TBL Podcast Season 11 Episode 1 - The Science Behind Bird Conservation – A Conversation with Dr. Stuart Butchart
In this episode, I have the privilege of chatting with Dr. Stuart Butchart, the Chief Scientist at BirdLife International. But before we dive into that conversation, we’ll hear from Mark Anderson, the CEO of BirdLife South Africa, who will share his reflections on the success of the cruise and the vital work being done to protect Marion Island.Marion Island is home to some of the world's most iconic seabirds, including the magnificent Wandering Albatross. However, invasive mice have had a devastating impact on these birds, threatening their survival. BirdLife South Africa is leading the charge to address this crisis through the Mouse-Free Marion Project. For just R1000, you can sponsor a hectare and directly support the efforts to eradicate these mice, ensuring a safer future for the island's precious birdlife.
