Episode 37 (with Mia Manning Dunmore): let's destigmatise mistakes in wildlife tourism!

We've all made 'mistakes' when it comes to wildlife when travelling (I mean, if you haven't, then a big well done to you!), and no one knows the horror of this better than Mia, who is currently studying for her Masters in primate conservation. Following a degree in psychology, Mia took a round the world trip, where she thought she'd done all the research and unfortunately, it turned out to be misleading in some cases and she fell into some unethical wildlife traps. That guilt fuelled her passion for educating others about wildlife tourism mistakes, and led her to make this episode with me. It is so important that we destigmatise unethical wildlife experiences so that we can move forward with education and understanding!You can find Mia on Instagram.
