In honor of Valentine's Day, this week's episode features two stories where love finds a way. Part 1: Scientist Bruce Hungate yearns to find someone who cares about the tiny details as much as he does. Part 2: Science reporter Ari Daniel and his wife are at odds when it comes to moving their family to Lebanon, but the pandemic changes things. Bruce Hungate conducts research on microbial ecology of global change from the cell to the planet. His research examines the imprint of the diversity of life on the cycling of elements, how ecosystems respond to and shape environmental change, and microbial ecology of the biosphere, from soils to hot springs to humans. Bruce is Director of the Center for Ecosystem Science and Society at Northern Arizona University, where he holds the Frances B McAllister Chair in Community, Culture, and the Environment, and is Regents Professor of Biological Sciences. He is an Aldo Leopold Leadership Fellow, Fellow of the Ecological Society of America, Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Sciences, and member of the American Academy of Microbiology. Bruce plays classical piano and writes narrative non-fiction at the intersection of science, the environment, family, and people. He hopes to share ideas about ecology and to find humor, connection, and solutions in the face of global environmental change. Ari Daniel is a freelance contributor to NPR's Science desk and other outlets. He has always been drawn to science and the natural world. As a graduate student, he trained gray seal pups (Halichoerus grypus) for his Master's degree in animal behavior at the University of St. Andrews, and helped tag wild Norwegian killer whales (Orcinus orca) for his Ph.D. in biological oceanography at MIT and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. For more than a decade, as a science reporter and multimedia producer, Ari has interviewed a species he's better equipped to understand — Homo sapiens. Over the years, Ari has reported across six continents on science topics ranging from astronomy to zooxanthellae. His radio pieces have aired on NPR, The World, Radiolab, Here & Now, and Living on Earth. Ari is also a Senior Producer at Story Collider. He formerly worked as a reporter for NPR's Science desk where he covered global health and development. Before that, he was the Senior Digital Producer at NOVA where he helped oversee the production of the show's digital video content. He is a co-recipient of the AAAS Kavli Science Journalism Gold Award for his radio stories on glaciers and climate change in Greenland and Iceland. In the fifth grade, he won the “Most Contagious Smile” award. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Este episodio está elaborado fundamentalmente sobre la revisión científica de Marino et al. titulada "The harmful effects of captivity and chronic stress on thewell-being of orcas (Orcinus orca)" publicada en 2020 en el Journal of Veterinary Behavior.En el episodio hablamos de la evolución de las orcas a lo largo de la historia y en la sección de neurociencia de qué características tienen sus cerebros para que tengan habilidades cognitivas tan peculiares como la empatía, la predicción, la imitación o la transimisión de cultura.Además, en la reflexión ética final comentamos los efectos nocivos de la cautividad en estos animales.

In this week's episode of Right Up Your Algae, Clara and Emily discuss how different Orcas can be pod to pod. From communication differences and hunting tactics to in-depth social relations and sense of self, some scientists argue orcas may have cultures. But what do you think? Emily also dives into the ethics of captivity and gets sentimental about the special place orcas have in her heart.

La aplicación 'Orcinus' permite geolocalizar la situación de estos animales y, además, conocer las novedad de sus movimientos.

Vielleicht habt ihr es schon mitbekommen - in der Straße von Gibraltar kam es im letzten Jahr verhäuft zu Orca-Angriffen auf Segelboote. Eat the rich wohl etwas zu ernst genommen. Kann es überhaupt Rache bei Tieren geben? Wir tauchen ein in das Thema eines der intelligentesten Lebewesen der Erde und klären den ein oder anderen Mythos über diese großen Tiere auf.

The Dolphin Company, owner of the Miami Seaquarium, recently announce plans to release an orca from the Sequarium back into the wild. Many headlines suggest this is a positive story, and indeed, a whale returning to the wild and rejoining their family would be amazing to see. But, is it reality?

In the Southern Ocean, three killer whale ecotypes co-exist which are specialized on different prey species and vary slightly in their visual appearance. Killer whales, also called Orcas, produce a variety of vocalizations, for example whistles, pulsed calls and echolocation clicks. In the sound snippet you hear lots of calls and mainly pulsed calls.

