Love science and conservation? Want to discover new ways to protect our species? Elle Kaye chats with guests who work within the science genre, but whose job titles may need a little unpacking. Strap in for entomology, taxidermy, diaphonization, pet remains, human pathology and all those that work with specimens. In episode 037 Elle chats with self-proclaimed 'nature boy' and half of Flock Together, Nadeem Perera. Nadeem shares when he started paying attention to nature, and how it developed to become the foundation of what he does today. We discuss the ethos of Flock Together, and who this community he has helped built represents.
