Welcome to the final episode of ‘Songs of the Skies’! Today I am joined by Mark Boden and Fennella Humphries to discuss 'Chasing Sunlight'! This incredible piece of music tells the story of the Arctic Tern, and how it takes part in one of natures greatest and most epic quests!
First, we will hear about Mark’s time learning from these birds on the Isle of May and Anglesey, and how that translated into song. Then Fenella will explain how she brought that music to life!
Since this is the last episode of the series I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone on the Sinfonia Cymru team who invited me to take part in this event, it was an absolute honour.

It is time for the third episode of 'Songs of the Skies'! Today, I am joined by Lynn Henderson and Isha Crichlow, two of the amazing musicians from Sinfonia Cymru. They are here to discuss the personal significance of bringing their loves of nature and music together. Alongside this, they also produced a lot of the visuals which were displayed behind the performers at the concert, so we are going to hear about how they really captured the magic and excitement of nature on film.

Welcome back to ‘Songs of the Skies’, our series celebrating the intersection of music and conservation! Today I am joined by Joy Becker and Darren Gallacher to discuss their piece, 'Hope is the Thing with Feathers'.
Sharing its name with the Emily Dickinson Poem, this performance told the stories of birds in a really exciting, emotive, and hopeful way that left the audience in awe. We are going to explore where the inspiration for this piece came from, why telling this story was so important to them and how you even begin to curate and inspire something as important as hope!

Welcome to ‘Songs of the Skies’! For those of you who don’t know, I was recently invited to Cardiff to host ‘Songs of the Skies’, a concert put on by Sinfonia Cymru. This 60 minute performance showcased 3 incredible pieces of music, all inspired by nature and wildlife. In this series, I will be taking you behind the scenes of that concert and exploring how composers and musicians bring bird song to the stage.
In this first episode, I am joined by Caroline Tress, the Chief Executive of Sinfonia Cymru. She will discuss where the inspiration for the event came from, how sinfonia cymru put everything together and the importance of making music accessible and to all.

Welcome to the 100th Episode of Pangolin: The Conservation Podcast! I cannot believe that we are finally here, and so we are going to spend today celebrating. Firstly, we are going to look back at the last 4 years and reflect on what it means to be here. Secondly, we are going to be ranking the world’s most under-appreciated and misunderstood creatures. Finally, I will be saying a HUGE thank you to everyone who has made this incredible journey possible!
Obviously, no celebration is complete without guests, so to help me I am joined by 13 amazing, incredible, wonderful, inspiring people who have dedicated their lives to helping create a healthier, happier, more just and beautiful world for us all. They are…
- Robi and Emma from Zoology Ramblings!
- Connor and Steph from Planty Planty Zoo Zoo!
- Alicia Hayden and Natasha Hatcher - two of my favourite wildlife artists!
- Tasnia Khandaker – researcher, friend, dog lover, icon!
- Toryn Whitehead - PhD candidate and wild boar enthusiast!
- Tomi Teicher and Rae Landriau – two AMAZING members of the environmental education community from Consciente Colectivo and Create Change Collective!
- Indy Greene and Franca Kasuku, both new guests to the show who both do incredible conservation work!
- Jodi McFarlane, my ReZOO partner-in-crime!
They have each chosen a creature to highlight, and I have then ranked them… so I know it is going to be controversial!
I am so grateful to everyone who has offered their support to the show over the last 4 years. The boy who started this show would never, ever believe everything that was about to happen to him. Every success I have ever had is because of all of you… thank you, thank you, thank you!

The great Pennsylvanian poet Taylor Swift once asked, “arethere still beautiful things?”. The NAAEE Conference in Pittsburgh proved the answer is a resounding YES!
I was lucky enough to be able to attend the North American Association for Environmental Education Conference in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from the 6th-9th of November 2024! I met the most incredible people, made the most wonderful friends, and learned more than I ever could have dreamed of. It was constructive, challenging, enlightening, inspiring and joyful. This episode is a recap of that event, but also a huge thank all of the beautiful souls who made the conference what it was. I feel so grateful that I was able to share a few days with you!
The episode starts by explaining my history with NAAEE andrecounting my visit to the Pittsburgh Zoo! Then I recap all of my favourite moments from the conference. I talk about some of the major themes, and share some of the lessons I learned.

