The Wild Bits Show

Plastics inside everyone and everything


Listen Later

In this episode of The Wild Bits Show, we explore how plastics have infiltrated every corner of the planet. From the deepest oceans to the stomachs of Amazon tree-dwelling monkeys. What does it mean when microplastics show up in supposedly protected wildlife?

We also dive into stories that blur the line between innovation and interference — a sloth bear in India fitted with a prosthetic limb, and a butterfly given a new chance at flight through a delicate wing transplant. How far should humans go in reshaping nature?

This conversation goes beyond headlines — it’s about responsibility, balance, and what it truly means to coexist with the world we’ve changed.
