!