While the conversation revolves around the UK context, the advice is really transferable. So, no matter where you are, get ready to listen, take notes, and fall in love with local wildlife!
Jack and Emma also discuss her love of cetaceans (whales and dolphins), the Biomes Project's recent rewilding film and her favourite under-appreciated species!

Jack and Jasmine also discuss identity, inclusivity and how they hope to create a more diverse and effective conservation space through their work. This will involve the challenging process of unlearning our biases and asking some big questions, but it must be done.

Welcome to a very, very special episode! I am so excited to say that I have been named as BIAZA’s Rising Star of 2023. BIAZA is the British & Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums, and the award recognises the efforts of an individual who has gone above and beyond to support their collection and the wider zoo community (imagine if the zoo world had Oscars)! Today, I am going to tell you all about why this means the world to me!
I am grateful to everyone who has supported me in this brilliantly bizarre conservation journey, you are the reason I keep going and I owe you the entire world. This award is for…
Holly and Amy (who nominated me),
Jodi (my zoo partner in crime),
Everyone in the zoo world who has shown me such kindness,
Everyone at the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland for being a beautiful and supportive family,
And my Mum, Dad and Sister, who have given me the entire world and encouraged me to follow every pathway… even if it leads to somewhere unpredictable!
I should also thank Dharma, Gloria, Snowflake, Qabid, Mo and all the other animals who are my constant inspiration. I won’t stop working until we live in a world where nature is protected, valued and loved. I love you all. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You 💚

Can you name the five great apes? This week Jack is joined by Gerry Ellis, a wildlife photographer, podcast host and founder of GLOBIO - a non-profit that creates environmental films and provides training for other conservation organisations on how they can share their story. Starting with a chat about his early career and how he came to fall in love with apes, the duo then move on to discuss how great apes are faring in the age of the Anthropocene. They talk about the struggles these amazing creatures face, their complex stories, and how all of us can make a difference to their lives!
Jack also asks Gerry about his time working with Dr Jane Goodall, his love for the nature around him and why he keeps coming back to apes as the focus of his work! This episode takes us from the study sites of Dian Fossey in Rwanda, to the forests of Madagascar.

Did you know that you can use your nose to find Hyenas? Today Jack is joined by the absolutely brilliant Christine Wilkinson to discuss the brilliant world of Hyenas! The episode starts with an introduction to this incredible animal and a chat about what makes each of the four different members of hyaenidae distinct (the Spotted Hyena, Striped Hyena, Brown Hyena & Aardwolf).
Then, Jack and Christine move on to talk about fence ecology and human-wildlife conflict. Plus, they discuss some of the creative ways that conflicts have been resolved. This includes working with communities, building specialised farm equipment and painting eyes on cow's bottoms!
Finally, Christine chats about some of their favourite under-appreciated African species - the Secretary Bird, Vulture and Warthog! Name a more iconic trio, I'll wait...

Are you ready to stand tall for giraffe? Some of you may remember that 2 years ago we released an episode all about the wonderful world of the giraffe! Well, since this series we are celebrating all things Africa it felt wrong not to include them, and so we are republishing that episode for you all to enjoy... or maybe for you all to discover for the first time!
So, today Jack is joined by the incredible Julian and Stephanie Fennessy from the Giraffe Conservation Foundation to discuss all things giraffe! The trio discuss their incredible work all across the continent of Africa, the wonderful educations programmes they are running and the practical in the field conservation initiatives that they help to operate!
Since this episode aired originally, Jack has had the pleasure of meeting Julian and Stephanie in real life when they visited Edinburgh Zoo last year - it was an absolute joy! Alongside a trip to Scotland, Julian & Stephanie's calendar has also included a lot of very hard work! The Giraffe Conservation Foundation now works in around 18 countries on anti-poaching campaigns, translocations, surveying, and education. They have just gone from strength to strength and it is an honour to have them on the show!
(Originally aired on 21/06/2021 as '17. Stick Your Neck Out for Giraffe')

