Meet some of Antarctica's iconic species – emperor penguins and Weddell seals – and learn how they use the ice. Just outside Scott Base the sea ice squashes up against Ross Island, creating towering shapes and cracks in the ice.   These are called pressure ridges, and they are a nice, sheltered space for the Weddell seals to hang out and look after their newborn pups.   Claire Concannon tags along with University of Canterbury PhD candidate Arek Aspinwall to learn more about the seals, and about his research.

Dependiente de la Fuerza Aérea Argentina, fundada el 29 de octubre de 1969, es la principal puerta de entrada de la logística argentina en la Antártida y desde ella se despliega el mayor número de campamentos científicos durante la Campaña Antártica de Verano. Su nombre, así como el de la Isla en la que se encuentra, honra al piloto de la Fuerza Aérea Argentina, Gustavo Argentino Marambio, que en 1951 voló con el avión Avro Lincoln "Cruz del Sur" desde Río Gallegos hasta la Base San Martín realizando un aerolanzamiento para su reaprovisionamiento de emergencia. La historia de la Base comienza en noviembre de 1968 cuando la Fuerza Aérea realiza estudios de los suelos sobre la meseta de la Isla Vicecomodoro Marambio, situada en el Mar de Weddell, con el fin de instalar una base sobre ella, debido a la necesidad de contar con una pista de aviación operable durante todo el año para aparatos con ruedas. El 30 de agosto de 1969, un grupo de trabajo de la Fuerza Aérea Argentina denominado "Patrulla Soberanía" instaló un campamento sobre la meseta y comenzó la construcción de la pista. Luego de algunas semanas de trabajo un avión DHC-2 Beaver aterrizaba en la pista de 300 metros de largo. Para fines de octubre de ese año se alcanzaron los 800 metros y un avión Fokker F-27 despegó de Río Gallegos aterrizando en Marambio, siendo ésta la primera aeronave que, procedente de otro continente, aterrizaba y despegaba en la Antártida utilizando tren de aterrizaje convencional. El 11 de abril de 1970 se logró un nuevo hito cuando el primer C-130 Hércules aterrizó con ruedas en la nueva base. Además de su importancia logística, Marambio se ha constituido en un polo de actividad científica. En sus instalaciones el Servicio Meteorológico Nacional brinda un completo estudio de las condiciones meteorológicas de la zona como parte de la red mundial de meteorología, contribuyendo también a través de radiosondeos meteorológicos y de la capa de ozono, de radiación solar y análisis nuboso de la atmósfera. En la base desarrolla su labor científica el personal de la Dirección Nacional del Antártico - Instituto Antártico Argentino (DNA-IAA) que durante todo el año y especialmente en verano es distribuido, por medio de aviones y helicópteros de la Fuerza Aérea Argentina, a las zonas de estudio e instalación de campamentos que realizan trabajos de estratigrafía, sedimentología, glaciología, criología, petrografía, biología, arqueología histórica y paleontología, la cual ocupa un rol destacado debido a la riqueza de restos fósiles en la isla. El Laboratorio Antártico Multidisciplinario Marambio (LAMBI), que forma parte de la base, inició sus actividades en 1994 y en él se obtienen registros de ozono en un programa conjunto con el Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Aeroespacial de España (INTA).

C'est le seul vertébré connu dont le sang est transparent. Les poissons des glaces (Channichthyidés pour les intimes, environ 15 espèces) font partie des rares espèces de poissons capables de vivre des eaux où la température est légèrement négative, autour de l'Antarctique ! Leur sang est transparent car il ne contient pas d'hémoglobine ni de globule rouge.Comment font-ils pour respirer du coup ? Le dioxygène, très soluble dans l'eau à basse température, est directement absorbé par la peau et transporté dans le plasma à l'état dissous. Grâce à un grand cœur, le débit et le volume sanguin de ce type de poissons sont plus importants que chez la plupart des autres espèces de poissons. Icefish, as-tu du coeur ? Certainement. Ces hibernatus se nourrissent de krill, d'autres crevettes et de fretin.Ces champions ont un autre record : celui de la densité de nids. En 2021, une colonie de 60 millions de nids du Poisson des glaces de Jonas (Neopagetopsis ionah) a été découverte à 300 m de profondeur par des scientifiques de l'Institut Alfred-Wegener en mer de Weddell. C'est tout simplement la plus grande frayère connue à ce jour.

