Erna Walraven was one of the first female zookeepers to work at Sydney's Taronga Zoo in the 1980s. She ignored practical jokes from her male colleagues, like animal dung in her gumboots, and this led to career highlights like travelling the globe to select the zoo's next gorilla patriarch. (R)Erna was born in The Netherlands, to parents who were involved in the Dutch resistance during World War II.Erna's love of languages took her to Spain, where she lived for many years with her widowed sister and young nephew.It was there she met a penniless Australian backpacker and fell in love, starting Erna on the path to the rest of her life.Further informationOriginally broadcast May 2025.Hear Me Roar was published by Affirm Press in 2025.This episode was produced by Alice Moldovan.

In this episode I am joined by Dr. Rhiannon Schultz. Rhiannon is the Project Manager and Welfare Consultant at Animal Welfare Expertise, and her background is incredibly diverse—spanning wildlife rehabilitation, certified dog training, and conservation research. She has recently completed her PhD at the University of Georgia, focusing on western lowland gorilla health, nutrition, and physiology. In this episode we span what a holistic welfare program might look like for Gorillas in human care. Enjoy!

Deutschland steckt fest zwischen den Machtblöcken: China rüstet industriell auf, Amerika zieht die Daumenschrauben an – und Europa schaut zu im eigenen Schicksalsdrama. Wie behauptet sich der Standort D, wenn die alten Regeln der Globalisierung nicht mehr gelten? Wie viel Offenheit, wie viel Schulden, wie viel Verteidigung braucht ein Land, das wieder ernst genommen werden will? Darüber streite ich mit zwei Ökonomen, die unterschiedlicher kaum sein könnten: Daniel Stelter, scharfzüngiger Chronist des deutschen Abstiegs und Autor von „Absturz". Und Moritz Schularick, Präsident des Kieler Instituts für Weltwirtschaft, Mitarchitekt des 500-Milliarden-Sondervermögens und Reformer der Schuldenbremse. Es geht um Trumps asymmetrische Deals, Chinas Griff um die seltenen Erden, Europas militärische Erpressbarkeit – und um die Frage, ob Deutschland nur noch der „kleine Affe zwischen zwei Gorillas" ist. In zwei Punkten sind sich Stelter und Schularick einig: Auswandern ist keine Lösung. Und wer wissen will, wie Reform geht, schaut nach Dänemark. Wir freuen uns an Feedback über aaa@welt.de.

Nate sits down with Ashten Haley from the Cobleskill-Richmondville wrestling program in Section II. Ashten just finished his junior season and has established himself as one of the top high school wrestlers in New York State, highlighted by his recent commitment to Binghamton University. He discusses that choice, while also providing an update on the elbow injury he suffered during the state tournament and the rehab process ahead. Also appearing on the podcast is Nate Leonard, head coach of the Gorilla Grapplers Wrestling Club and a longtime friend of the show. Ashten has trained with the Gorillas for several years, and this conversation dives into his connection with Coach Leonard. The discussion also touches on his Section IV roots in Worcester and the move to C-R so he could continue competing.

Er hat das Genre der Naturdoku geprägt wie kein anderer: Am 8. Mai wird Sir David Attenborough 100 Jahre alt. In Großbritannien ist er sowas wie ein nationales Denkmal. Ein ziemlich aktives allerdings. Wer ein bisschen auf Netflix stöbert, der stößt gleich auf eine Handvoll Filme von ihm. Der letzte – eine Dokumentation über Gorillas – ist erst seit wenigen Tagen online.
Hold onto your elf ears! This week, Sarah welcomes the hilarious Maddie Maze to the studio. Things get "steamy" early as they discuss the questionable benefits of DIY Yoni steams and the mystery of "vagina bleaching" black underwear. Sarah recounts a dark 39th birthday spent bombing for a sleepy audience, while Maddie takes us back to the "musty" halls of 2010s anime conventions and the legendary Homestuck fandom. The duo then predicts the future of combat: 1 million Mike Tysons vs. 10,000 Gorillas and the inevitable "Kill-More War" (Kill Tony fans vs. Gilmore Girls moms). Plus, Sarah explores a potential copper-haired midlife crisis and unearths an incredibly awkward throwback video of Matt Rife trying to flirt with Zendaya.

