Description
Today, the Safari heads up north to Providence, Rhode Island, to visit Roger Williams Park Zoo! I interview Lou Perrotti, the Director of Conservation Programs at RWPZ, and he goes deep on some of the conservation efforts he is involved with through the zoo. You'll learn about three projects in great detail, that deal with the conservation of less charismatic species, and why that is so important! We also discuss the effect of the current pandemic on the world of conservation, and touch on Lou's role as AZA SSP coordinator for both American burying beetles and wood turtles! Check out Roger Williams Park Zoo @rwpzoo on Insta, and at rwpzoo.org. Also remember to support the podcast at patreon.com/rossifari, check out merch at rossifari.redbubble.com, and hit up @rossifari on Insta for daily zoo pics!
