Ep. 20 Monkey magic in Diani, Kenya with Pam Cunneyworth

Saison 1 · Épisode 20

mardi 3 septembre 2024 • Durée 53:50

We're back in the bird hide talking about monkeys with Dr Pam Cunneyworth, Director of Colobus Conservation in Diani on the Kenyan coast. It was at the young age of 7 that a teacher planted the lifelong love of Africa in her. At university, a lecture by Birutė Galdikas, a *trimate (one of Dr. Louis Leakey's famous primatologists) inspired Pam to take "the road less travelled," a journey that led her to leave Canada for a life in East Africa.

In our conversation, Pam offers us a glimpse into a fascinating world of primates:

The impact of "Colobridges," aerial structures that help monkeys cross roads safely.
Why you shouldn't ignore the 'eyebrow flash' of a baboon (hint: it's an important signal!)
How studying a small population of monkeys on the Kenyan coast ties in with global projects to protect ecosystems.
Practical steps hotels can take to minimise monkey and baboon encounters.
Lastly, we list some of the many tourist attractions in Diani on Kenya's stunning Indian Ocean coast.

Join me Charlotte Beauvoisin, author of Diary of a Muzungu | East Africa Travel Blog, in the birdhide at Sunbird Hill for a conversation about monkeys, tourism, future plans for the podcast - and some thank yous!

*Known as "the "trimates," Louis Leakey was the first to commission the three female primatologists: Dame Jane Goodall (who specialises in chimpanzees) and Dian Fossey (mountain gorillas) and Birutė Galdikas (orangutans). Together, their research has rewritten our understanding of great apes.

Ep. 19 Olympics scorecard - East Africa, home of champions

Saison 1 · Épisode 19

mardi 27 août 2024 • Durée 13:17

Whether you're a fan of the Olympics, a runner - or just someone like me who loves Africa - episode 19 is for you.

First off, a massive congratulations to everyone who participated in Paris 2024 - what an event it's been!

Today, we celebrate the remarkable achievements of East African athletes and give a special shout-out to the 12 African countries that brought home medals, with Kenya leading the way in athletics, and Uganda making its mark with two well-deserved medals.

What are the unique factors that make Kenya, Ethiopia and Uganda "the home of champions"?
Behind the medals: I discuss the challenges faced by East African athletes. The lack of financial support makes their achievements even more inspiring.
I've run all over Africa. And if - like me - the Olympics have inspired you, listen closely: I have some fantastic marathon and high altitude running ideas in East Africa that you won't want to miss.

Join me, Charlotte Beauvoisin, author of Diary of a Muzungu, as I lace up my running shoes for a short loop around East Africa.

In this week's episode, we have 150 square kilometres of unspoilt wilderness to ourselves as we venture on safari in Kyambura Game Reserve, Queen Elizabeth Conservation Area, western Uganda.

The night is alive with the sounds of the wild, from the hippos munching next to my tent to the near-encounter with a leopard! On our walking safari, we witness the unexpected drama of a warthog showdown. Later, Wildplaces owner Jonathan Wright tells me all about his new camps and lodges. Listen in to hear:

What does it sound like to sleep under canvas at Honey Bear Camp?
What are the chances of encountering a crocodile on our walking safari?
Who were the classic filmstars and writers who inspired the names of Wildplaces' new camps in Uganda?
And lastly, why did I let Philip Briggs talk me into climbing into a warthog hole?
Pour yourself a sundowner and join me as we explore some of Uganda's more remote safari destinations and take a walking safari on Kasenyi Plains.
We stay at Honey Bear Camp on the southern bank of the Kazinga Channel and visit the site of the new River Station, both in Kyambura Game Reserve, Queen Elizabeth Conservation Area, Uganda.
