Join us on this special episode of the Think Wildlife Podcast as we journey deep into one of India's most overlooked ecological marvels — the Eastern Ghats. Known as a biodiversity hotspot, the Eastern Ghats are a treasure trove of hidden gems waiting to be discovered. From rare mammals and elusive reptiles to ancient forests and unique conservation challenges, this episode is your gateway to understanding the conservation of the rich Eastern Ghat biodiversity through the eyes of local conservationist Murthy Kantimahanti, founder of the Eastern Ghats Wildlife Society.What makes the Eastern Ghats Biodiversity so unique? Stretching from Odisha to Tamil Nadu, these ancient, fragmented hill ranges are home to species found nowhere else on earth. Discover the flora and fauna of Eastern Ghat, including endangered animals like the Indian pangolin, the world's smallest wildcat — the rusty spotted cat — and apex predators like leopards and tigers. The region is also one of the few strongholds of the majestic king cobra and rare birds such as the double-banded courser, all thriving amidst a patchwork of dry deciduous forests, rocky outcrops, and sacred groves.This podcast delves into real-world biodiversity conservation as Murthy discusses his grassroots efforts to protect these fragile ecosystems. Hear about community-led efforts tackling human-wildlife conflict, addressing snakebite mitigation, and launching rescue initiatives for pangolins and snakes. The episode showcases how biodiversity management isn't just about saving wildlife — it's about fostering ecology-driven coexistence between humans and animals.As Murthy explains, Eastern Ghats conservation is riddled with landscape-level threats: illegal mining, deforestation, slash-and-burn cultivation (Podu), habitat loss, roadkills, and wildlife trafficking. Yet, despite these challenges, he and his team have launched pioneering programs that document animal presence, conduct training for forest officials, and educate local communities. From camera traps to GIS analysis, their work exemplifies hands-on, scalable conservation.Learn how fear was transformed into respect through the King Cobra Conservation Program. Discover how hunters were trained into rescuers and how communities now call the society instead of killing snakes. Explore their innovative use of behavior change strategies to reshape perceptions and reduce conflict with animals like elephants, otters, and bears.Conservation is not about social media pictures or one-time cleanups. As Murthy passionately states, it's about “getting your hands dirty,” building trust with communities, and creating real change. Whether it's through ecological research, education, or direct action, their work epitomizes what grassroots conservation in a biodiversity hotspot should look like.If you're passionate about wildlife conservation, regional biodiversity, or curious about lesser-known ecological treasures of India, this is the episode for you. It's a tribute to the wildlife of the Eastern Ghats — the resilient species, the people protecting them, and the conservation strategies driving change in one of India's most critical yet under-recognized ecoregions.Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more thought-provoking conversations on biodiversity and wildlife conservation.