In this week's episode both our storytellers share their experience of that beautiful and magical moment when new life is brought into this world. Part 1: Ed Pritchard inadvertently becomes a leatherback turtle midwife during his first field job. Part 2: Science reporter Ari Daniel's life is influenced by his remarkable grandmother. A native of South Florida, Ed Pritchard has fostered a love for the marine environment since an early age. Ed holds a bachelor's degree in Environmental Science from the University of Florida and a master's degree in Marine Conservation from the University of Miami. As an Interpretive Programs Lead at Miami-Dade County's Eco Division, Ed develops and leads immersive citizen engagement programs that promote awareness and foster stewardship of our local environment, with an emphasis placed on our marine and coastal resources. Ed's ultimate goal is to use effective science communication and education initiatives to inspire the next generation of ocean stewards. Ari Daniel has always been enchanted by the natural world. As a kid, he packed his Wildlife Treasury box full of species cards. As a graduate student, Ari trained gray seal pups (Halichoerus grypus) and helped tag wild killer whales (Orcinus orca). These days, as a science reporter and producer for National Public Radio, NOVA and other outlets, he works with a species he's better equipped to understand — Homo sapiens. Ari has reported on science topics across five continents and is a co-recipient of the AAAS Kavli Science Journalism Gold Award for audio. In the fifth grade, Ari won the “Most Contagious Smile” award. Find him on Instagram at @mesoplodon_ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In an unprecedented finding, marine biologists off the coast of Australia have described three instances where a group of killer whales came together to kill blue whale individuals that are nearly twice their size and weight. The findings put an end to the long-standing debate about whether these giant dolphins do indeed prey on the largest animal on earth. ThePrint's Sandhya Ramesh explains.

This week in Better Than Human the Podcast we tackle the controversial topic of asshole animals. Guess what people? There are some animals that are straight up jerks! So much so that we had to add the following Trigger warning: This episode talks about forced copulation of animals by other animals, it isn't recommended for all listeners.In The Good The Bad The NewsIn the Bad, there are actual idiots out there paying for fake covid vaccine cards when they can just go and get the vaccine for free. What is wrong with people? And men's right groups are mad because South Korean Olympic Archer An San has short hair. Really ... that's how fragile their egos are that short hair offends them. In the Good, a plant that's been right in front of us for years is found to be carnivorous and Olympic medalists share the gold. So what animals do Amber and Jennifer think are assholes? Jennifer 100 percent believes that Otters are not cute and adorable and are straight up necrophilic rapists. Amber hates wasps,  but seriously, who doesn't hate parasites that eat their way out of caterpillars or have way too painful venom. Don't be fooled by bottlenose dolphins or orcas either. Flipper was a fantasy. Want to learn more (cause you really should), listen now wherever podcasts are found. Listener Note: Even at their worst, animals are just animals being themselves, and unlike humans, they do not have the ability to be “evil”. ALL animals deserve respect, and the right to exist in this world.

This week Erica chatted with Kelly Biedenweg professor at Oregon State University in the Department of Fisheries and Wildlife about her publication Mixed emotions associated with orca (Orcinus orca) conservation strategies. Kelly is an interdisciplinary social scientist who evaluates conservation through the lens of psychology, anthropology, sociology, geography, political science, and other disciplines. Her study provide important insight on the role of emotions in Orca conservation.

Our first official episode! We kick the podcast series off with a conversation where we try to answer a question that's had people wondering for years; Do animals have accents? We talk about Cockney ducks, brummy cows and who knew that naked mole rats could sing the national anthem? Not us until we began looking into it, but listen to this episode and you will find out about all of those and more.

DM or email if you have other studies you would like to discuss

This special episode features a series of panel presentations based on recently published peer-reviewed papers about dolphin life expectancy, orca longevity, cetacean dive physiology, and two rebuttals of Marino et al 2019. Panelists Kelly Jaakkola, Kevin Willis, Andreas Fahlman, Heather Hill, Kathleen Dudzinski, & Jason Bruck present data, as well as, commentary on a case study example of a published paper on orca welfare that never should have cleared the peer-review process. Our panel of scientists clarify what we currently know and don't know about two popular species of marine mammals in human care and in the wild across a few key welfare measures. Plus, they discuss at length the problems that occur when previous scientific citations are misused, and unsupported opinion and agendas are passed off as science in peer-reviewed journals.

Hinter Türchen Nr. 18 versteckt sich der Orca, auch Killerwal genannt. Orcinus orca ist dabei gar nicht so ein "Killer" wie alle behaupten. Wir reden darüber, wie Orcas eine "Kultur" an ihre Kälber vererben und dass es verschiedene Ökotypen gibt, die sich auch nicht untereinander paaren. Außerdem schneiden wir kurz das Thema Delfinarien an.

Founded in 1996 in hopes of reuniting one killer whale with her wild cousins, the Orca Conservancy today is focused on preserving the endangered population of Southern Resident Killer Whales (SRKW) that frequent the waters around Seattle and Vancouver part of the year. It's this steadfast mission to prevent the SRKW from extinction that put the Orca Conservancy at odds recently with a well-publicized plan by the Whale Sanctuary Project to build in SRKW waters, a permanent whale holding facility for orcas of mostly Icelandic descent that were born and currently reside in zoos and aquariums.  Orca Conservancy president Shari Tarantino describes the organization's work to save the SRKW by also preserving the endangered chinook salmon, as well as restoring the river and ocean habitats that both species depend upon for their survival. This episode's honest and at times difficult conversation between an anti-captivity leader and a former orca trainer and podcast host shows their perspectives have much in common, especially when it comes to saving SRKW and restoring healthy marine ecosystems. 1:20  History of Orca Conservancy.
