Puffins, sea slugs and Atlantic diving with Jill Taylor

Who doesn’t love puffins?! In this episode, host Megan Leslie sits down with science communicator Jill Taylor. Jill is a Halifax-based biologist who researches the social behaviour of Atlantic puffins. Beyond her research, Jill has built a massive online following, sharing the beauty of Atlantic ecosystems, her love of scuba diving, and (of course) plenty of puffin antics. Jill and Megan get into the surprisingly complex world of Atlantic puffins: what makes them so distinctive, how they navigate life at sea and on land, and why scientists once believed they were actually two completely different birds. Plus, Jill recounts her adventures diving in the Atlantic and Megan discovers a new passion for sea slugs.  But first, Megan checks in with WWF-Canada’s resident botanist Ryan Godfrey to talk about why coyotes actually belong in cities.  Follow Jill on Instagram @_jill_taylor or on TikTok @jill.dives To stay up to date on what’s going on at WWF-Canada, sign up for Living Planet News: https://wwf.ca/signup-for-living-planet-news/ To leave Megan a voice message, go to https://www.speakpipe.com/wwfgoodnature.
