Love science and conservation? Want to discover new ways to protect our species? Elle Kaye chats with guests who work within the science genre, but whose job titles may need a little unpacking. Strap in for entomology, taxidermy, diaphonization, pet remains, human pathology and all those that work with specimens.   In episode 024 Elle chats with Dillon about his  journey to becoming a wildlife and Evolutionary biologist. Dillon discusses how a growing up in Texas with a fear of critters was transformed by exposure to them, and ended up becoming his greatest passion. Now studying for his masters, Dillon shares how he successfully creates and holds down his incredible science communication, whilst working towards his qualification.    Dillon's socials IG - https://www.instagram.com/dillonthebiologist Twitter - https://twitter.com/BiologistDillon YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdihyBzjnXQusxPerecOD0g Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/DillonTheBiologist    Bio  https://www.theaddictivebrain.com/fullscreen-page/comp-jk6g9xcw/094fc2a0-e005-46e8-9eba-e0f978e1aa5d/96/%3Fi%3D96%26p%3Dbyk49%26s%3Dstyle-jk6g9x7l   Eat guest speaker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USkStiVCpho   Research  https://tamuugr.wordpress.com/2018/12/17/dillon-jones-from-challenge-to-accomplishment/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN3UUCWEDPA https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/58064/list/8/ https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/48499/ https://issuu.com/tamu_hur/docs/official_explorations_volume_8/8   Press https://www.mammalz.com/blog/2021/6/25/featured-creator-dillon-jones   Environmental science site https://mongabay.org/   Learn adventurously server https://learnadventurously.com/   Elle Kaye socials  IG - www.instagram.com/ellekayetaxidermy   Podcast socials IG - www.instagram.com/specimenspod Twitter - www.twitter.com/specimenspod Patreon - www.patreon.com/specimenspod Merch - www.ellekayetaxidermy.co.uk/product-page/specimenspodmerch   Artwork © 2021 Madison Erin Mayfield IG - www.instagram.com/madisonerinmayfield Twitter - https://twitter.com/MEMIllustration   Music Giraffes - Harrison Amer via premiumbeat.com   Researched, edited and produced by Elle Kaye Concept/Title © 2020 Elle Kaye