La Russie aurait découvert une importante quantité de pétrole, l'équivalent de 511 milliards de barils sur ce continent situé autour du pôle Sud. Une convention internationale protège toute exploitation de l'Antarctique, mais cette découverte pourrait la remettre en question. L'information a été dévoilée par le magazine américain Newsweek, qui affirme que cette découverte a été faite par un navire de prospection russe, dont l'activité a été documentée notamment lors de son passage en Afrique du Sud et dont les résultats de recherche ont été présentés au comité d'audit de l'environnement de la Chambre des Communes du Parlement britannique. Les forages auraient eu lieu en mer de Weddell, un territoire que les Britanniques revendiquent au même titre que le Chili et l'Argentine.Moscou, de son côté, se défend et explique que les études conduites par le navire Alexander Karpinsky seraient uniquement scientifiques. Le bateau a pourtant été affrété par Rosgeo, l'agence chargée d'identifier de nouvelles réserves géologiques à des fins commerciales. La Grande-Bretagne questionne donc sérieusement les ambitions de Moscou. Des députés britanniques ont même affirmé que « ces études pourraient être un préalable à l'introduction d'appareils de forage » pour exploiter cette région inhabitée et vierge de 1,7 million de km2. La Russie, on le sait, a besoin de revenus pour nourrir son économie de guerre.Activité minière interditeLe traité sur l'Antarctique de 1959 interdit strictement l'exploration et l'exploitation d'hydrocarbures dans cette région du monde. De plus, la convention de Madrid de 1991 et le consensus d'interdiction de toute activité minière de 1998 interdisent jusqu'en 2048 l'exploitation du sous-sol de l'Antarctique. Mais tout État peut retirer sa signature et ne plus être soumis aux engagements du traité. La Russie pourrait donc contourner ces interdictions. La Chine pourrait aussi vouloir réclamer sa part du gâteau : Pékin vient d'ouvrir sa cinquième station en Antarctique et cherche aussi à renforcer sa présence dans cette région, officiellement, là aussi, pour des raisons scientifiques. L'enjeu commercial est vertigineux : les réserves de pétrole annoncées par les Russes pourraient permettre de produire jusqu'à 511 milliards de barils de pétrole ; à titre de comparaison, le monde entier consomme environ 36 milliards de barils par an, selon l'Energy Institute Statistical Review of World Energy de 2023. Il y aurait donc de quoi assouvir la soif de pétrole et de gaz du monde entier pendant au moins quarante ans.Catastrophe écologiqueAujourd'hui, l'Antarctique est d'abord victime du réchauffement climatique : l'ouest de la péninsule est l'une des régions connaissant le réchauffement le plus rapide de la planète et la couche de glace de l'Antarctique représente environ 61% de la totalité de l'eau douce sur Terre. Si cette couche devait fondre intégralement, cela conduirait à une élévation de 58 mètres du niveau de la mer, une catastrophe écologique.Pour dire les choses plus simplement, c'est là une très mauvaise nouvelle à tous les points de vue. Une telle réserve de carburants fossiles va, en effet, rendre d'autant plus difficile l'arrêt de la dépendance au pétrole et au gaz dont la demande et toujours aussi importante. Or, à l'issue de la dernière COP, le texte final a mis en avant la nécessaire transition hors des énergies fossiles. Ce qui reste rassurant, c'est le fait qu'exploiter des hydrocarbures en Antarctique seraient très coûteux et probablement assez peu rentable, ce qui pourrait freiner les investissements sur place.À lire aussiQuelles ambitions chinoises dans l'Antarctique?

