Here at Autocrat, we quite often cover a lot of mythical beasts. Examples would include the Lernaean Hydra which Heracles and Iolaus dealt with, the sphinx tormenting Thebes, and the sea monster Cetus which Perseus rescued Andromeda from.However, how possible would some of these creatures really be? Take, for example, the griffin and the hippogriff. We know what species create these two, so could we see whether the number of chromosomes they have make them feasible?Well, on today's episode, we re-release episode 67 of Biopedia to answer this very question!Sources for this episode:Ewart, J.

fWotD Episode 2915: Lemurs of Madagascar (book) Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 28 April 2025, is Lemurs of Madagascar (book).Lemurs of Madagascar is a 2010 reference work and field guide for the lemurs of Madagascar, giving descriptions and biogeographic data for the known species. The primary contributor is Russell Mittermeier, president of Conservation International, and the cover art and illustrations are drawn by Stephen D. Nash. Currently in its third edition, the book provides details about all known lemur species, general information about lemurs and their history, and tips for identifying species. Four related pocket field guides have also been released, containing color illustrations of each species, miniature range maps, and species checklists.The first edition was reviewed favorably in the International Journal of Primatology, Conservation Biology, and Lemur News. Reviewers, including Alison Jolly, praised the book for its depth of coverage, illustrations, and discussion of topics including conservation, evolution, and the recently extinct subfossil lemurs. Each agreed that the book was an excellent resource for a wide audience, including ecotourists and lemur researchers. A lengthy review of the second edition was published in the American Journal of Primatology, where it received similar favorable comments. The third edition was reviewed favorably in Lemur News; the reviewer praised the expanded content of the book but was concerned that the edition was not as portable as its predecessors.The first edition identified 50 lemur species and subspecies, compared to 71 in the second edition and 101 in the third. The taxonomy promoted by these books has been questioned by researchers, such as Ian Tattersall, who view these growing numbers of lemur species as insufficiently justified inflation of species numbers.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:37 UTC on Monday, 28 April 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Lemurs of Madagascar (book) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Geraint.

Dr. Amato is a biological anthropologist studying the influence of gut microbes on host ecology and evolution. Her research examines how changes in the gut microbiota impact host nutrition, energetics, and health. She uses non-human primates as models for studying host-gut microbe interactions in selective environments and for providing comparative insight into the evolution of the human gut microbiota. Her main foci are understanding how the gut microbiome may buffer hosts during periods of nutritional stress and how the gut microbiome programs normal inter-specific differences in host metabolism. In this realm, she is also interested in global variation in the human gut microbiome and its implications for local human adaptation. Dr. Amato obtained her A.B. in Biology from Dartmouth College and her Ph.D. in Ecology, Evolution and Conservation Biology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She completed a postdoc at the University of Colorado Boulder. She joined the Department of Anthropology in 2015. She is also affiliated with the Interdisciplinary Biological Sciences Graduate Program and sits on the Executive Committee of the Northwestern Institute on Complex Systems. Dr. Amato is the President of the Midwest Primate Interest Group, an Associate Editor at Microbiome, an Editorial Board member at Folia Primatologica, and a Fellow for the Canadian Institute of Advanced Research's ‘Humans and the Microbiome' Program. ------------------------------ Find the paper discussed in this episode: Mallott, E., Kuthyar, S., Lee, W., … & Amato, K.

Conservation competes with a variety of other societal priorities and interests for funding and for attention. As a result, conservation projects, programmes and even broader concepts are frequently “packaged” in ways that prioritize grabbing attention. But promoting or marketing conservation initiatives in this way carries certain risks. Among them is the risk of being short-lived and without a real basis in the substance of the actual initiative – in other words a fad. Another is the risk of losing what has already been learned, when initiatives are “re-packaged” under a new buzzword.Kent Redford is the principal at Archipelago Consulting, and previously Director of the Wildlife Conservation Society Institute in New York. In 2013 Kent published a paper in the journal, Conservation Biology to flag his concerns about conservation fads. I called him up to revisit this topic, because it relates quite closely to my increasing concern about conservation buzzwords.Links to resourcesFads, Funding, and Forgetting in Three Decades of Conservation – A relevant publication in the journal, Conservation Biology, which Kent lead-authored in 2013.Visit www.case4conservation.com

Host Bob St. Pierre sits down with Dr. Dirac Twidwell, a professor and research scientist from the University of Nebraska, to talk about his hunting roots and life's mission to save America's last remaining grasslands. Dr. Twidwell explains the concept of the “Green Glacier” of woody vegetation taking over the Great Plains, and why prescribed fire is the most important tool for grassland habitat conservation. He also reports that woody encroachment is now equal to land conversion for agricultural production as the top two factors in habitat loss across the country. Episode Highlights: • Dr. Twidwell explains how his bird hunting trips had been moving west to keep ahead of the “Green Glacier” of woody encroachment into grasslands to find better upland gamebird populations before he even knew of the Green Glacier concept's existence. • The guys discuss Dr. Twidwell's bird hunting roots and how his work to save America's grasslands through science is akin to keeping a promise “to his 8-year-old self.” • Dr. Twidwell also reports The Sandhills of Nebraska as the single most intact grassland remaining on the entire planet. • Learn more about Dr. Twidwell's work on the Working Lands for Wildlife website or read his paper at the Society for Conservation Biology. onX Hunt is a proud supporter of Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever and they want to thank everyone who gives back to the birds we all love to hunt and the places they call home.

