We're thinking about bears! Actually one specific type of bear: sun bears! Have you heard about this type of bear? They're the smallest of the world's bears, about half the size of a black bear. They live throughout southeast Asia and have a yellow or white crescent-shaped marking on their chests. We learn about sun bears with Wong Siew Te, a scientist and researcher who runs the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre in Malaysia. Also in this episode: Do bears live in caves? Why do they climb trees? Why do bears hibernate in winter? Naturalist Mary Holland answers questions about hibernation. And we are treated to A Bear Song by Key Wilde and Mr. Clarke!

If you're looking for in-depth analysis into UFO's you won't find it here. Same with sun bears. But Gracie can offer some self-waxing advice. Caitlin can tell you how to celebrate your birthday all by yourself. And Brodie can offer you some pearls of wisdom one week after the great yoni mapping of 2023... Also, an amazing listener question which makes us discuss "losing your virginity" and how it really needs to shut up and just not be a societal expectation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I've always been captivated by the extraordinary wildlife of Borneo, and my recent conversation with Dr. Wong Siew Te, founder of the Borneo Sun Bear Conservation Center (BSBCC), only deepened my appreciation for this biodiverse wonderland. Wong's passion for sun bears, also known as honey bears, and his dedication to their preservation are truly inspiring. Join us as we explore his journey from studying in Taiwan to creating a sanctuary for these unique creatures in the tropical jungles of Borneo.Wong shares his own incredible story, from his early ambitions of working with animals to his eventual foray into wildlife conservation. His experiences in veterinary school, and later his training in wildlife biology, ultimately led him to the establishment of the Borneo Sun Bear Conservation Center. For anyone who feels their dreams are too big to achieve, Wong has some valuable advice to offer.But it's not just about the sun bears; Wong is also committed to working with local communities to ensure a sustainable future for all. We discuss the role of education, community-based conservation efforts, and nature-based tourism in preserving both the bears and their forest home. Learn about an innovative partnership between the honey industry and the Borneo Sun Bear Conservation Center, and how we can all play a part in protecting this precious species. Don't miss this inspiring conversation with Wong Se Tei, a true champion of wildlife conservation.-------TIME STAMP(0:00:08) - Unveiling Nature's Guardians: Wong's Quest to Safeguard Tomorrow's Planet(0:15:21) - From Vet School to Wildlife Warrior: Wong's Extraordinary Journey in Sun Bear Conservation(0:28:49) - Sustainability Pays Off: Wong's Groundbreaking Blueprint for Sun Bear Conservation(0:35:20) - Buzzworthy Campaigns: How Marketing Miracles Are Rescuing Borneo's Sun Bears----Like BSBCC on Facebook: BSBCCFollow Saving Tomorrow's Planet on Instagram: Saving Tomorrow's Planet Subscribe to Saving Tomorrow's Planet Podcast Apple Spotify

Hello and welcome to the second part of our Chester Zoo review! Hosted by Jack Baker and Jodi McFarlane, this show promises to explore, appreciate and highlight the fantastic conservation work of zoos from around the world, while also offering perspective on the visitor experience. Last time we covered everything we discovered at Chester, up to and including our lunch break. Today we are back to discuss the following:
The smallest of the eight-bear species found in the world, sun bears are most easily recognised by their unique yellow, sun-like marking on their chest, which can take on a variety of shapes. Also known as the 'honey bear', these lovely creatures have characteristically long tongues to reach honey from beehives and extract insects from small spaces. But, their numbers are declining mainly due to forest loss and poaching, and sun bears are listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Today, on a new mini-segment called The ABC's of Biodiversity, a series explaining why biodiversity loss is OUR loss, we want to focus on these tiny bears with big personalities and a big impact on our environment. Joining us to do that is Dr Wong Siew Te, a Wildlife biologist and the CEO and Founder of the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre (BSBCC).Image credit: Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre
