48. The Scarce Yellow Sally

Episode 48

Sunday, June 15, 2025 • Duration 01:05:56

The Conservationists Assemble is back with volume 48!

Today's episode focuses on the Scarce Yellow Sally. There are fewer pleasures greater than being out in nature, and rivers are a great source of that. For me, rivers were a great source of enjoyment in the pandemic as I know they were for a lot of people. When restrictions started easing here in the UK, Panshanger park became a place we visited often. On days where the weather was pristine, we would sit at the river's edge and just enjoy the environment. I knew that there was wildlife around. The possibility of kingfishers and perhaps even otters. Okay so both (particularly the latter) were incredibly unlikely given the presence of people enjoying the outdoors. But being able to observe the character of butterflies, bees and dragonflies along the waters edge was a privilege. Today's episode is about a species that relies upon and is synonymous with healthy rivers, the Scarce Yellow Sally.

Joining me is Joe Chattell, as we put the spotlight on this mysterious stonefly.

I’ve made it no secret that aside from raising awareness of our planet’s threatened species through uniting with amazing conservationists around the world, that community is an integral part of my hopes and dreams for the conservationists assemble. Which is why, week in and week out I ask and offer for every one of you, the listeners, to share your photos, videos, stories and experiences of wildlife and your time in zoos as well as your thoughts on the podcast and to spread the word with family, friends and peers. The importance of community is a sentiment that has been reflected by a number of guests on the podcast such as Andrea Dempsey in volume 19 on the Diana Monkey and WAPCA, and more recently in volumes 32 and 33 with Matt Ford of the Talarak foundation on the Visayan Warty Pig, both of whom expressed the importance of working with and including those who live in country for the preservation of wildlife and a desire to have those exact people leading the conservation efforts for those species. Today’s episode is exactly an example of indigenous peoples being at the helm of conservation.