Today I am going to share the story of the first time I ever saw a pangolin in real life!
With over 100 podcast episodes, 10 conference presentations and a whole bunch of education work done in its name, the excitement was overwhelming. I am so grateful that they exist and that they are just as magical in person. The waddles, the sniffles, the curling into a ball. The moments of confusion, the awkward climbing, the gentle curiosity. The scales, the tongue, the tired eyes. The way it’s scales shimmer in the sunlight and the way they dance in the speckled shade. The fact they are unlike anything else on our beautiful planet. That’s what makes the pangolin special. That’s why I love them.
Please do everything you can to protect the pangolin. Raise awareness of the fact it is the most trafficked mammal in the world, donate funds to conservation organisations, support the people on the front line who are doing incredible research into this beautiful species. Thank you all for supporting this long distance relationship for the last 3 years. Pangolin: The Conservation Podcast and all it has brought me has made them a wild ride. Here’s to the next 100 years of obsession.
This is also a special video episode and features clips of the pangolin in its habitat at Prague Zoo!

Today Jack is joined once again by the absolutely fabulous Robi Watkinson, to discuss his experiences across the continent of Africa! Last time the duo chatted all about the things they should never tell their parents... like being chased by painted hunting dogs and hanging out of the side of planes!
This time Jack and Robi talk about much more responsible things, like the Masters in Conservation Biology that Robi is studying at the University of Cape Town, the importance of diversity in conservation, and the power that bringing voices from around the world together has!
They also chat about some of the under-appreciated species which Robi is fascinated by, this includes a very elusive orchid and the charmingly petit Cape Leopard!
Finally Robi shares advice on the importance of looking after your mental health in the field of conservation, something which he sums up so beautifully and Jack couldn’t endorse more!

Today Jack is joined by Robi Watkinson to chat all about his experiences across South Africa and Zambia! This includes filming out of the side of plane with no doors on, getting slightly too close for comfort with some crocodiles, otter spotting, and the essential but tiresome task of removing invasive Eucalyptus!
The duo also discuss the importance of diversity and seeing yourself in the field of conservation, some of the amazing people who inspire Robi, and why his heart will always remain in the Luangwa Valley... spoiler alert, it has a lot to do with the Leopards.
Robi will be back next week to chat all about mental health, diversity, his experience at the University of Cape Town, and a very elusive Orchid!

Today we are finally covering one of Jack's all-time favourite animals - the Okapi! To do this, Jack is joined by Lucas Meers, The Okapi Conservation Project's Program Officer!
The pair begin by chatting about what an Okapi is, and some of the weird and wonderful traits which help them too thrive in their forest home! Then, they discuss how The Okapi Conservation Project is trying to protect these magical creatures with agroforestry projects, education programmes and by better understanding emerging threats such as poaching!

Today Jack is joined by the absolutely brilliant Reekelitsoe "Rex" Molapo! She is here to talk all about the project which she cofounded - Conservation Music Lesotho! This incredible organisation seeks to inspire environmental action using the power of music, so Jack and Rex discuss what that means, how they do it and the impact the organisation has seen so far! Whether you are a professional musician or just someone who loves to sing in the shower, this is a fascinating story!
The duo also chat about Rex’s favourite under-appreciated African animal - the Ibis. They share some fun facts, hilarious stories and incredible Ibis impressions!

