34. The Tamaraw
Listen now
Description
The Conservationists Assemble is back with volume 34! Tune into this episode where we roam into the unknown world of the dwarf buffalo, the Tamaraw, with our special guest, Fiona Sach. Fiona is the zoo conservation impact manager at the Zoological Society of London and the EEP coordinator for the remote style Tamaraw programme. In this episode, Fiona enlightens us on what we know about this fantastic animal, the threats they face and the different organisations and efforts in conserving the world's smallest buffalo. A particularly interesting topic of conversation focuses on how zoos are involved in Tamaraw conservation despite there being no Tamaraw outside of the Philippines.   Check out the links below to learn more about the work to save the Tamaraw!   ZSL Tamaraw: https://www.zsl.org/what-we-do/species/tamaraw ZSL Tamaraw blog: Finding the perfect site for Tamaraw Conservation | The Zoological Society of London (zsl.org) ZSL Tamaraw project page: https://www.zsl.org/what-we-do/projects/tamaraw-conservation Re:Wild: https://www.rewild.org/wild-about/tamaraw d'Aboville Foundation: https://www.dabovillefoundation.org/ Tamaraw conservation and management action plan: https://www.cpsg.org/sites/cbsg.org/files/documents/TamarawTCMAP_Oct21_FINAL.pdf
