Imagine a world where conservation wasn't a concept because it was simply a way of life. Well, hundreds of years ago, in some African cultures, conserving nature was deeply ingrained in daily living. Our guest, Aiita Joshua Apamaku, a Wildlife Biologist and National Geographic Young Explorer, has found that stories, and cultural pillars from the Kibale Forest communities, were rich with insights about nature. This inspired Aiita's concept of Science Telling, which promotes traditional ways of life through storytelling, enhancing our understanding of nature and its ecosystems. In this episode, we explore Aiita’s work and the power of storytelling in conservation work. Oh, and good news, Aiita will be a speaker at WILD12!Learn more about WILD: www.wild.org Connect with Aiita: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aiita-joshua-apamaku-5a6a3a134/Hosted by Ausha.

Imagine immersing yourself in the depths of the ocean. You're submerged beneath the sea, thinking you're the great observer, there to witness what's happening. But then, you realize that everyone is watching you.That's precisely the experience Sylvia Earle, known as "Her Deepness" for her record-breaking untethered dives reaching 381 meters (1,250 feet), shared with us. She has spent her life as a tireless advocate for the oceans, being the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's first female Chief Scientist. It's been a wonderful moment for us to reposition humanity in the web of life. Sylvia's efforts to raise public awareness about our interconnectedness with marine ecosystems underscore the urgent need for humanity to treat all life with equality. So, let's embark on an exploration of the ocean's depths with Sylvia as we dive into wildlife conservation, the pivotal role of Indigenous Peoples as allies, captivating anecdotes from her missions, and much more.Learn more about WILD: www.wild.org Mission Blue: https://missionblue.org/Hosted by Ausha.

Ever wondered how human viruses often originate from wildlife? Take Avian Influenza, for instance. H5N1 now poses an existential threat to global biodiversity, having infected over 150 wild and domestic avian species worldwide, along with numerous mammalian species. And while it's a significant risk for biodiversity, it also presents a potential spillover risk for us. Today, we're joined by Chris Walzer, WCS Executive Director of Health, who will discuss what we can do to tackle this wildlife crisis and why it's crucial to consider the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health.Learn more about WILD: www.wild.org Hosted by Ausha.
