A Special Episode Celebrating International Cheetah Day with Dr. Laurie Marker of the Cheetah Conservation Fund
Today, the Safari sits down for an interview with Dr. Laurie Marker to talk all things cheetah conservation. In her second appearance on the podcast, Dr. Marker goes into detail on how she developed some of the most impressive conservation strategies I've seen, how her role as a conservation celebrity conflicts with her own view of herself as a hard-working bush woman, how we can all help cheetahs, and so much more! EPISODE LINKS: cheetah.org @ccfcheetah on socials ROSSIFARI LINKS: rossifari.com Patreon.com/rossifari to support the pod@rossifari on socials @rossifaripod on TikTok TO BUY FAHLO BRACELETS, CLICK THIS LINK:https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=76524&awinaffid=2618592&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fmyfahlo.com%2FCode: ROSSIFARI20 to save 20%Nature DisturbedMother Nature is one weird ladyListen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

Can SAD Lamps Cause Joy? with Dr. Kerry Dore of The Millbrook School
Today, the Safari heads back to Trevor-Lovejoy Zoo to hang out with one of the teachers at the school there, Dr. Kerry Dore. This ethnoprimatologist and anthropologist is in charge of the independent research many students perform at the zoo, and our conversation ranges from her early career path to the work she does with the students at the zoo to all kinds of philosophical discussions in the zoo world. I really, really loved this episode, especially the second half of it.  EPISODE LINKS: @trevorzoo on socials https://www.millbrook.org/trevor-lovejoy-zoo-homeROSSIFARI LINKS: Rossifari.com Patreon.com/rossifari @rossifari on socials @rossifaripod on TikTokNature DisturbedMother Nature is one weird ladyListen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify
