Es gibt Orte, die uns verändern, die unseren Blick auf die Welt erweitern und uns dazu inspirieren, einen Unterschied zu machen. Der Alternative Wolf- und Bärenpark Schwarzwald ist einer dieser Orte. Wir waren vor Ort, um uns einen Eindruck davon zu vermitteln, wie gut es den geretteten Wölfen, Bären und Luchsen wirklich geht. Wir trafen Parkleitung und Wildtier Ökologin Sabrina Reimann und sie stellte uns einige ganz besondere Bären, Luchse und Wölfe vor, deren Geschichten uns tief berührt haben. Zudem sprechen wir darüber, warum es noch möglich ist Wildtiere in Privathaushalten zu halten, was sie zu den Wolf- & Bärensichtungen und Konflikten in Deutschland und welche Lösungsansätze es gibt. Wichtig ist ihr ein realistisches Bild von den Tieren darzustellen und nichts zu beschönigen, aber sie auch keinesfalls als Bestien darzustellen. Auch spricht sie darüber, wie der Besuch von Knossi und Sascha Huber war und was sie von Formaten wie 7 vs Wild, Surivival Squad und Co hält, bei denen es zu Wildtierinteraktionen kommt. Natürlich sprechen wir auch über die tägliche Arbeit von ihr und ihrem Team aussieht, warum eine Positivliste Sinn macht, welchen Einfluss Petfluencer und Social Media auf die Wildtierhaltung haben und wie sie es geschafft haben, so einen Park mitten im Schwarzwald zu errichten. Sie verrät uns auch, wie eine der bekanntesten Bärinnen zu ihnen kam - Jurka aka JJ4 (Mutter von "Problembär" Bruno) zu ihnen kam und warum es zu Interaktionen mit Menschen und Tieren kam. Lehnt euch zurück und hört jetzt in diese Folge rein!
Our guest is world renowned conservationist Saengduean 'Lek' Chailert who is recognised for her unwavering commitment to the welfare and conservation of Asian elephants. Lek's work spans more than three decades and her tireless efforts have earned her many accolades, including the esteemed Legion of Honor award. Lek has been instrumental in improving the lives of hundreds of elephants in Asia through the work of the Save Elephant Foundation, which aims to educate elephant owners and promote compassion and respect towards these majestic creatures. In 2003 established Elephant Nature Park in the picturesque Chiang Mai region of Northern Thailand as a permanent home for injured, neglected and elderly elephants. https://www.elephantnaturepark.org/ She continues to raise awareness about the plight of both captive and wild Asian elephants and initiates projects dedicated to improving their well-being throughout Asia. Despite the challenges posed by a male-dominated industry steeped in tradition, Lek remains committed to advancing the welfare of elephants and spends her days at Elephant Nature Park, caring for the rescued herds of elephants and other animals who have found sanctuary there. Lek has an upcoming tour of Australia and New Zealand with her captivating focumentary film "Elephant Mother", and Lek will be present at all the screenings, engaging with audiences during post-screening question and answer sessions. Session details are in the comments. "Elephant Mother" is a captivating documentary that highlights Lek's tireless efforts in championing the welfare and conservation of elephants.

Saengduean “Lek” Chailert was born and raised in Thailand, a place where Asian elephants are commonplace. After her secondary education, Lek started working in tourism, where she saw elephants endure horrific treatment—in circuses, riding parks, and other attractions most visitors to the country think of as benign. It was then that Lek started rescuing elephants, many of them injured and elderly, and relocating them to what is now Elephant Nature Park. The sanctuary is now home to more than 100 Asian elephants rescued from captivity, and Lek has been recognized all over the world for her tireless work. Lek talks to Jay about the rampant exploitation of these animals within Thailand's tourism industry, and how social media has helped in bringing animal abuse to the world's attention.

In late 2014, Kanchan had it pretty good. She had a corporate job with a cushy paycheck and spent her weekends partying, shopping, and traveling. Amazing, right? You'd think so, but she was really unhappy. Kanchan wasn't doing what she loved, or making a difference, and life felt meaningless. She needed a change. So she asked herself: What have I dreamt of doing for a really long time, but never done? The answer was to travel to Thailand and volunteer at an elephant sanctuary in Chiang Mai, started by one of her personal heroes, Lek Chailert. Kanchan love, love, loves animals. And wanted to do something that helped animals. But...she also loved business and believed in the power of businesses to create impact that can't be achieved by traditional charities. https://crumbsandwhiskers.com/our-founder To View This Episode- https://youtu.be/42XdBR3kZUI #CatRescue #Crumbs&Whiskers #WhoKnewInTheMoment? #CatCafe

Kanchan Singh, Founder and CEO of Crumbs & Whiskers, joins Melissa on the mic for our Everyday Woman series. In 2014, Kanchan visited an elephant sanctuary in Thailand that helped reignite her lifelong passion of animal welfare. Upon returning to the states, Kanchan quit her corporate job and opened a kitten and cat cafe called Crumbs & Whiskers, to help reduce euthanasia in shelters. Much to her surprise, Crumbs & Whiskers was a massive hit that attracted an overwhelming amount of public interest, including celebrities and news stations. The more successful her business became, the more her mental health suffered and the impact of her childhood trauma came to the surface.If this episode resonates with you, share it with your friends on social media and tag @mimosasisterhood.