In this inspiring episode of the Think Wildlife Podcast, we're joined by Sri Chakra Pranav Tamarapalli, marine biologist and founder of the East Coast Conservation Team (ECCT), to dive deep into the untold story of conservation along India's East Coast—a region often overlooked in biodiversity efforts. From protecting smooth-coated otters in freshwater wetlands to documenting rare intertidal biodiversity, this episode explores the challenges and triumphs of grassroots conservation in Andhra Pradesh.Conservation Beyond the MainstreamWhile India's Western Ghats and Northeast are recognized as biodiversity hotspots, Pranav shines a light on the unsung ecosystems of Andhra's wetlands, canals, and coastlines. Hear how ECCT began with otter research in Kondakarla Ava, one of the largest freshwater lakes in the state, and evolved into a dynamic organization working on marine conservation, citizen science, and community engagement.Otters as Flagship Species for Freshwater EcosystemsDiscover how Pranav's groundbreaking work uncovered populations of smooth-coated otters—and potentially even small-clawed otters—in Vishakhapatnam and Srikakulam districts. Learn how these apex predators play a crucial role in balancing aquatic ecosystems and how their presence could redefine the conservation map of coastal Andhra.But the journey isn't without conflict—hear about the tension between local fishermen and otters, and how awareness campaigns are bridging the gap between livelihoods and conservation.Marine Biodiversity & Citizen Science: The Tidepool RevolutionThrough the Intertidal Biodiversity Project, ECCT has documented over 350 species in coastal tidepools, some of which had never been recorded in mainland India before. Using iNaturalist and engaging more than 2,000 people through guided shore walks, Pranav and his team are building a model of inclusive conservation—fostering marine literacy and inspiring the next generation of ocean stewards.Stranding Response & Building a Marine NetworkFrom dolphins and turtles to whale sharks, the ECCT team is pioneering stranding response efforts—working with forest departments and researchers to conduct necropsies and uncover causes of marine megafauna mortality. Their vision? A state-wide Marine Conservation Network in Andhra Pradesh to coordinate rapid response, build datasets, and support visiting scientists with real-time local data.Sharks, Rays & Future AmbitionsPranav also shares collaborations with institutions like IISc and Satyabhama University on elasmobranch conservation, revealing insights into shark landings and electric ray distribution. ECCT's long-term goal is clear: to serve as an entry point for researchers, conservationists, and institutions seeking to work in one of India's least-studied marine landscapes.Topics Covered:* East Coast biodiversity and conservation gaps* Otters as ecosystem engineers and flagship species* Wetland connectivity across Andhra Pradesh* Tidepool ecology and intertidal species discoveries* Marine megafauna strandings and necropsy response* Conflict mitigation with local communities* Challenges of fundraising, mentorship and fieldwork* Citizen science and iNaturalist projects* Grassroots network-building for marine protectionSupport ECCTPranav highlights the importance of donations, CSR partnerships, and volunteer support—especially from those fluent in local languages.

Cody Lawrence, host of the Spare No Arrows podcast, is a prominent voice against contemporary ideologies that threaten traditional values. Lawrence articulates a vision of courage that transcends mere bravado, advocating for a selfless commitment to truth and righteousness inspired by historical Christian principles. The discussion extends to the cultural phenomena of the 'woke right,' which Lawrence critiques as a misalignment of true conservative values, prompting an in-depth analysis of what it means to be a man of integrity in today's society. Throughout the conversation, the importance of understanding and articulating opposing views is emphasized, as is the call to restore a culture rooted in biblical truths. Takeaways:True conservatism means conserving truth, while progressivism involves moving away from or beyond biblical truth.Churches following scripture above government, popularity, and money are key to addressing cultural problems.Understanding opponents' arguments thoroughly is crucial for developing stronger positions and having meaningful discussions.Modern church problems stem from prioritizing numbers and attendance over biblical truth and faithful teaching.Scripture should be the ultimate authority above historical Christianity, tradition, or contemporary cultural movements.EVOLUTION VIDEOWatch on YouTubeShare on XCONNECT WITH CODYSpare No Arrows on YouTubeAntioch Declaration BreakdownFollow Cody on XThe Antioch DeclarationMENTIONED IN THIS PODAST"The Righteous Mind" by Jonathan Haidt

Through stories, historical insights, and music, we uncover how enslaved African Americans used music to communicate, preserve their identity, and confront hardship. They also used their traditional expression to resist and revolt against ideologies and beliefs not part of their traditions. We also highlight the contributions of early folklorists, musicians, and modern artists who continue to keep these traditions alive.

The Asiatic Lion is probably India's finest conservation miracles. With less than 100 individuals remaining in the wild in the 1960s, the population has skyrocketed with an estimated 600-800 lions roaming the forests of Saurashtra. In 2018, over 50 lions were lost due to an outbreak of the canine distemper disease. Moreover, the range of the Gir lion has spread well beyond the forests of Gir National Park, with prides often found wandering urban landscapes in Saurashtra. This poses a risk of human-lion conflict, which till now has been relatively limited.In Episode 6 of The Think Wildlife Podcast, I am joined by India's leading lion biologist, Dr. Venkatraman, the founder of Carnivore Conservation and Research. She has over 20 years of experience as a wildlife biologists and studied the behavioural ecology of the Asiatic Lion. We talk about her intriguing work on lion ecology and conservation.

