Ocean Wolves, the Orcas Part I
Monday, August 26, 2024 • Duration 01:00:47
This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/CREATURES and get on your way to being your best self.
Back to the vault to one of the most incredible species we have covered in this podcast the orca! First release in 2019, it is worth a revisit. We will release Part II next Monday.
By far this is one of the most incredible species we have covered to date. The Orca (Orcinus orca) is a favorite of many throughout the world, but just how amazing they are will astound you. This will be a 2-part podcast because these animals deserve it. There are so many amazing facts and incredible research, that even two podcasts do not do them justice.
In Part I we cover the basics of Orca physiology, but even more incredibly, all the different ecotypes. Behavioral research is showing these animals have developed specific culture to their specific ecotype. In Part II we discuss this in more depth, but enjoy an introduction to a special animal, the Orca.

Episode 312: Red Panda Reset
Monday, January 2, 2023 • Duration 01:21:52
We are releasing Red Pandas again to highlight just how endangered these animals are. We also have an incredible interview to follow this with Sonam Lama, who is a true conservation hero out there fighting to save these charismatic animals. Sadly, Red Panda poaching only increased during the Covid-19 pandemic. Thus, we want to remind everyone of the Red Panda's plight, but also as important, is that there are many out there like Sonam who are fighting to protect these animals!

Episode 310: Swans Love for Life
Wednesday, December 14, 2022 • Duration 01:13:04
Swans are such an iconic bird. They inhabit many waterways around the world and are beloved by many. This week we talk about swans, and especially focus on the Trumpeter Swan. Hunted to near extinction in the 1800s, these swans were reduced to less than 70 birds in the lower 48 of the United States. Fortunately, small remnant populations survived in Alaska and parts of Canada to allow their survival. Through focused conservation these birds have rebounded with around 63,000 birds. These elegant and massive birds are so fun to learn about and we know you will fall in love with them if you are not already. Also, this week is also a special episode for us. Chris is getting married to his sweetheart Pippa and is dedicating this episode to her.

Episode 309: Llama , Nah, It's a Guanaco
Wednesday, December 7, 2022 • Duration 01:21:21
Native to South America, the Guanaco is a close relative to the domestic Llama. One of the questions we answer this week is, are Llamas just domesticated Guanacos? Tune in to fine out. These wild camelids live at the extremes in some of the most remote regions of our planet. They can be found high in the Andes Mountains of Chile and Argentina, and all the way down to the subtropical forests of Peru. These hardy mammals are one of the most unique herbivores on Earth. They are such a fun species to learn more about. Thankfully, they are classified as Least Concern, but their populations are down to about 10% of their known historical highs. They are inching towards endangered status and need our help and understanding.

Episode 308: Spix's Macaw Coming Back
Wednesday, November 30, 2022 • Duration 01:18:27
One of the world's most endangered birds the Spix's Macaw, or also known as the Little Blue Macaw, is starting to make a comeback. The plight of the Spix's Macaw was highlighted in the popular children's film, Rio. These birds once extinct in the wild, have just been released back into the wild. In this week's podcast we highlight the plight of the Spix's Macaw, what caused their decline, and who is responsible for bringing them back. Native to Brazil, the Spix's Macaw was extinct in the wild for over two decades. Yet, private collectors around the world were able to keep the species alive. Coming together, these collectors and other organizations have collaborated to save them. A very heartwarming story!

Episode 307: Surprisingly Venomous Slow Loris
Wednesday, November 23, 2022 • Duration 01:11:07
One of our distant cousins, the Slow Loris, is actually one of the extremely rare venomous mammals on the planet. Sadly, each of the species of Slow Loris are heading towards extinction. We have so much more to learn about these ancient animals. Native to Asia, many Slow Loris are captured for the illegal pet trade. They are actually quite slow, which we highlight this week, and are quite easy to catch. Thus, due to their "cuteness" they are sold all over the world. Their story saddened us so much that it gives us, and we hope you, the drive to do more to save them and all the species in peril. Join us this week as we explore one of the world's most unique animals.

Episode 306: Behemoths of the Sea, Blue Whales
Wednesday, November 16, 2022 • Duration 01:21:18
An oldie but goody! It is amazing how much we have grown with your help these past few years. We are bringing Blue Whales back to your attention as we continue to highlight the oceans this week. From our tiny corals, to the largest animal to ever live, the Blue Whale, our oceans need your help. We first released this episode in 2018 and we felt we were just hitting our stride in the podcast. You can see just how much we have changed over the years, but our enthusiasm for this work has only grown. THANK YOU for your support and for caring about all these animals.
The Blue Whale was one of our favorites because it surprised us as a species! They are truly amazing creatures.
Also, we followed up this episode with an interview with Dr. Kim Goetz, which is always worth a listen. You can access that interview HERE
