I tell a story about how Jord and I narrowly avoided getting shot before introducing Tanya Loos – local treasure and legendary naturalist – for a deep and meaningful chat about wild life, and all life. We cover:

• How to be a nature positive pet owner
• Are cats evil?
• How to save a bunch of lives
• Gardens as habitat
• The housing crisis facing possums (and other critters)
• How to recklessly pursue your passion and make it your profession
• GETTING THE ANIMALS ON THE ARK
• How to avoid roadkill (even frogs)
• Bee feelings + monogamous lizards
• The intersection between conservation, permaculture & animal welfare
• Patreon Qs
• 24/7 nature connection
• Beetle Pace