Ewan Kyle grew up inside a national park in South Africa. His parents worked for Nature Conservation. He did his schooling at home and in the time he should have been in a classroom he was out in the field with researchers studying crocodiles, gaboon vipers, birds and the big five across the greater iSimangaliso wetlands. He eventually found his way to guiding on the northernmost estuary in South Africa, and one phone call from Rob Scott at African Waters later, he was on a boat heading into the Ndogo Lagoon in Gabon for the first time. He didn't sleep for three weeks. That was 2017. He's been at Sette Cama ever since. In this episode Ewan walks Wade through one of the most extraordinary fishing and wildlife destinations on earth - the second biggest lagoon in Africa, where tarpon up to 90 kilos crash mullet, cubera snapper push 50 kilos, bull sharks patrol the shore break, and forest elephants, lowland gorillas, dwarf crocodiles and surfing hippos are just part of the walk to work. Including Frank - a very large, very angry forest elephant with a blind eye, a torn ear, and a personal vendetta against humans. Recorded on location at Sette Cama camp, Gabon, Africa.

Ruanda und der Ton wurde leiser. Seazen-Fotograf Justin Hession zeigte Bilder, die nicht um Aufmerksamkeit kämpfen müssen. Sie halten sie. Kurt Zürcher, Gründer von Let's go Tours und seit Jahrzehnten mit dem Land verbunden, erzählte von einem Ort, der seine Vergangenheit nicht beiseiteschiebt, sondern daraus etwas Aufrechtes gebaut hat – mit einer Tourismusentwicklung, die andere auf dem Kontinent hinter sich lässt. Und dann die Gorillas. Warum man ihnen einmal gegenübergestanden haben sollte. Und warum einmal – eigenartigerweise – genügt.www.traveltalks.ch Hosted on Acast.

“We were able to improve the health of the gorillas and people together. What we do is we improve the health and the livelihoods of the local communities. Because as long as people are poor, they're going to keep entering the forest to poach and collect firewood and they're going to end up making the gorillas sick, or picking up diseases from wildlife in the forest.” Myra Anubi speaks to Dr Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka, a Ugandan wildlife vet and founder of Conservation Through Public Health, about the approach she developed to help save mountain gorillas from extinction.When she began her work in 1994, their numbers had fallen to just a few hundred. Not just because of habitat loss and poaching, but because of human diseases.Rather than focusing only on treating the animals, she realised the solution lay with the people living alongside them. Better health and livelihood opportunities meant less poaching and less need to rely on the forest, reducing the risk of disease and protecting the gorillas.The Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world, from all over the world.

A BBC Disclosure investigation has uncovered significant questions about what happened at the hotel where Charmain Spiers died. In 2015, Charmain's body was discovered in a hotel room, and her death was determined as “heroin poisoning”. Her husband and self-proclaimed prophet, Eric Adusah was seen at the hotel on the night of her death, and a test of her hair showed no long-term heroin use. The BBC Disclosure team has been to Ghana to hear from witnesses about what happened in the days leading up to and the night of her death. And the population of mountain Gorillas in Uganda may increase following conservation initiatives aimed at improving the lives of local communities to discourage poaching activities.

What does it take to dedicate your life to photographing the wild, and do it with purpose, integrity, and impact? In this episode, I sit down with legendary wildlife photographer Tom Murphy, a Montana-based Yellowstone photographer whose work has not only captured the soul of the natural world, but has now earned the incredible honor of being featured on a United States postage stamp.Tom shares his wild storeis of documenting Girzzly Bears, Bison, Gorillas, and more in his career that has spanned more than 40 years as a professional wildlife photographer. He was also the first photographer ever to be licensed to teach photography workshops in the National Park system.We dive deep into Tom's journey—from how he first picked up a camera to building a lifelong career photographing wildlife across the globe. Along the way, we explore the ethics of wildlife photography, what it truly means to respect the animals and environments we photograph, and how to go beyond simply documenting animals to actually revealing who they are through behavior and storytelling.Tom also shares the real truth about making money as a wildlife photographer, how to create lasting value in your work, and what it takes to sustain a career in one of the most challenging genres of photography. We also get personal—talking about lessons learned over decades, what he might do differently if he started over, and the advice he would give photographers chasing a similar path today. This is an inspiring, honest, and deeply insightful conversation about art, responsibility, and the wild places that shape us.