Contrairement à ce que l'on pourrait penser, l'Antarctique n'est pas entièrement recouvert par la glace. En effet, de larges trous s'y forment, que les scientifiques nomment des "polynies".Il s'agit d'espaces d'eaux libres, cernés par la glace. Ils jouent un rôle essentiel dans l'équilibre naturel de la région. En effet, ils représentent un milieu de vie très apprécié de certaines espèces d'oiseaux ou de mammifères marins.La présence de ces trous d'eau peut aussi influencer le climat, non seulement de l'Antarctique, mais encore du reste de la planète.Les scientifiques ont beau connaître ce phénomène, ils n'ont pas manqué d'être intrigué par la découverte d'un trou d'eau particulier. En effet, si ce trou, nommé "polynie de Maud Rise", a attiré leur attention, c'est en raison de sa taille exceptionnelle.Située dans la mer de Weddell, cette polynie est passée tout d'un coup d'une superficie de 9.500 km2 à plus de 80.000 km2. Soit plus de deux fois la taille de la Belgique ! D'où pouvait venir une croissance aussi subite, et d'une telle ampleur ?Le phénomène peut s'expliquer de plusieurs manières. En premier lieu, des courants marins, présents dans la mer de Weddell, amènent une remontée d'eau chaude, ce qui provoque une fonte des glaces. Le renforcement de ces courants est un premier facteur d'explication.La formation de ce gigantesque trou est également liée à l'action des vents. Dans cette région, en effet, ils forment ce que les spécialistes appellent la "spirale d'Ekman". Ces vents entraînent des tourbillons, qui font remonter vers la surface les couches d'eau profondes, plus salées.Le sel s'amasse alors sur les bords du trou, empêchant l'eau de geler. De sorte que le trou ne peut pas se refermer. La découverte de cette polynie ne semble rien augurer de bon pour l'avenir.En effet, d'après les spécialistes, les vents soufflant sur l'Antarctique pourraient se renforcer de manière notable. Leur action pourrait ainsi contribuer à la formation de nombreux trous dans une glace de plus en plus fragilisée. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

featured Wiki of the Day

fWotD Episode 2513: Pinniped Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Friday, 22 March 2024 is Pinniped.Pinnipeds (pronounced ), commonly known as seals, are a widely distributed and diverse clade of carnivorous, fin-footed, semiaquatic, mostly marine mammals. They comprise the extant families Odobenidae (whose only living member is the walrus), Otariidae (the eared seals: sea lions and fur seals), and Phocidae (the earless seals, or true seals), with 34 extant species and more than 50 extinct species described from fossils. While seals were historically thought to have descended from two ancestral lines, molecular evidence supports them as a monophyletic lineage (descended from one ancestral line). Pinnipeds belong to the suborder Caniformia of the order Carnivora; their closest living relatives are musteloids (weasels, raccoons, skunks and red pandas), having diverged about 50 million years ago.Seals range in size from the 1 m (3 ft 3 in) and 45 kg (100 lb) Baikal seal to the 5 m (16 ft) and 3,200 kg (7,100 lb) southern elephant seal. Several species exhibit sexual dimorphism. They have streamlined bodies and four limbs that are modified into flippers. Though not as fast in the water as dolphins, seals are more flexible and agile. Otariids use their front limbs primarily to propel themselves through the water, while phocids and walruses use their hind limbs. Otariids and walruses have hind limbs that can be pulled under the body and used as legs on land. By comparison, terrestrial locomotion by phocids is more cumbersome. Otariids have visible external ears, while phocids and walruses lack these. Pinnipeds have well-developed senses—their eyesight and hearing are adapted for both air and water, and they have an advanced tactile system in their whiskers or vibrissae. Some species are well adapted for diving to great depths. They have a layer of fat, or blubber, under the skin to keep warm in cold water, and, other than the walrus, all species are covered in fur.Although pinnipeds are widespread, most species prefer the colder waters of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. They spend most of their lives in water, but come ashore to mate, give birth, molt or to avoid ocean predators, such as sharks and orcas. Seals mainly live in marine environments but can also be found in fresh water. They feed largely on fish and marine invertebrates; a few, such as the leopard seal, feed on large vertebrates, such as penguins and other seals. Walruses are specialized for feeding on bottom-dwelling mollusks. Male pinnipeds typically mate with more than one female (polygyny), although the degree of polygyny varies with the species. The males of land-breeding species tend to mate with a greater number of females than those of ice breeding species. Male pinniped strategies for reproductive success vary between defending females, defending territories that attract females and performing ritual displays or lek mating. Pups are typically born in the spring and summer months and females bear almost all the responsibility for raising them. Mothers of some species fast and nurse their young for a relatively short period of time while others take foraging trips at sea between nursing bouts. Walruses are known to nurse their young while at sea. Seals produce a number of vocalizations, notably the barks of California sea lions, the gong-like calls of walruses and the complex songs of Weddell seals.The meat, blubber and skin of pinnipeds have traditionally been used by indigenous peoples of the Arctic. Seals have been depicted in various cultures worldwide. They are commonly kept in captivity and are even sometimes trained to perform tricks and tasks. Once relentlessly hunted by commercial industries for their products, seals are now protected by international law. The Japanese sea lion and the Caribbean monk seal have become extinct in the past century, while the Mediterranean monk seal and Hawaiian monk seal are ranked as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Besides hunting, pinnipeds also face threats from accidental trapping, marine pollution, climate change and conflicts with local people.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:32 UTC on Friday, 22 March 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Pinniped on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Justin Neural.

Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica is massive, bigger than the state of Florida. If it collapses, it could reshape every coast on this planet during this century. That's why it's sometimes known as “the Doomsday Glacier.”And yet, until recently, we knew very little about it. Because Thwaites is extremely remote, reachable only by crossing the wildest ocean on the planet, scientists had never observed its calving edge firsthand. In 2019, a ground-breaking international mission set out to change that, and writer Elizabeth Rush was on board to document the voyage.  We caught up with her to learn about life on an Antarctic icebreaker, how she grappled with classic Antarctic narratives about exploration (and domination), and how she summons hope even after coming face-to-face with Thwaites.     Featuring Elizabeth Rush. SUPPORTOutside/In is made possible with listener support.

Este episodio especial reúne lo más destacado de la serie en un viaje desde el Ártico hasta la Antártida. Comenzamos en el Océano Ártico congelado. Es el final del invierno, y cuando vuelve el sol, dos osos polares se encuentran en el hielo. Generalmente animales solitarios, estos dos osos jóvenes parecen abiertos a la amistad, y juntos disfrutan de varias horas jugando juntos, aparentemente bailando sobre hielo. En la costa de Groenlandia, el hielo del Ártico tiene un propósito muy importante: es un criadero de crías de foca arpa. Las focas arpa pasan solo 12 días con su madre, bebiendo su leche y aprendiendo la lección más importante de su vida: cómo nadar. Al sur del Océano Ártico se encuentran vastas tierras heladas de bosques cubiertos de nieve y una vasta tundra abierta que rodea el globo. Las temperaturas aquí pueden caer a -40C, y las condiciones son tan extremas que muchos animales tienen que hacer todo lo posible para sobrevivir. Aquí nos encontramos con una súper manada de lobos: 25 fuertes, una de las más grandes jamás registradas. Deben trabajar juntos para acabar con la única presa sustancial disponible para ellos en esta época del año, el bisonte americano. Mientras que los lobos dependen de la seguridad en número en estos mundos fríos y hostiles, en la fría estepa de gran altitud de Mongolia, un gato de Pallas se enfrenta solo a la vida. Puede que tenga el pelaje más denso de todos los gatos del mundo, pero también tiene las patas más cortas, lo que hace que la caza de presas en la nieve sea un desafío. Los mundos congelados se encuentran en todos los continentes de la Tierra, gracias a nuestras montañas. Cuanto más asciendes en estos mundos fríos de gran altitud, más impredecibles se vuelven. Las águilas reales viven en las montañas todo el año, sobreviviendo con presas tanto vivas como muertas. En primavera, cuando las gamuzas vecinas tienen crías, es un momento oportuno para que las águilas críen a sus polluelos. Cazan en tándem, uno dispersando a la manada y el otro abalanzándose sobre la captura. Pero a medida que crecen las crías de gamuza, las condiciones se vuelven más desafiantes hasta que, en otoño, un par de águilas reales deciden cazar presas mucho más grandes que ellas. La gran altitud permite que el frío gobierne en los lugares más improbables, como el Monte Kenia, cerca del ecuador en África. Aquí, una madre camaleón debe refugiarse durante la noche mientras las temperaturas caen en picado, pero durante el día debe correr para alimentarse y reproducirse. En el extremo sur, llegamos al lugar más frío de la Tierra: la Antártida, todo un continente cubierto de hielo. Incluso en verano, sus aguas están llenas de millones de témpanos de hielo, el lugar perfecto para que las focas de Weddell se acerquen después de una noche de alimentación. Pero ellos no están solos. Con la estrategia de caza más sofisticada de cualquier animal, una manada de orcas tiene una forma ingeniosa de atrapar comida que descansa sobre el hielo. Nuestro viaje termina en el invierno más frío y oscuro de la Tierra, cuando los polluelos de pingüino emperador se enfrentan a una de las crianzas más duras del planeta.

