S2E3: Killing for Conservation: How Do We Feel?
Monday Apr 29, 2024
Monday Apr 29, 2024
Throughout history, humans, especially those of the western world, have intentionally & unintentionally introduced species around the world where they may have never reached before & as a result, negative consequences have occurred. BUT, the big questions that we often avoid is, should we actually now be intervening again to try to remove the issues that have been created. Is lethal control of mammals, fish, reptiles, insects, birds & plants really the only option? And how do we feel about this?
On this episode we explore this very topic & aim to have an honest discussion about how we feel about killing for conservation, whether or not the science tells us one way or another.
Guest appearances from Hugh Warwick, Prof Sierian Sumner & Leif Bersweden