In this episode Garth interviews Steve Most from the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia. Steve shares his approach to navigating the two-body academic problem with his wife, which has led to dual jobs in Sydney and continued adjunct affiliation with the University of Delaware. He describes early uncertainty about research, influential mentors, and how Dan Simons' visual cognition work and the "gorilla" selective attention task reshaped his interests, highlighting inattentional blindness and the role of attention in shaping conscious experience. He outlines his research on emotion-induced blindness and a newer program on effort aversion, including links to students' Psych 1 grades and planned applications to critical thinking and entrepreneurship. They discuss AI as cognitive offloading versus "desirable difficulties," his TEDx card-change demonstration, and his co-authored Oxford cognition textbook, emphasizing story-driven, real-world examples and interdisciplinary connections.

Fancy Scientist: A Material Girl Living in a Sustainable World
How do you actually make your wildlife career happen when you feel like you've missed your window? You got the degree, maybe even got some temporary jobs here and there, but you felt like you weren't getting traction. Or couldn't see how it could all come together. And time just keeps ticking away…That's exactly how my former Successful Wildlife Professional student, Makeela Magomolla, was feeling before she joined my group mentoring program. Even though she was young at 25, the world was taken over by a pandemic, halting opportunities for young wildlife professionals left and right, and she felt powerless to move forward in her wildlife career and contribute to making a difference in the world. But in this week's episode of the Fancy Scientist podcast, you'll discover how we turned that around for her!After graduating in 2020 in the midst of the COVID pandemic, when the world shut down, Makeela found herself in a lab job, feeling like she had missed her chance and questioning if she was “too old” for a wildlife career. Today, she is a Master's student leading acoustic surveys and collaborating directly with state DNR biologists on the animals she is most passionate about: bats.Through our conversation, you'll learn how Makeela moved out of a “dark space” by taking the advice to be intentional. She didn't just wait for luck; she went on a “rampage” to find opportunities. You'll learn how she started to make things happen for her: she volunteered in wildlife rehabilitation and reached out to a campus group called the “Bat Brigade” that had been dormant since the pandemic. She even took the preemptive step of paying for her own rabies vaccinations, an expensive and painful preventative needed for bat work, to ensure she was ready for any hands-on opportunity that came her way.You'll hear how Makeela mastered networking through cold emailing professionals she wanted to work with and learn from. Despite being shy using the methods and templates provided in the Successful Wildlife Professional program, she reached out to graduate students, professors, and other researchers.She even connected with a former podcast guest of mine, Dr. Seth Magle, which led to an introduction that helped her find a graduate advisor and a project she truly cared about.The results of her networking were so effective, that when she was invited to an important meeting with bat specialists in the area, she realized that she already had met everyone in the room prior! Her dedication even led to a generous donation from a sponsor, allowing her to start her first semester of graduate school while she applied for teaching assistantships.Makeela shares the details of her Master's research, which includes analyzing the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources data sets, tracking rehabilitated bats post-release, and studying the effectiveness of community science as a tool in wildlife research, as well as the importance of science communication and getting the community involved in nature right where they live.You'll walk away from Makeela's story excited about what is possible when you decide to be intentional about your career path. Makeela proves that even when you are at your “wits' end,” small shifts in mindset, strategy, and more led her to incredible results!Finally, after the interview, I break down the main points Makeela covered and how you can apply them to your own career, including the importance of mindset, why you should lead with the job you want rather than the degree, and how to build a community in this field, no matter your background.Specifically, we talk about:Makeela's detailed journey from a 2020 pandemic graduate to her first week as a Master's studentHow she handled the “quarter-life crisis” and the feeling of powerlessness when job opportunities were unavailableWhy she chose to be intentional about specializing in bats after a senior project and an experience in RwandaHow she revitalized the “Bat Brigade” on campus and transitioned from a volunteer to a leader of the program – even after she graduated from college and was no longer a student!How a cold email to a podcast guest resulted in an introduction to her current graduate advisorThe way her networking efforts connected her with state DNR biologists and the local wildlife rehabilitation communityThe story of how a sponsor provided a donation that let her start her Master's research.The elements of her research, including acoustic data analysis, post-rehab tagging, the social science of community science, and moreHer perspective on being a BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) professional in the field and the value of groups like BIPOC birding organizationsHow she integrated her interests by joining working groups and following labs on social media to find opportunitiesWhy she shifted from wanting to work abroad to finding value in investing in the community and wildlife of the MidwestAnd MORE!Jump links:01:13 Meet Mikayla And Big Lessons04:34 Early Passion For Wildlife05:55 Pandemic Graduation Detour09:23 Quarter Life Crisis11:05 Choosing Bats On Purpose14:30 Bat Brigade Leadership17:22 Networking Into Grad School23:40 Funding And TA Path25:59 Masters Project Overview29:45 Citizen Science Impact30:36 Career Goals and Tanzania32:08 Local Nature Appreciation36:19 Gorillas and Wildlife Highlights40:20 Being BIPOC Outdoors44:29 Networking and Cold Emails48:23 Host Recap and ResourcesDream of being a wildlife biologist, zoologist, conservation biologist, or ecologist?

