This week we speak to Jody Allair! Jody is the Director of Community Engagement at Birds Canada. Through fieldwork and educational initiatives, Jody has been dedicated to bird conservation for the past 20 years. Jody and Chris spoke about the important role of environmental education and how it has evolved over the last decades. Jody also gave his insights into how young people with a passion for wildlife can contribute to conservation and find a successful career path. Finally Jody shared his field story involving an unfortunate skunk and Great Horned Owl, and needless to say you can almost smell the skunk in his story while listening!
