Maya speaks with Dr. Robyn Miller and Connor O'Brian from American Eagle Foundation, who have 35 years of conservation education and rehabilitation experience as an organization. During this special episode of the Conservation Cast, Maya collaborated once again with her friends from the American Eagle Foundation to raise funds for Nepal Vulture Restaurants in celebration of international vulture awareness day. Unlike traditional episodes of the podcast, Maya and Robin paint a King Vulture whilst discussing vultures in Nepal and the roles they play within their ecosystems. The trio informed viewers about the ongoing vulture crisis in Africa and Asia as well as how their donations will create a safe place for vultures to eat avoiding toxic substances such as Diclofenac. Connor gave a background on the administration of the anti-inflammatory medication given to cattle in the early 2000s, and how vulture's ingestion of Diclofenac is thought to be the reason vulture populations have declined by 99% in Nepal and India. Throughout the painting, the three gave an array of facts and vulture knowledge, detailing the importance of vultures as ‘nature's clean up crew'. Such facts included urohydrosis, vomiting for self-defense along with the misconceptions surrounding it, and their potent stomach acid enabling them to stop the spread of diseases like rabies. Viewers saw a live appearance of George, a 35-year-old turkey vulture who is an ambassador at AEF due to his inability to fly. Later in the podcast, Maya makes her first attempt at fecal matter identification, led by Connor and AEF's rehabilitation director, Nancy. American Eagle Foundation Mayas community raised $2160 for the American Eagle Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded in 1985 in Tennessee dedicated to the conservation and restoration of the Bald Eagle and other birds of prey.
During this episode of the Conservation Cast, Maya spent time with her American Kestrel while introducing the American Eagle Foundation as the organization that would benefit from the live donations. Later, Maya was interviewed by SuperPunch about her journey as a streamer and experience as an apprentice falconer. The community watched Maya's top clips and learned more about her aspirations as a conservationist on Twitch. American Eagle Foundation Mayas community raised $1,400 for the American Eagle Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded in 1985 in Tennessee dedicated to the conservation and restoration of the Bald Eagle and other birds of prey.
During this special episode of the Conservation Cast, Maya collaborated with her friends from the American Eagle Foundation (AEF) to raise funds for Nepal Vulture Restaurants. Unlike traditional episodes of the podcast, the duo threw a painting and pizza party whilst discussing vultures in Nepal and the roles they play within their ecosystems. In the early 2000's, cattle in Nepal and across Asia were treated with a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication called Diclofenac. As a result of ingesting Diclofenac when feeding on the medicated carcass, vultures will die within 24-48 hours of liver and kidney failure. The administration of Diclofenac is thought to be the reason vulture populations have declined by 99% in Nepal and India. Vulture farms were established to be a safe haven for these endangered vultures to safely feed upon the carrions of cows and other animals. Amongst other topics of discussion was the negative economic and health effects vulture population decline has had in Nepal and across Asia and how a thriving vulture population can reverse these trends. American Eagle Foundation - Nepal Vulture Restaurants Maya and her community raised $1400 dollars for the American Eagle Foundation to help fund Nepal Vulture Restaurants, safe havens that allow these incredible birds to eat safely.