Vom Unternehmensberater zum Kopf hinter einem der schnellsten Unicorns Deutschlands: Der Flink-Grüner erzählt, wie der Lieferdienst in nur einem Jahr von 0 auf 80 Millionen Euro Umsatz wuchs, mit weit über 2 Milliarden US-Dollar bewertet wurde – und Ende 2023 plötzlich am Abgrund stand. Im OMR Podcast spricht Oliver Merkel außerdem darüber, warum Flink im Gegensatz zu Gorillas, Getir und Co. überlebt hat, warum das Zehn-Minuten-Lieferversprechen eigentlich teures Marketing war und welche Pläne er mit seinem neuen Unternehmen namens Blocks verfolgt.

In dieser Abenteuerhappen-Folge nimmt dich Sebastian mit genau dorthin: nach Uganda. Zurück zu Hause spricht er mit Line über diese intensive Reise, über besondere Begegnungen, überraschende Momente und die Eindrücke, die ihn bis heute begleiten.
This time Gari and Mel critique Gorillas in the Mist, the 1988 true story of primatologist Dian Fossey, whose remarkable conservation work with Mountain Gorillas and unsolved murder have become the stuff of legend. Mel takes us through the true story to learn just how sanitised the movie is compared to the real history. Gari then takes us behind the scenes on the remarkable production where Sigourney Weaver and the crew really filmed with Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda, often taking risks you wouldn't believe. It's an episode you don't want to miss. If you like the show, we'd love it if you'd support us and leave us a REVIEW and SUBSCRIBE. Thanks! SUBSCRIBE: Apple | Spotify | Google | RSS
The first episode of the year is here, and it is delicious! Garrison's Gorillas! The Yellow Rose! Ghosted! And a surprise? Please, listen and enjoy.