La Antártida es el más hostil de todos los mundos helados de la tierra. Sin embargo, incluso aquí, entre algunas de las condiciones más desafiantes del planeta, la vida encuentra una manera no solo de sobrevivir, sino también de prosperar. Nuestro viaje comienza en el extremo más alejado del continente, en sus remotas islas subantárticas. Aquí nos encontramos con pingüinos rey que, para alimentarse en el mar, deben enfrentarse al peligro de las feroces focas leopardo que acechan en las aguas poco profundas. En otra isla, somos testigos por primera vez de machos de albatros errante de las Antípodas que se asocian entre sí mientras las hembras de su población están desapareciendo debido a la actividad pesquera. Dirigiéndonos hacia el continente de la Antártida, atravesamos los mares más agitados de la tierra, el Océano Antártico, donde encontramos la ballena azul antártica rara vez filmada, el animal más grande que jamás haya existido. En el borde de la Antártida, el mar está tan frío que se congela, creando una plataforma de hielo vital para que una madre foca de Weddell críe a su precioso cachorro. Aún así, ella necesita protegerlo de los machos agresivos. En primavera, la costa de la Antártida está libre de nieve, atrayendo a miles de pingüinos barbijo reproductores. Las piedras son muy valiosas para construir sus nidos elevados y proteger a los polluelos del agua de deshielo. Pero robar es un lugar común y, para empeorar las cosas, con el cambio climático encontramos pollitos tiritando de hipotermia: un calentamiento de la Antártida significa un aumento del agua de deshielo. Otros residentes también se enfrentan a un futuro incierto, incluidas las orcas que bañan las olas. Descubrimos que sus presas favoritas, las focas de Weddell, ahora son más difíciles de alcanzar, por lo que están recurriendo a presas mucho más luchadoras, incluidas las focas leopardo, un depredador ápice por derecho propio. Este encuentro dramático nunca ha sido filmado antes. Viajando al interior del continente -al corazón helado de la Antártida- nos encontramos con grandes sorpresas. Esta es una de las regiones más volcánicas de la tierra y una de las más secas. Revelamos dunas de arena inesperadas, escondidas en un raro valle libre de hielo. Luego, en las cimas de las montañas expuestas, que sobresalen del interior cubierto de hielo, encontramos pequeños petreles de las nieves, que crían a sus polluelos más al sur que cualquier otra ave, ¡y defienden su territorio vomitando proyectiles! La mayor revelación se encuentra en las profundidades del interior, debajo de la superficie de un lago cubierto de hielo, donde descubrimos antiguas estructuras parecidas a alienígenas, estromatolitos gigantes, construidas por formas de vida primitivas. Si la vida puede llegar aquí, en los extremos de la Antártida, surge la posibilidad de que la vida pueda existir en otros lugares, incluso en los lagos helados de planetas distantes.

