  • Animal Asia's Dr. Jill Robinson Gives Hope
    In this throwback episode, we highlight a conservation superstar, Dr. Jill Robinson. She heads Animals Asia’s team of over 300 enthusiastic staff. A hands-on leader, Dr. Robinson is involved in all major decision-making. She works with the vet and bear teams during rescues and health checks and advises closely on construction projects. She visits dog and cat markets and zoos and safari parks throughout China to document the abuse of animals and over the years has made countless visits to hospitals and homes for the elderly with her own and Animals Asia’s animal-therapy dogs. She writes her own blog, her own speeches and presentations, is a regular contributor to newspapers and magazines and a frequent guest on radio and TV shows. She has also co-written a children’s book about moon bears and co-written a number of scientific papers with Animals Asia’s vet teams. Jill founded Animals Asia in 1998 – five years after an encounter with a caged bear on a farm in southern China changed her life forever. Learning that bear bile could be replaced by herbs, she vowed to put an end to bear bile farming. Since then, Animals Asia has rescued over 530 bears in China and Vietnam. =========================================================== Another thank you to all our Patreon supporters.

  • The Rice's Whale Final Call
    Chris and Angie dive deep into the world of the Rice's whale, one of the most endangered whale species on Earth. The discussion begins with a comedic recap of technical difficulties faced by the hosts, transitioning into the critical situation of the Rice's whale, which lives year-round in the Gulf of Mexico with a population possibly as low as 33. Highlighting its unique habitat, vocalizations, and recent classification as a distinct species in 2021, the episode emphasizes the urgent conservation efforts needed. We explore the devastating impact of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill, which wiped out nearly a quarter of the population, and discuss other threats like ship strikes, noise pollution, and climate change.
