Wild for Change with Nicole Rojas On a new Wild For Change podcast, we speak with John Jurko II, creative director of Global Conservation Corps and lead producer and director of the film RHINO MAN. Global Conservation Corps is a non-profit organization that is bridging the gap between communities and wildlife. The film RHINO MAN was the first project of Global Conservation Corps and was created to support the rangers protecting the rhino and to share their stories. Rangers are the front line, the boots on the ground, protecting our diminishing population of rhino that deserve to be here but are being poached for their horn. These rangers put their lives on the line to protect the rhino. This is what makes a ranger so special and formidable. This is truly where passion meets purpose.

Nikita Dhawan hosts Effective Animal Advocacy with guest Professor Peter Singer, a renowned philosopher and author known for his work in animal ethics and animal rights. Peter discusses his initial involvement in the field of animal ethics, emphasising his ethical background and realisation of the ethical issues in animal treatment, particularly in factory farming. He highlights the importance of considering the well-being of all conscious beings, not just humans, in ethical decision-making.Peter explains the concept of animal liberation philosophy, which advocates giving equal consideration to the interests and suffering of animals, challenging the notion that intelligence should be the sole determinant of moral consideration. He draws parallels between speciesism and other forms of discrimination, such as racism and sexism, to highlight the moral inconsistency in favouring humans based solely on intelligence.The interview touches on the updated edition of Singer's book, "Animal Liberation," and its relevance to contemporary animal welfare issues. Singer discusses the progress made by the animal rights movement and the challenges it still faces, particularly concerning factory farming. He addresses counterarguments and the complexities of ethical positions, especially when it comes to rearing animals in humane conditions for food consumption.Peter provides insights into the harsh realities of modern-day factory farming, focusing on the overcrowded and inhumane conditions in which chickens are raised. He highlights the health and welfare problems caused by rapid growth due to selective breeding and the high mortality rates among young chickens. Singer underscores the need for reform in the treatment of animals in the agricultural industry.https://petersinger.info

Reality Checks with Staci-lee The Government of Sint Maarten has decided to kill ALL their wild monkeys as a form of population control. Horrified by this policy a letter was sent to the government in March 2023 from the world’s leading primate and animal welfare organizations. The letter had 75 signatories offering their support in an effort to halt the death sentence. Born Free USA is leading the effort to save the monkeys. The alternative proposed would be to sterilize the monkeys, at no cost to taxpayers and let the monkeys live out their lives while going extinction naturally as breeding would cease. As of today these groups are still awaiting a response and the fate of the monkeys hangs in the balance though the government seems to have started the killing already. Have a listen as Dr Missy Williams, who runs the Dania Beach Vervet Project in Florida, talks about the monkeys, false claims and how people can help. Please take a moment to contact the Nature Foundation on the island who has refused to give out information about the monkeys https://naturefoundationsxm.org/ Also contact the government and ask they stop the killing and choose the humane alternative Egbert J.