Viajando de polo a polo, revelamos los sorprendentes mundos helados que existen en todo el planeta y los extraordinarios animales que los convierten en su hogar. Comenzamos nuestro viaje en el extremo sur, en el lugar más hostil de la tierra, el continente helado de la Antártida. Después de criarse en el hielo en invierno, los polluelos de pingüino emperador son abandonados por sus padres en primavera. Para sobrevivir, deben encontrar su propio camino a través del traicionero hielo marino hacia las ricas aguas del Océano Antártico. Las aguas que rodean la Antártida pueden ser las más ricas de todas, pero también son el hogar de un depredador excepcionalmente sofisticado, la orca. Para llegar a su presa favorita, las focas de Weddell, una familia de orcas ha aprendido a generar sus propias olas, lavando las focas de sus témpanos de hielo. Es una técnica que se ha transmitido de generación en generación y está coordinada por la matriarca de la familia, que puede tener más de 100 años. Dejando la Antártida y viajando hacia el norte, descubrimos hábitats helados creados por la altitud. El mayor de ellos es el Himalaya, la cadena montañosa más alta de la tierra, que contiene tanto hielo y nieve que se conoce como el tercer polo. A la sombra del Himalaya se encuentra una vasta llanura cubierta de hierba helada que alberga al gato más esponjoso del mundo, el gato de Pallas. Puede tener un pelaje extremadamente denso, pero si quiere sobrevivir al invierno de Mongolia, necesita atrapar muchos jerbos y campañoles. Es más fácil decirlo que hacerlo cuando solo tienes patas cortas y patas sensibles al frío. Al norte de la Gran Estepa se encuentra el bosque boreal, que rodea los continentes de América del Norte, Europa y Asia, y permanece helado durante seis meses al año. Merodeando por estos bosques en el lejano oriente de Rusia se encuentra el tigre siberiano, el felino más grande del mundo. En invierno, está atento a los osos negros que hibernan en las cuevas, una estrategia de alto riesgo que solo un gato de este tamaño intentaría. Por encima del bosque boreal, cruzamos hacia el Círculo Polar Ártico, donde las condiciones se vuelven tan extremas que los árboles ya no pueden crecer. Esta es la tundra. Viviendo aquí hay reliquias de la última edad de hielo, buey almizclero. En primavera, sus crías se enfrentan a un peligro mucho mayor que los fríos osos pardos. Los encuentros pueden ser brutales, pero si solo unos pocos terneros sobreviven al desafío, el futuro de la manada está asegurado. Al norte de la tundra se encuentra el Océano Ártico, el único océano que puede congelarse por completo. Aquí vive uno de los animales más peculiares de la tierra, la foca encapuchada. Los machos tienen narices inflables extraordinarias, que producen un globo rojo brillante de sus fosas nasales izquierdas. Un macho espera que esto lo haga irresistible. Todos los hábitats congelados comparten una cosa en común: la amenaza que representa el cambio climático actual. Viajando a la isla de Groenlandia, hogar del cuerpo de hielo más grande del hemisferio norte, somos testigos de cómo el calentamiento global está derritiendo su capa de hielo a un ritmo más rápido que nunca, con profundas consecuencias para los niveles globales del mar. Por último, visitamos al residente más icónico del Ártico, el oso polar, mientras una madre osa lucha por mantener a sus cachorros en un mundo de hielo marino cada vez más pequeño.

Marine scientists need all the help they can get. Exploring the oceans is hard and expensive. In recent years, though, they've gotten help from some special research assistants: marine mammals. They attach small cameras or instruments to seals, whales, and other animals. Their journeys tell us a lot about ocean conditions, ocean life, and the animals themselves. One recent example is a project that used Weddell seals to study conditions below and near the ice sheets in East Antarctica. The waters there are among the most productive on the planet—the result of interactions between the ice and the ocean water. Strong winds during fall and winter appear to make the waters even more productive, enhancing the abundant life. It's almost impossible to explore that region during the winter, though. So, a team of scientists glued small instruments to the heads of eight Weddell seals. The instruments recorded temperature, salinity, and depth. When the seals came to the surface, the observations were relayed through a satellite. The instruments operated from March to September of 2017. They showed that the seals traveled up to 400 miles from shore, and reached depths of a third of a mile. They also revealed that warmer, fresher water flowed into the ocean in late fall, and expanded into deeper waters in winter. That appeared to boost the food supply for the seals. The test also demonstrated that seals make good research assistants—going where scientists can't.

How much do you think popular media such as movies and TV Shows impact tourism? That's one of the questions researched by Melissa Weddell and her team at the University of Montana. Melissa joins Adam on today's episode to talk about how "Yellowstone", Paramount's hit TV show that's filmed in Montana, impacts tourism in the state. Listen to learn more about the show's means for visitation, economics and housing in Montana. "Yeah, when something comes this popular, there's a lot of tension. And people are like, you know, 'it's too crowded, there's too many people' and other people are like, 'we need more films, this is great, we need more'. I think those are the struggles" - Melissa Weddell Follow the Destination Marketing Podcast on social media: Instagram Twitter YouTube TikTok If you're enjoying the show, please leave us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!