I first came across Ana Yi Soto's work through a LinkedIn post she created on language justice that went viral and due to its importance, she later decided to repost in the Society for Conservation Biology forum. In her post, she shared a meme from the television show Modern Family, in which Gloria, a native Spanish-speaking character from Colombia (the actress playing Gloria, Sofia Vergara is also from Colombia) says, “Do you even know how smart I am in Spanish?”Her powerful message about what language you happened to grow up speaking and how it can affect your career in conservation resonated deeply with me, especially given my own experiences conducting fieldwork in Kenya and particularly Gabon, where the national language is French and almost no one speaks English. I remember not being able to fully express myself and feeling dumb. Currently, I, am learning Portuguese and when speaking in Brazil, I even feel like I take on a different personality due to language limitations. I knew immediately that I had to invite Ana to share her insights with our Fancy Scientist community on how conservation being dominated by the English language when it comes to published research affects those who did not grow up as native English speakers, but still want to have a career that can make an impact.In this episode, we dive into the critical issue of language barriers in conservation work. We explore how the dominance of English in scientific research and conservation efforts can inadvertently exclude vital voices and perspectives from local communities. This conversation is essential for anyone passionate about creating more equitable, effective, and inclusive conservation strategies worldwide.Language barriers in conservation go far beyond simple translation issues. They can significantly impact the effectiveness of conservation efforts, limit the participation of local experts, and lead to misunderstandings that can derail well-intentioned projects. There are some words that have no meaning in other languages or do not fully translate. Ana and I discuss the frustrations of not being able to fully express complex ideas in a non-native language and the importance of creating spaces where all voices can be heard and valued.Ana's journey from a communication specialist in Peru to a global conservation leader working in Madagascar is truly inspiring. She shares valuable advice on maintaining curiosity and humility in conservation work, emphasizing the need for co-creation rather than imposing solutions. We also delve into her current roles with the Global Landscape Forum and CREA Planeta, showcasing how she's putting language justice principles into action.This conversation with Ana Yi Soto highlights the urgent need for a shift in how we approach conservation work globally. By prioritizing language justice and inclusivity, we can tap into a wealth of local knowledge and create more sustainable, community-driven conservation solutions.I encourage all of you, whether you're a seasoned conservationist or just starting your journey, to reflect on how language impacts your work and interactions. How can we all contribute to creating a more inclusive environment in conservation?Specifically, we go over:The concept of language justice and its importance in conservationChallenges faced by non-native English speakers in scientific fields and conservation workThe need for humility and co-creation in conservation projectsHow the landscape is shifting and efforts to increase inclusivity in global conservation events and publicationsAna's work with the Global Landscape Forum and CREA PlanetaHow Ana started out working in conservation in Peru and how she was able to pursue work across the globeAdvice for aspiring conservationists looking to make a differenceAnd more!I'm Dr. Stephanie Manka (formerly Schuttler), a wildlife biologist of nearly 20 yrs with 20+ peer-reviewed scientific publications, author of the book Getting a Job in Wildlife Biology: What It's Like and What You Need to Know (https://www.amazon.com/Getting-Job-Wildlife-Biology-What/dp/B08JDYXS4G/) and founder of Fancy Scientist.

To its disciples, science can seem like an infallible tool to determine fundamental truths about the world that we live in. But the truth is, science can fall victim to misinformation, disinformation and fraud, like many other institutions. Some scientists have turned the proverbial microscope on science itself. Jevin West, an associate professor in the Information School at the University of Washington, and co-founder and inaugural director of the Center for an Informed Public at UW, visited the University of Nevada, Reno for a Discover Science lecture and was hosted on the Discover Science podcast by associate professor of statistics Paul Hurtado, and Madeleine Lohman, master's and doctoral student in the Department of Statistics and Data Science and the Ecology, Evolution and Conservation Biology program. The three discuss issues related to trust in science, education about how to identify trustworthy information for people as young as kindergarteners to the elderly and how taking an interdisciplinary approach is critical to making progress in the information sciences.

A Good & True Story by Paul Gould

In this episode, Corrine, Keely, and Hillary deep dive into the Black Canyon races.  Keely dives into her first race of 2024 and how to ride with the punches and benefit from early season races. She also talks through her fueling and how increasing the amount of carbohydrates she consumed early on helped her to rally later in the race. Then they interview Becca Windell, who most recently secured her golden ticket at the Black Canyons 100km placing 2nd place female after a hard fought race.  She is also a PhD student at Colorado State University in the Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology department and co-founder of the Home Range Wildlife Research Non-profit that does research, training, and community science outreach in the Methow valley on the east side of the North Cascades.  We talk about her journey into running, eating disorder history in competitive cycling, the importance of fueling on life and performance, and finally, she talks us through her race at the Black Canyons 100km race.  We hope you enjoy this as much as we did!   Follow Becca here: @beccawindell   This episode is brought to you by Freetrail @runfreetrail www.freetrail.com - subscribe and JOIN US IN SLACK & Our Title Sponsor is The Feed!!!

Tracking and understanding invasive species is difficult, but even more so when the invasive can interbreed with the endangered native species creating a more powerful hybrid. This episode we look at a hybridising salamander. We also have a very special Species of the Bi-week.

About 60 percent of the Amazon rainforest is in Brazil and it is home to more than 300 indigenous groups. But for centuries both the rainforest and its indigenous inhabitants have been under threat, from deforestation, agri-business, mining and politics. Brazil's current president, Luis Ignácio de Silva, has made the future security of the Amazon and its peoples a key policy pledge. So far, the president has appointed a new minister for indigenous peoples and according to government figures, the first six months of this year saw a 33 percent drop in deforestation. But at the recent Amazon Summit in Belém, the president failed to commit to zero-deforestation, to the disappointment of indigenous leaders. They are calling for more protection for their land and their way of life, which they say is crucial to the future preservation of the Amazon and a matter for the whole world. This week on The Inquiry we are asking ‘Can Brazil's indigenous population save the Amazon?'
