On this bonus episode of CFAA, we speak with Allyson Shaw, an editor and writer at National Geographic Kids.  In this interview we learn about “comeback critters,” animals that were struggling but are now doing a lot better because of human intervention, as well as animals that still really need our help.  We also talk about the dangers and benefits of plastic, and practical tips to reduce plastic consumption.

This episode is FULL of tips on how kids can help protect animals.  We’d love to hear some of the tips you found most inspiring, and which going to try to do yourselves!  You can tweet us at @coolanimalspod or email us at [email protected], and we will send you a bookmark!

Thanks as always for listening, and we will back soon with our regular format.
