He discusses his early beginnings and what led him to reptiles, including how he got his first 14 ft. Reticulated Python at the age of 13! He then discusses how he founded his pet store, Prehistoric Pets, over 30 years ago and what it takes to run it today. Other topics include snake breeding, ligers, Komodo Island, and Jay’s favorite reptile species!

Episode #105: Forest Elephants

Daniella.JPG

In this episode, I’m joined by “elephantologist”, Daniella E. Chusyd from Indiana University. Daniella studies the rare Forest Elephant found in central/western Africa. She begins by discussing her early work in Tanzania helping farmers protect their crops from elephants by using “beehive fences” and hot chili peppers. She then goes into the differences between Forest Elephants and Savanna Elephants and why they should be considered a separate species. She then discusses her upcoming work in Africa and gives words of advice for anyone wanting to follow their passion and dreams.
