The Pondcast

Anthony, Steve and Kevin sit down for a chat with one of the most accomplished and experienced turtle minds in the world, Cris Hagen. Cris is the Director of Animal Management for the Turtle Survival Alliance. He has been around the world studying turtles and has been an important voice at the table in every important discussion regarding turtles over the past several decades. Watch as theTurtleRoom and a man described in the good old days on turtleforum.com as "a turtle god" talks about as many turtle-centric adventures as can be crammed into one show.

The guys talk with their friend Ashley Rademacher-Morgan. Ashley is the Animal Care and Education Coordinator for Zoo Med Laboratories, located in California. How cool is that!? We've gotten to know Ashley over the years through her partnership with several different turtle organizations, including ours. We know you will love her as much as we do and we hope you enjoy this glimpse into Zoo Med, from a different perspective.

He is halfway there, and we are proud to have him on the show to help spread his message.
