How Do Zoos Prepare For Hurricanes?

In this special edition episode, I chat with Zoo Miami Spokesperson and Communication Director, Ron Magill. Ron has been working at Zoo Miami for over 40 years and has seen his fair share of natural disasters. In the wake of Hurricane Ida and recent news of Hurricane Larry, the question needs to be asked…How Do Zoos Prepare For Natural Disasters like Hurricanes? Ron shares his insight and recalls when Zoo Miami was hit by Hurricane Andrew in 1992. He relives the terrifying time and talks about what they learned and how the zoo as a whole could be more prepared for future disasters. This is a MUST LISTEN for any animal care keeper preparing for a natural disaster!

In this episode, I interview Aquatic Biologist and Executive Director of the Save The Manatee Club, Patrick Rose. Patrick talks about Florida’s manatees and why they are currently in trouble. Topics include sea grass loss, swimming with manatees, manatees in zoos, and why manatees truly are the “canaries in the coal mine”.

Join us for the after-show where Patrick talks about manatees interacting with alligators!

In this episode, I sit-down with “Venom Doc” Dr. Bryan Fry from the University of Queensland. We talk Komodo Dragons and other venomous lizards. Be prepared to have your MIND-BLOWN! Everything you’ve been told about Komodo Dragons has been FALSE. Here’s a hint: They don’t use harmful bacteria to kill their prey! Bryan talks about his team’s findings and MORE! This is a very exciting show!

In this episode, I sit-down with the co-founder of the Crocodile Research Coalition (CRC), Dr. Marisa Tellez. Based in Belize, Marisa founded the CRC to help change the perception of crocodiles in Belize and help conserve them. Marisa talks about the two species of crocodile found in Belize, the American and Morelet’s Crocodile. She talks about her conservation work, close calls, crocodile cannibalism, and why we all need to learn to LOVE crocodiles!

In the PATRON-ONLY after show, she talks about a crocodile found in a toilet AND how to escape a crocodile attack!
