The duo discussed the conservation challenges bald eagles and birds of prey face and the important role social media websites such as twitch.tv play in spreading conservation awareness. Another topic of conversation was the organization's decision to move away from repopulation and rehabilitation efforts and to focus more on conservation and education efforts.
