In this episode, I was delighted to talk with Todd Montgomery, head of operations and outreach coordinator at The Elephant Sanctuary located in Hohenwald, Tennessee. Taking a stance on what is right vs wrong is defining and The Elephant Sanctuary has portrayed what it means to do good on this earth since 1995. Elephants are held captive for terrible reasons and this is where The Sanctuary comes into play, providing amazing animals with a home to flourish in. A total of 27 elephants call The Elephant Sanctuary their home with more than 2700 acres to explore. Make sure you check out their website, www.Elephants.com, and on Instagram @Theelephantsanctuary to learn more about one of the greatest places on this planet! If you want to learn about how smart elephants truly are while also restoring your faith in humanity I'd recommend giving this episode a listen! 

Let's zoom in on the ground where an entirely different group of animals reside. In this episode, I chatted with a biologist who studies snakes, lizards, birds, bats, and many more. We discuss what this man did while studying crazy animals in Belize and how he helps to educate students everywhere possible. He explains the unknown creatures of the night and those that can hardly be seen during the day. Dillon Jones is the MAN and you do not want to miss out on this sweet episode!

In this episode I met up with a freediver from Australia who swims with some insane sea creatures. We discuss the "symbiotic relationships" between marine animals, the curiosity of dolphins, and many other walks of life that live below the earth's surface. Jules not only gets killer footage of underwater creatures, but also keeps it clean and rids the ocean of trash when she can. If you want to learn some WILD facts about marine life and to finally start recycling you better listen to this awesome episode!
