On today's show Jack is joined by Lynn Mento, the CEO of Conservation Nation! She is here to discuss the importance of diversifying the field of conservation. The pair also talk about how Conservation Nation are helping to do this by elevating under-represented voices, inspiring the next generation, and providing educational opportunities!
On top of that, Jack and Lynn also chat about some of the projects which Conservation Nation support with their grants. These include a wolf conservation project in Yellowstone National Park; a project involving bee fences and elephants; and The Giant Armadillo Conservation Project!
Finally, the duo discuss Lynn’s favourite animal - the somewhat frightening, but fabulous, Cassowary!
