Today, the Safari continues our times hanging out in Florida by visiting the Lemur Conservation Foundation!  We talk about this incredible conservation organization, sitting down with Caitlin, the curator of primates, and Lauren, the senior keeper at the reserve.  That's right, y'all!  Along with doing research and conservation work for lemurs, there is also a population of lemurs that lives at the foundation, many of which have access to multiple forests in which they are allowed to roam freely!  I'm so excited to share this special place with y'all!

Back in December, I brought you an interview with Paul Reinhart of the Cincinnati Zoo.  We did our interview IN the panda exhibit, talking about the whole amazing family there.  Well, that family has grown, unexpectedly, this month! I start this episode by bringing you that news story, and then bring back that interview for those that may have missed it! 

The info for that episode: Today, the Safari heads back to The Cincinnati Zoo to talk to Paul Reinhart while hanging out IN the red panda enclosure.  Lin, Kendji, Audra, Lenore, and baby Lucas all spend the episode listening in, climbing up, and generally having a wonderful time hanging out with us as Paul talks about his long career as a keeper at The Cincinnati Zoo, his love for camels, rhinos, and red pandas, and even a little bit about how mentorship made his career and how he is now paying people back by being a mentor.  Stay tuned after the main interview for a special bonus you'll be sure to love!

Season Two of the Safari starts off in Miami, Florida, with Communications Director and Goodwill Ambassador Ron Magill!  Ron is a legend in the conservation community and the zoo field, and his skill as a storyteller makes this episode both the best start to a new season, and one that will inspire you beyond belief!  If there is only one episode of the podcast that you check out, make it this one! 

Contentl Warning: There are a few minor swear words in this episode, and also a very much adult-oriented story, which I give a warning about before it begins.
