Podcasts about saiga

Two decades ago a group of NGOs came together with the government of Kazakhstan to save the dwindling population of saiga antelope living in the enormous Golden Steppe. Since then, the Altyn Dala Conservation Initiative has successfully rehabilitated the saiga (Saiga tatarica) from a population of roughly 30,000 to nearly 4 million. For this effort, it was awarded the 2024 Earthshot Prize in the “protect & restore nature” category. Joining the podcast to discuss this achievement is Vera Voronova, executive director of the Association for the Conservation Biodiversity of Kazakhstan, an NGO involved in the initiative. Voronova details the cultural and technological methods used to bring the saiga back from the brink and to help restore this massive grassland ecosystem. “When [the] initiative [was] started, the saiga would be always like the flagship and the priority species because we did have this emergency case to recover saiga,” she says. “But the whole … picture of restoring the [steppe] was always behind this, and will be now a long term strategy.” Subscribe to or follow the Mongabay Newscast wherever you listen to podcasts, from Apple to Spotify, and you can also listen to all episodes here on the Mongabay website.

As Ice Age Britain thawed, temperatures surged, sea levels rose, and humans and animals faced a fight for survival. But this shift was anything but simple.In this final episode of our Ice Age miniseries, Tristan Hughes is joined by Professor Danielle Schreve to uncover the turbulent end of the last Ice Age in Britain. Discover how mammals like Siberian lemmings and Saiga antelope roamed this icy landscape, how the Younger Dryas cold snap 13,000 years ago reshaped Britain's prehistoric environment, and how early humans adapted to survive it. With echoes for today's climate challenges, this is a story of resilience on the fringes of the Ice Age world.Presented by Tristan Hughes.

Join us on a trip to the Mongolian steppe!You don't need to be a mammal lover to find these creatures fascinating. Saiga antelopes have been around and unchanged since the last ice age when they roamed the Mongolian plains with woolly mammoths. But the saigas haven't had an easy run for the past years. In 2016/2017 a massive disease outbreak that had spilled over from domestic livestock caused them to die by the tens of thousands. This episode's guest, Dr. Enkhtuvshin Shiilegdamba, called Enkee, led the investigations and shares her experience. Enkee has had an impressive career in epidemiology and One Health that brought her to the US to study and research at UC Davis and back to her home country, Mongolia. After many years with the Wildlife Conservation Society, Enkee currently works as a transboundary animal disease specialist consultant for the Worldbank and the FAO. We are taking a speed tour through her career journey and wonderful and challenging experiences she had on the way.

We learn more about it and the history of Genesis Arms. Next up Lefty is joined by Joe and Zach with Aklys Defense to talk about their new 3 pronged flash hider the Dead Ringer and the ZLM 8" barrel, open bolt Saiga 12ga Shotgun Zach designed (Zach's Little Monster). Lefty's co-host this episode is Ton Jones with Airforce Airguns. There are rumblings of new Government rule changes that could affect the Airgun and Airsoft industries - CSPC regulation changes to airsoft & air guns. To point out the key points and to help us better under stand how these potential rules changes will effect the industry the guys invite Tyler Patner, Product Manager +10 other jobs, with Pyramyd Air to go over them and explain what you can do to help prevent this sneaky government overreach from happening.

https://chtbl.com/track/118312/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/talkinglead/akk_s4_ep11_shotguns.mp3 Welcome back to the Talking Lead AK KORNER presented by Century Arms! Joining Lefty this episode to talk about gas operated short stroke shotguns is Mike Whitesides and Lan Nguyen with Dissident Arms and Andrew with Century Arms. The first known AK style shotgun to be made was the Saiga-12 (based off the AK-47/AKM). Production started in 1997 by the Izhmash factory in Russia and then ,6 years later, by the Molot factory with their VEPR-12 shotgun (based of the RPK light machine gun). Relatively speaking, the AK Shotgun is a new firearm and the future is bright. Having a gas operated short stroke action gives the AK shogun advantages over your traditional inertia driven shotguns like the Benelli M4 . Less recoil and faster loading times are a couple that are discussed. However because Lan and Mike have such an deep grasp of these type of shotguns by converting and modifying hundreds of Saiga and Vepr-12 shotguns over the years they give us a unique and detailed breakdown on AK shotguns. Plus we make a big announcement for the next episode, the season 4 finale, of the AK KORNER.