Welcome back to ReZOO: The Zoo Review Podcast! On today's episode, Jack and Jodi revisit Chester Zoo to determine whether they where too generous in their first assessment of the park. They discuss what has changed, some of the events they have attended, and why Chester Zoo remains one of the best zoos in the UK.
This episode is broken into 4 sections... Bats, Boats, Babies and Events (sorry we couldn't think of a 4th 'b word'). In the first section they discuss the bat house, which was closed due to COVID-19 the first time they visited. Then they discuss the island boat trip, before fawning over the zoo's baby Rhino, Fossa and Tapir! Finally they recap the Christmas lights and Youth Symposium!
Thank you for all your support over the past year, it has meant the absolute world to us! 💚

Hello friends! Today we’re talking all about the fantastic Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. This Zoo/Botanic Garden/Aquarium/Museum is absolutely one of the best museums on earth. Please let me tell you why…
On top of all the museum stuff, I also want to chat about the opening night of the NAAEE Conference, and my three favourite moments from the evening! In no particular order, they are…
🌸 The incredibly talented ‘Las Azeleas’! 📜 The declaration of ‘Environmental Education Week’ here in Tucson! 🐠 The wisdom imparted by the iconic Julie Packard, founder of the Monterey Bay Aquarium!
I can’t wait to see where the rest of this week takes me. It’s started really, really well!

Hello everyone! Today was the best day of my trip so far because I FED A GIRAFFE! That’s right, today I visited Reid Park Zoo and they where kind enough to let me feed one of their stunning Reticulated Giraffes!
However, I promise that’s not all I talk about today. I also discuss some of the zoos other animals. These include: Elephants, Rhinos, Anteaters, Tapirs, Jaguars, and Lions!
Plus, I discuss the best piece of zoo interpretation I’ve ever seen… a big elephant booty that makes a noise when you smack it! (I’m not making this up)
Finally, I talk about my trip to The University of Arizona and my childhood fear of late night swimming!

This week Jack is joined by Dagmar der Weduwen, a PhD student and Archerfishionando! What that means is she knows all about the wonderful world of archerfish! So, the duo discuss the archerfish's bizarre hunting techniques, why the fish would make excellent firefighters, how clever they are and the threats that they face!
Jack and Dagmar also discuss their shared love of St Andrews; why Dungeons & Dragons is the perfect cure for PhD stress; Social Learning; the importance of mangrove ecosystems; and how the IUCN Red List, while often useful, can also not always be the most helpful…
The pair are also joined by extra special guest, Willow the cat. Willow is a trailblazer, because she is the first cat to ever cause complete chaos on the podcast!
This is the penultimate episode of the series! We hope you enjoy 💚

This week Jack is joined by Brogan Mace, the creator of Project Simia! Project Simia is a social media campaign which is looking to promote the conservation of primates, so the duo chat about the issues with how primates are portrayed online. Brogan also helps Jack understand the differences between Apes, Monkeys, Lemurs and other Primates, and in return he tries to convince her that the Orangutan is the greatest of the great apes!
Jack and Brogan also talk about some of their favourite under-appreciated primates. This includes geladas, snub-nosed monkeys and proboscis monkeys (if you're a fan of 'Alien' or 'A Star is Born', you don't want to miss this)!

Her organisation is working to save wildlife across Paraguay, and today she is here to talk candidly about the huge conservation challenges facing the country. She also talks about her work with capuchins, what motivates her and how she believes we need to be more prepared to have difficult and challenging conversations in the world of conservation!

Welcome back to 'ReZOO: The Zoo Review Podcast'! As you may have heard, Bristol Zoo recently closed it's gates for the very last time. Therefore, Jack and Jodi wanted to memorialise this wonderful collection and celebrate the joy it brought them. However, to make this extra special they are going to be doing things a little bit differently!
Instead of covering the usual topics, to start off the episode Jack is joined by the fantastic Connor Davies, one of Bristol Zoos Engagement and Learning presenters! This dynamic duo discuss the importance and history of this amazing zoo, and Connor's memories with this incredible place. Then, Jodi returns to give her two stars and final thoughts!
Bristol Zoo was home to some amazing creatures, including Gorillas, Lions, Bats, Seals, Penguins and Red Pandas; and at 186 years old, it was the 5th oldest zoo in the world. We hope this send off brings you as much joy as Bristol Zoo brought us. So, raise your cups and let's say one final farewell to the fabulous Bristol Zoo!
Huge thanks to Connor for his amazing contributions to this episode 💚

Today Jack is joined by Stephanie Martin, an environmental communicator and the creator of Stephintonature.com, to tell stories about telling stories!
Whether they are fact or fiction, based in reality or totally bizarre, stories have been used for a very long time to communicate important messages and teach people something new. In the realm of conservation storytelling can therefore be an important tool... but it is a tool that must be used thoughtfully and respectfully. Today, Jack and Steph talk about how you can do just that!
They share their experiences with writing stories, telling myths and legends and speaking more scientifically. They also chat about how they make sure that they tell stories in a way that is respectful and culturally sensitive. Finally, they highlight some of the stories which mean the most to Steph. These include fortress conservation, parachute conservation, mismanagement of land in the UK, and Seagulls and pigeons!

