67. My Heart is in Luangwa (with Robi Watkinson, Host of Zoology Ramblings & The Biomes Project)
Today Jack is joined by Robi Watkinson to chat all about his experiences across South Africa and Zambia! This includes filming out of the side of plane with no doors on, getting slightly too close for comfort with some crocodiles, otter spotting, and the essential but tiresome task of removing invasive Eucalyptus!
The duo also discuss the importance of diversity and seeing yourself in the field of conservation, some of the amazing people who inspire Robi, and why his heart will always remain in the Luangwa Valley... spoiler alert, it has a lot to do with the Leopards.
Robi will be back next week to chat all about mental health, diversity, his experience at the University of Cape Town, and a very elusive Orchid!