Sign up for our mailing list! We also have t-shirts and mugs with our logo! Thanks to Enzo and Lux for their suggestions! Let's learn about the sun bear and the water bear this week! Sun bear just chillin: Sun bears got long tongues: The water bear, AKA tardigrade, is not actually a bear. For one thing, it has twice the number of legs as bears have: Show transcript: Welcome to Strange Animals Podcast. I'm your host, Kate Shaw. It's summer in the northern hemisphere, which means hot weather and sunshine and, if you're lucky, a trip to the lake or ocean. To celebrate summertime, let's talk about two animals suggested by Enzo and his sister Lux. They wanted to hear about the sun bear and the water bear. Get it? Sun and water? Enzo's suggestion is the sun bear, which we talked about a little bit way back in episode 76, but which is a fascinating animal that deserves a lot more attention. The sun bear lives in southeast Asia in tropical forests and is most closely related to the black bear. It has silky black fur, although some are gray or reddish, and a roughly U-shaped patch of fur on its chest that varies in color from gold to almost white to reddish-orange. Its muzzle is short and is lighter in color than the rest of its face, usually gray. It has small ears too. It's the world's smallest bear, only around three feet long from head to tail, or 150 cm, and four feet tall when standing on its hind legs, or 1.2 meters. Researchers think its chest spot acts as a threat display. When a sun bear stands on its hind legs, the chest spot is really obvious, which may warn potential predators away. Even so, tigers and leopards will attack and eat sun bears. The sun bear spends a lot of time in trees, more than any other bear. It has long claws that it uses for climbing and to tear open logs to get at insect larvae. It eats a lot of termites and especially loves honey, which it licks from the hive with its long tongue--up to 10 inches long, or 25 cm. It also eats a lot of plant material, especially fruit and acorns. It will catch and eat birds and small animals, or sometimes larger animals like deer, but it mostly eats insects and fruit. The female sun bear makes her den in a hollow tree to give birth. She has one or two cubs at a time, and like other bear cubs they're born extremely small and with their eyes and ears sealed shut. This is the case with animals like dogs and cats too, but newborn bears are tiny compared to how big the mother bear is. The eyes and ears continue developing after the cub is born, but it's a few months before it can see and hear properly. A cub remains with its mother for almost three years. Other than mothers and babies, the sun bear is solitary. Adults don't typically interact except to mate, although adult sun bears kept in captivity will play together. A 2019 study of sun bears came to a surprising conclusion that they communicate with each other by mimicking facial expressions. This is something humans do all the time, of course, and apes do too. Dogs also mimic facial expressions. Humans, apes, and dogs are all intensely social animals, so researchers have always assumed that the mimicking of facial expressions is important because of that sociability. I mean, that just makes sense. If you see a friend approaching and they have a big smile on their face, naturally you're going to smile too. But here are these solitary bears with facial communication just as well-developed as in apes. Researchers think it may be a trait that's so important to mammals as a whole that it develops even in species that don't spend a lot of time interacting. The sun bear is threatened by habitat loss and hunting, but it does well in captivity and is popular in zoos. Conservation efforts are in place to protect the sun bear in the wild as well as continue a healthy captive breeding program around the world. Lux wanted to hear about the water bear,
Dr. (Hon) Wong Siew Te, founded the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre in 2008. One of the few Malaysian wildlife biologists who was trained in Taiwan and U.S.A., Wong has been studying and working on the ecological conservation of the sun bear since 1998. His pioneering studies of sun bears in the Bornean rainforest have taken him into the most threatened wildlife habitats on Earth, where field work is exceedingly difficult. Seeing sun bears in dreadful captive conditions inspired Wong to set up the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre in 2008. We cover all this in detail as well as the recently released book that has been written by Australian Author Sarah Pye about Wong's life and his quest to save the Sun bears. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Find the show notes here ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ *** SOCIALIZE WITH US *** Website Instagram Facebook Twitter YouTube
