Rossifari Podcast – Zoos, Aquariums, and Animal Conservation

The Rossifari Podcast brings my love of zoos, aquariums, rescues, and rehab facilities to you! Each episode features an interview with someone who works at one of these facilities. We talk about different species, individual animals, conservation efforts, nutrition…all kinds of stuff. This is a podcast suitable for all ages, but we will discuss topics like mating behaviors and euthanasia. If you’re a fan of zoos, or have ever wondered what exactly a zookeeper does, how aquariums manage to keep all that water so clean, or just want to hear a bunch of amazing stories about incredible animals, and the people that take care of them, this is the podcast for you! Check us out online at www.rossifari.com and on all social media platforms @rossifari. Support the show at patreon.com/rossifari. Check out the merch at rossifari.redbubble.com.

Today, the Safari heads to Tulsa, OK, to chat with Joe Barkowski of the Tulsa Zoo.

Show notes

Today, the Safari continues it's trip to the west coast with a stop at the St. Louis Aquarium! This is a new facility, opened in 2019 (and then closed for Covid in 2020), so this podcast has a lot of cool information about designing and opening a new aquarium. My guest, Erin Clark, also brings a wealth of cool knowledge and experience from her life before St. Louis, including when she lived in Dubai! You'll hear about fish, sharks, sea turtles, a tamandua, and Lord Stanley (a blue lobster with a great story)!

Dateline: February 11, 2022: Zoo News is back with a roundup of the news from the worlds of zoos and conservation!

We spend the rest of the episode doing a deep dive into a piece of legislation currently before the Senate that could have major implications on zoos, aquariums, the wildlife conservation trade, the legal pet trade, and more. It's like Schoolhouse Rocks for adults, and with far more terrifying potential consequences. And less singing. So much less singing.