Ellen Weatherford is back! This week she joins Jack to discuss some of the conservation issues facing her home state of Florida!
The duo discuss the destruction of natural habitats for human development, the division of nature by highways, and the huge invasive species issue… Iguanas, Burmese Pythons and Lion Fish, we are looking at you!
On top of that Ellen talks about how you can decide which American Zoos to support! She is an avid zoo fan, so talks about how to spot a great collection and the differences between the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the Zoological Association of America (ZAA).
Now… that all seems awfully serious, but do not worry, nothing stops Jack and Ellen from having a few laughs along the way!
It should also be noted that last week Ellen talked all about her favourite local species. This included chats about snapping turtles, bison, alligators, anoles, cotton mouths, spoonbills, scrub jays and manatees. So, if you haven’t checked that out, go back and have a listen!

On today's show Jack is joined by the fabulous Ellen Weatherford, who some of you may know from the incredible podcast 'Just the Zoo of Us'! She is here to celebrate the wonderful and wacky wildlife of her home state… Florida!
If anyone is concerned that one state may not contain enough interesting animals, do not panic! The extreme diversity of Florida’s landscape provides a wealth of bizarre species to discuss. To give you a little taste, throughout the course of the conversation the duo discuss topics including snapping turtles, bison, alligators, anoles, cotton mouths, spoonbills, scrub jays, manatees, mangroves, marshes and making yourself a menace on the neighbourhood group chat! They also discuss some of their personal experiences with Florida wildlife and why it is so chaotically charismatic!
It is also worth noting that this is the first part of a two part special! While this week the show is focused on the incredible biodiversity of Florida, next week Ellen will be back to chat all about the conservation issues facing the state. So, make sure to subscribe so that you don’t miss out!
Now, with all of that said, welcome to our guide of the weird, wacky and wonderful animals of Florida!

Jack discusses a huge range of conservation projects, his upcoming PhD, and the careers advice which has impacted him most. The episode also covers everything from coffee to dinosaurs; from zoos to rainforests; and from Tanzania to little Scottish gardens…
Thank you so much for your constant love and support! I hope I can repay you with 50 more episodes!

I don’t know the answer, but it gives me an excuse to chat about the plants of Legend!
Listen and learn the stories of…

Once again Jack is joined by Connor Davies, a member of the Chester Zoo Youth Board! He is here to tell us all about youth governance, inclusivity in conservation, and the important work and aspirations of the Chester Zoo Youth Board!
The pair begin with a recap of Connor's last appearance on the show where he discussed Bristol Zoo and volunteering. They then jump into the topic of inclusivity and how the Chester Zoo Youth Board promotes the voices of under-represented groups. They also take a whistle-stop tour through the Youth Boards greatest achievements (including their Youth Symposium and Accessibility work) and discuss two of Connor's favourite under-represented species, the somewhat bizarre aardvark and the unfortunately nicknamed scrotum frog!

Today Jack is joined by Lisa Bass, the Director of Programmes and Operations for SEED Madagascar. The duo discuss the wonderful mystery which is Madagascar; the impacts of climate change; and the diverse portfolio of work that SEED undertakes, including their work with School Building & Bat Conservation. Perhaps most importantly however, Lisa shines a light on the impact of COVID-19 on the charity, and the ongoing food crisis. While the charity has had huge successes in combatting these issues, the fight continues and they need our support. Please listen, share what you learn, and consider donating to their emergency fund which is providing vital supplies to those in need.
