Episode #27: Saving Vultures

In this episode, I interview my good friend, Dr. Munir Virani. He's the Vice President for Conservation Strategy and External Affairs at The Peregrine Fund. We discuss Asian and African Vultures and why they are considered one of the most threatened groups of animals on the planet. Threats we cover include human/animal conflict, poisoning, poaching, and use on the black market. Dr. Virani also recounts his terrifying encounters with lions and a lone buffalo.For more information, please visit http://www.peregrinefund.orgDr. Virani's TED Talk "Why I Love Vultures" https://www.ted.com/talks/munir_virani_why_i_love_vulturesDr. Virani and Corbin Maxey's "Through The Eyes Of A Vulture" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB-0vq8BN_cFollow Corbin MaxeyYouTube: https://goo.gl/ZbuBnRInstagram: https://goo.gl/NDYWFF Twitter: https://goo.gl/F4zVfNFacebook: https://goo.gl/ZsE1SP