In August 2022,  I had the very good fortune to explore the mountains of Dras, Kargil in search of one of India's rarest terrestrial mammals - the Himalayan Brown Bear. Listed as Critically Endangered by the IUCN Red List, there are less than 500 individuals remaining in the wild scattered across Western Himalayas and the Karakoram Mountains. Drass in the Kargil District of Ladakh and the neighbouring Deosai National Park in Pakistan remain their largest stronghold (tune in to this episode to learn why this region is so attractive for the bears!)The future of the Himalayan Brown Bear lies in the balance with climate change causing significant disruption across the Himalayas. Changing climate patterns is altering the flowering of berries and other plants, reducing the availability of food for these omnivorous bears. This has significant implications for the ecology of brown bear. In fact, studies have found that both, the hibernation patterns of the Himalayan Brown Bear and the Asiatic Black Bear have been altered due to rising temperatures and reduce snowfall. Additionally, the bears have become significantly more reliant on livestock as food, hence exacerbating human-bear conflict. The Himalayan Brown Bears also are threatened by severe habitat loss and degradation. Sadly, both the bears, and their habitat were collateral damage of the 1999 Kargil War. In the present scenario, haphazard development across the Himalayas has also further fragmented their habitats. The added pressure of free ranging dogs is a major threat to the biodiversity of Ladakh.In this episode of The Think Wildlife Podcast, I interview Niaz Hassan Khan, a PhD Scholar at the Wildlife Institute of India. We talk about his work on Himalayan Brown Bears in Kargil and the way forward for their conservation.

John Michelotti rejoins the Nature Calls: Conversations from the Hudson Valley podcast to continue his mission to spread information about the incredible benefits of fungi, and their capacity to change the way we look at our relationships with each other and the world. John is the founder of Catskill Fungi, which produces health tinctures from fungi that are wild-crafted or grown on the Michelotti family farm in Big Indian, NY. John co-founded the Catskill Regional Mycoflora Project, serves as Medicinal Mushroom Committee Chair, and is a Poison Control Consultant for the North American Mycological Association. He describes the various parts of a mushroom (e.g. gills, pores, teeth, etc.) that produce spores which are the way that fungi reproduce. He recommends that mushrooms be cooked for us to get the nutritional benefits. In addition to food uses, mushrooms can be used medicinally. Certifications are required to sell mushrooms commercially. People can become quite ill if they consume mushrooms that are not safe to eat. Some mushrooms can also be deadly. Traceability is key to understand the source of the mushrooms, especially when sold to restaurants.Foragers are encouraged to have liability insurance if they plan to sell mushrooms. Knowledge about how to identify mushrooms is key if you want to find mushrooms for personal use. Mushroom walks and conferences are great sources of information. Fungi break down plants. Anything that is plant-based can potentially be decomposed by mushrooms and make good soil in the process. Conserving soil and habitat is key to protecting fungi in the future, especially with the risks of climate change. Understanding fungi brings us closer to better understanding the interconnection being all members of the universe. Learn about the incredible benefits of fungi, and their capacity to change the way we look at our relationships with each other and the world. Get inspired to grow edible mushrooms as a source of fresh food, heal yourself by using the health properties of fungi, and explore the historic uses and present-day innovations of the fungal kingdom.

Being a Black architect in the white-male-dominated 20th century was tough.  You were paid less, worked harder, and rarely got any credit.  That is, if you could get hired at all. For example, by 1950 there were only two Black architects registered in North Carolina, both male. By 1980 the number was only 65 out of 1909. Even by 1993, Black architects made up only 7.5% nationally.  Today we'll hear from Charles McAfee, considered by many to be the greatest living African-American architect. The National Trust for Historic Preservation, supported by the Getty Foundation in Los Angeles, is working to share and elevate the achievements of African-American architects, both men and women.  We'll talk with the director that program, Brent Leggs.  Later on, great jazz with Jaimee Paul.
