CC E#08 Conserving our Cousins: Saving the Great Apes

from Conservation Crossroads Hosted by Carla Archibald & Rachel Friedman

In this weeks episode of #ConservationCrossroads we're gorilla-ing two experts working on the front line of Great Ape conservation! We start by talking with Courtney Morgans from The University of Queensland about Orangutan conservation in Indonesia. We speak with Dr Johannes Refisch from the Great Ape Survival Partnership (or GRASP) to provide us with the bigger picture of the status of great ape conservation and why the United Nations has gotten involved in their protection. Join the conversation on Twitter by tagging Carla @CarlaWildlife, Rachel @YumMusings or #ConservationCrossroads!