A message about mentoring I'm passionate about mentoring & think it is a high leverage activity for product managers as they develop in their careers. I mentored 76 people in Q1 2022 but have realised I don't scale so am working with a buddy to match mentors & mentees. Sign up here to be a mentor, mentee or both! About this Episode An interview with Sophia Höfling. Sophia is a former Head of Product at Babbel and now co-founder and Head of Product at Saiga, a Berlin-based productivity startup where they're aiming to save people from life admin. Sophia's passionate about life-centred design and collaborative product discovery. We talk about a lot, including: The mission behind Saiga and how they have started with a Wizard of Oz product as they try to work out the most important problems to solve The tricky transition from established product companies to new startup foundership and having to do everything yourself The concept of life-centred design and why we can't just listen to users but have to consider the holistic impact of our products on all stakeholders What to do when your customers don't care about the ethical merits of your product but you want to do the right thing anyway The importance of collaborative, rather than cooperative, product discovery and how to include people from outside the classic product trio in your discovery journey Whether doing all this discovery slows you down, whether that's OK and the importance of timeboxing discovery efforts to avoid getting caught in an infinite loop How to get buy-in for product discovery from sceptical leadership and convince them of the benefits of a good discovery flywheel And much more!

Wo Licht ist, ist auch Schatten. So viel ist klar. Da aber jede Regel auch eine Außnahme braucht, ist manchmal auch gerade da, wo Schatten ist, Licht. In tiefen Hölen, zum Beispiel. In Mooren bei Nacht. Oder in der Tiefsee. Dort finden sich Lebewesen, die wortwörtlich aus sich selbst heraus leuchten. Dieses Phänomen wird als Biolumineszenz bezeichnet, und ist weiter verbreitet, als man im ersten Moment annehmen könnte. Pilze, Fische, Bakterien, Käfer, Fliegenlarven und sogar Haie - unter ihnen allen gibt es biolumineszente Arten, die das Leuchten im Laufe der Evolution immer wieder neu für sich entdeckt haben. Und obwohl viele Wege zum Leuchten führen, ist das prinzipielle Funktionsprinzip immer das gleiche. Wie genau Biolumineszenz funktioniert, wie Licht eigentlich entsteht, und warum man diese Prinzipien auch ganz wunderbar im Labor anwenden kann, klären wir in dieser Folge. Mit dabei: Leuchtende Flitterwochen, ein Nobelpreis, Darwin, der außnahmsweise mal nicht Recht hatte, und  natürlich das ewige Standard- Leuchtprotein GFP.  Licht aus, Augen auf!QuellenMallefet, J., Stevens, D.

We interview world famous Danish mammalogist turned wildlife photographer Mogens Trolle from his home in Copenhagen. Mogens talks about the philosophy that underpins his photography and choice of subjects,  as  well as his earlier work as a wildlife guide then researcher in Brazil. He describes greeting a herd of 3000 migrating Saiga on the Russian steppes and coming face to face with a Jaguar in the Brazilian Pantanal. And he explains why the most sociable primates have the most interesting faces.Notes: The major focus of Mogen's photography in recent years has been primates and his photo of a Proboscis Monkey - The Pose - won the Animal Portraits category of the 2020 Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition. You can follow him on Instagram and Facebook and see more of his wildlife portraits on his homepage. He's also published books on the wildlife of Africa, Greenland and the Galapagos (in Danish), as well as several mammalwatching reports including Mandrills in Gabon and Saiga Antelope on the Russian steppes.

Saiga antelopes were one of the world's most threatened animals following a mass die-off in 2015. But with signs of a saiga baby boom on the steppes of Kazakhstan, it appears conservation efforts have paid off.

When two friends of many years talk to each other they talk straight and direct, they don't hide what they think but they also don't show off by trying to seem clever.  It's A Brown Thing does not seek to talk down to you, educate you or impress you. Parita and Saiqa are talking to each other about the things that are in their min and things in life that interest them. Sometimes they will make you laugh because what they say reminds you of your own life experiences, and sometimes they may make you disagree with them, but in the end what matters is you listen, enjoy the conversation and if you want then to join in. In this second episode, we talk about Ageing Parents, The funny Stories, Parents & Technology, Care for the elderly There is more, but we suggest you listen to find out. Remember if you want to comment or get involved email Parita and Saiga on Isitabrownthing@outlook.com.

The Saiga antelope is a fascinating - albeit tragic- example for Global Governance failure and Western Research Publication Arrogance. While widely distributed in the Asian steppe for millennia, as publicized by George Schaller for the wilderness of Central Asia and Tibetean Plateau region, the Saiga antelope is now critically endangered and went through ~90% population crashes in just the last 20 years or so.

