  • Ep. 9 | Musician to Conservationist with Jon Rossi Part 1
    Today is Part 1 of a 2 part series with Jon Rossi of the Rossifari Podcast. If COVID turned your life upside down like I know it has so many of us, then you’ll definitely relate to Jon’s story. Jon is a professional drummer with a very successful career touring across the US sharing his talents. But when COVID hit, all of his work – and his strongest passion – were ripped away from him. While on the road, Jon found joy visiting zoos and aquariums to escape from negative influences that were all around him. In doing so, he met lots of amazing animals and zookeepers, which became a podcast idea shortly after he was locked down at home. He found a new passion and a new title – conservation educator. 
    If you’ve ever thought about doing something that maybe was in a different field or outside your expertise, or you need some encouragement to finally tackle that one idea you’ve had for years, then you must listen to this show. 
    If you would like me to keep this 2-part episode format, please let me know by sending a DM on Instagram (@rewildology) or emailing me at [email protected]. I’d love to hear from you and if you’re digging the new style.

  • #8 | East Africa’s Conservation X-Factor with Judith Wanda

    In this episode, I’m chatting with Judith Wanda, who is the International Relations Director and an Assistant Professor at St Augustine University of Tanzania. She has been through more than you can imagine. She was orphaned at a young age after losing both of her parents, and her and her brother found strength through education. Her surviving family members encouraged her to work as hard as she could through her studies to become more than just a village girl. And that she did. She studied internationally and lived abroad for a decade before returning to East Africa to make a greater impact in young women’s lives. She explains the importance of including local women in conservation initiatives and what tourists can do to both impact themselves and local communities.

  • #7 | Conservation & Congress with Hailey Hawkins

    Have you ever wondered how a species gains protection in Congress or what the process is for getting an area or species listed? I’ve asked myself these questions several times, and so I connected with my good friend Hailey Hawkins to learn more.

    Hailey works for the Endangered Species Coalition and works with the public and political leaders to put conservation into legal action. We dive deep into the process of listing a species and discuss next steps for reintroducing wolves into Colorado. She also opens up about her battle with mental health struggles and shares her coping strategies.

    We drank lots of wine and had a blast recording this one for you all. Let me know what you think of this episode by reaching out at rewildolgy.com and don’t forget to subscribe and review on your favorite streaming app.
