The Canid Project

In this mini-episode (part 2 of 2) Joey explains what the Biological Species Concept is, why it's important to consider, and how species designation affects the Endangered Species Act's protections.  Also, we hear a bit about the first findings from this past field season on the Gulf Coast, what we'd do with a billion dollars, and Joey's thoughts on the red wolf's villain.

In this mini-episode (part 1 of 2) Amy welcomes Dr. Van Remsen, an ornithologist, to the show to help explain some science terms that get thrown around a lot in these recent episodes discussing the Gulf Coast Canine Project and Red Wolf Project. We hope this helps all those non-biologists out there who listen to the show and... bear with us, Van is Amy's husband and they are sharing a mic! :)

Episode 1 is a bit of an introduction to your hosts, Amy Shutt and Dr. Joey Hinton...and of course, the Red Wolf.  Learn more about us, what brought us to the Red Wolf, this project, and the making of this podcast.  

Season 1: The Red Wolf podcast series is one vehicle through which we share the story of the Red Wolf and the current studies, conservation initiatives, and little known local history of the Red Wolf in Texas and Louisiana, its last strongholds. Join us for peripheral stories branching out from the history, research, and personal experiences of those who have been closest to the Red Wolf. Can new conservation strategies help save this species? HOSTS Amy Shutt, Director of The Canid Project and Dr. Joey Hinton, Senior Research Scientist of the Wolf Conservation Center.