Sie sieht aus wie… Es fällt einem auf Anhieb kein vergleichbares Huftier ein, das so eigentümlich wirkt. Die Saiga Antilope (Saiga tatarica), erinnert mit ihrer skurrilen Rüsselnase an den Fernseh-Alien Alf. Und doch hat alles an ihr einen evolutionären und praktischen Sinn für das Überleben in extremen Lebensräumen. Sie hat die letzten Eiszeiten überlebt und die erbarmungslose Jagd durch den Menschen. Vor einhundert Jahren war sie fast ausgestorben, dann erholten sich ihre Bestände und es schien das schlimmste überstanden. Doch die Freude der Artenschützer war verfrüht. Wegen ihrer begehrten Hörner nahm die Wilderei wieder zu und Epidemien, die wie aus dem Nichts auftauchten, schlugen schwere Schneisen in die Bestände. Heute wird die Saiga Antilope von der Weltnaturschutz Union IUCN als „vom Aussterben bedroht geführt“. Markus Radday, WWF Experte für die Mongolei, berichtet über seine Erfahrungen zum Schutz dieser grazilen Antilopenart, die kaum jemand kennt, mit vielen Details und echter Bewunderung für ihre Überlebensfähigkeit.

Kimika Yoshino returns in this prequel to 'Wizard of Darkness' to play Misa Kuroi before she was famous, or at least before she realized she was a witch. 'Birth of the Wizard' begins in Meiji-era Japan, in a village of former witches and wizards. I say former, because someone seems to have slaughtered them. Skip to the present day, and an archaeologist discovers a mummy from the village. Blissfully unaware that the mummy is, in fact, possessed by an evil spirit (naturally), he runs off, leaving his assistant alone. The mummy comes to life, kills her, and the evil spirit takes over her body. This evil spirit is now searching for Misa, who is protected by a survivor from the original massacre, known only as Saiga It is Misa's destiny to defeat this evil spirit, but she needs Saiga's help to do it.

The critically-endangered Saiga antelope has been on the brink of extinction many times. Today, this relic from the Ice Age is still in danger of being lost forever. Their story is a warning to us about all the other species suffering from similar fates. Show notes HERE

The amazing Saiga Antelope

Det är en underdrift att säga att vi står inför stora miljöproblem nu och i framtiden. Inte undra på att forskare testar allt de möjligen kan komma på. Även sånt som inte fungerar. Alls. Rymdspeglar, kofisar och fejkträd står på agendan i veckans avsnitt, det blir besök på flashback, och Milla undrar vad Sovjetunionens kollaps har med Saiga-antiloper att göra.

We finally talk about Saiga antelope, and the story is way sadder than Jacinta thought it was going to be. Izzy talks about aboriginal languages, and how one group of researchers took a biological approach. Jacinta talks about bad science journalism, and if one in ten people really have cocaine or heroine on their hands. Finally, Izzy tries to boil down the Cambridge Analytica scandle into a four minute segment. Listen in!

This week we’re joined by Joel Berger, a professor at Colorado State University and a senior scientist with the New York-based Wildlife Conservation Society, who recently wrote a commentary for Mongabay arguing that there are too many large mammals like yaks and Saiga antelope living in remote regions (so-called “edge species”) that are wrongfully overlooked by conservation initiatives. Then from Peru, Dr. Andrew Whitworth, a conservation and biodiversity scientist with the University of Glasgow, shares rare recordings he recently made in the field of a critically endangered bird called the Sira Curassow.

The New Horizons spacecraft is one month away from Pluto, but it's already giving us some fuzzy photos. And new findings from the Hubble telescope give some insights into the complex orbits and interactions of Pluto's moons. In the last month around 120,000 Saiga antelopes have died in Kazakhstan, and nobody knows why. Breaking news while we recorded this show - the Philae lander has awoken on Comet 67P after a seven month sleep. The first stage of The Planetary Society's LightSail project has been successfully completed. The small craft unfurled its large solar sail, which uses sunlight for propulsion.

Dan, James, Andy and Anna discuss banana bombs, disappearing lakes and a church for zombies.

Eigentlich wollte Andreas Kieling in der Kasachstanischen Steppe die Geburt der Kälber von Saiga-Antilopen filmen. Statt dessen muss er über Szenen des Grauens berichten: Ein gewaltiges Massensterben setzte plötzlich bei der Art ein.
