In this episode, I speak with naturalist John Pollpeter. For 23 years, he has worked at the Woodlands Nature Station, a nature center in Kentucky, home to over 55 native species. Animals he works with include the critically endangered Red Wolf, one of the rarest carnivores on the planet. John is also blind, and discusses his journey and how he turned his disability, into an opportunity traveling the world. Other topics include backyard wildlife, bats, and how to live with venomous snakes!

In this episode, we discuss ‘Cocaine Hippos’ AKA the invasive hippos in South America that escaped from drug lord Pablo Escobar’s private zoo. He started out with four, now there are over 100 invasive hippos in South America. Joining me on the show to discuss these ‘Cocaine Hippos’ is scientist, Dr. Jonathan Shurin. He’s from the Section of Ecology, Behavior and Evolution at the University of California. Jonathan has been studying the ecological impact of these hippos and gives us some insight on these alien inhabitants!

In this episode, I interview former SeaWorld Killer Whale Trainer and author of “Killing Keiko: The True Story of Free Willy’s Return to the Wild”, Mark Simmons. Mark has been working with and training marine mammals for 30 years. Mark discusses what it was like training Killer Whales at SeaWorld, including “Tilikum”, the whale who killed trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2010. He also discusses the documentary “Blackfish” and what the filmmakers left out. Mark then dives into his experience assisting with the “Keiko Project”, a failed attempt at trying to return ‘Free Willy’ whale “Keiko” back to the wild.

Order Mark’s book “Killing Keiko: The True Story of Free Willy’s Return to the Wild”