Chuck Rocha returns from his gorilla-tracking adventure in Rwanda (complete with wild stories and a new honorary tribal chief title) to dive deep with Mike Madrid into why Latino voters are uniquely positioned to reshape American politics.In this episode, Mike breaks down the stunning data showing that while other voters remain locked in partisan camps with only 2-3% swings, working-class Latinos are swinging 11-15% between elections—making them the only true swing voting bloc left in America. From kicking out Republicans across the country in 2025 to determining crucial Texas House races in March of this year, Mike and Chuck explore why Latino voters' willingness to hold politicians accountable regardless of party might be the most rational response in an otherwise polarized system.Plus: reflections on faith and politics in Latino communities, the inside story of the Jasmine Crockett-Colin Allred Senate race dynamics, and why this generational transformation will define American politics through 2050. And yes, Chuck shares what it's really like to sit face-to-face with silverback gorillas (spoiler: there's no glass between you).-Recorded: January 14, 2026-Referenced in the episode:Check out Senator Ruben Gallego's 'Path Home' housing affordability plan video: https://x.com/SenRubenGallego/status/2011451211225166201'Can James Talarico Reclaim Christianity for the Left?' form the Ezra Klein podcast: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/opinion/ezra-klein-podcast-james-talarico.html-Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more episodes of The Latino Vote Podcast!

For our first episode of 2026 we're back in relatively recent times (although longer ago than you'd expect 2010 to be!), where we discuss our favourite songs of the year, including Electropop bangers, Blackened prog, & hour long noise jams, plus unexpected jazz appreciation, Beautiful baritone vocals, and the best mispronounciation of a member of Sigur Rós I've ever heard... We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order. She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) - Agalloch, S. Carey, Caribou, Clever Girl, El Goodo, Everything Everything, The Fall, Fear Factory, Foals, Ben Folds and Nick Hornby, Goldfrapp, Gorillas ft Gruff Rhys and De La Soul, John Grant, Grinderman, Ihsahn, ILIKETRAINS, Jónsi, Kayo Dot, LCD Soundsystem, Liars, Linkin Park, Massive Attack, Merzbow, Dan Michaelson, The National, Red Sparowes, Robyn, Teenage Fanclub, Terror, & Warpaint Find all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/50k4w0QBaammhPgSCnUj0A?si=05cc225aed9d4e12Find our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes (which need updating but I plan on doing them over the next few months or so), you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdgIan's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqAand Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9NwThe playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point. The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Part of the We Dig Podcasts network along with Free With This Months Issue & Pick A Disc.Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/wedigmusic.bsky.socialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wedigpusicpcast/Find our other episodes & podcasts at www.wedigpodcasts.com

In dieser letzten Folge unserer Uganda-Serie erwartet euch ein Gespräch mit einem modernen Hüter des Waldes: Nachdem wir in der vorherigen Folge selbst im Bergregenwald des Bwindi Nationalparks auf Tuchfühlung mit den majestätischen Berggorillas gehen durften, treffen wir nun einen Mann, der wie wenige andere für ihren Schutz steht: Dr. Andrew Seguya.Er ist studierter Tierarzt, war langjähriger Direktor der Uganda Wildlife Authority und leitet heute die Greater Virunga Transboundary Collaboration – eine einzigartige, länderübergreifenden Initiative zum Schutz der letzten Berggorillas im Dreiländereck Uganda, Ruanda und DR Kongo.Dr. Seguya gibt uns faszinierende Einblicke in die Herausforderungen und Erfolge des Artenschutzes in einer mitunter krisengeplagten Region – und zeigt, wie es gelingen kann, Wildtiere, Lebensräume und Menschen gleichermaßen zu schützen. Eine inspirierende Folge über Diplomatie, Visionen, Gemeinschaft und eine große Portion Hoffnung.(Und, ja, streng genommen findet dieser letzte „Uganda-Teil“ gänzlich im benachbarten Ruanda statt, aber da wir uns inhaltlich gänzlich auf unsere Erlebnisse in Uganda beziehen, sind wir so frei und rechnen die Episode der entsprechenden Uganda-Serie zu, deren Abschluss sie bildet.)

Today's True Weird Stuff - Gorillas in the Myth Long before Bigfoot roamed through modern folklore, there was another giant said to haunt the jungles. For centuries, explorers called it a monster, a savage man-beast that couldn’t possibly exist. Then one day, proof was uncovered. From cryptid legend to reality, this is the tale of the gorilla and its emergence from the mythical shadows.
