Have a beer on the golden lion tamarinIn the podcast, Dr. Romano introduces us to golden lion tamarins and why they are in special need of our attention as endangered species. We weave between discussions in the studio and interviews done in Brazil with five conservation scientists, including Dr. Luis Paulo Ferraz, Dr. Carlos Ruiz-Miranda, Dr. Jenniffer Mickelberg, Dr. Marcos Freire, and Dr. James Dietz. Each brings a unique perspective and a unique contribution to the conservation of this endangered species. You can also hear about various ways in which you can support their conservation (e.g. beers for conservation!).We'd like to thank all of our guests, who generously shared their tme and expertise with us for this program.Photo Credits: Valeria Romano / Save the Golden Lion Tamarins (www.savetheliontamarin.org)The PrimateCast is hosted and produced by Andrew MacIntosh.
