Show Notes

The African elephant, the world’s largest land mammal, is threatened by poaching, human development, and climate change.

Ensuring elephants and other animals thrive is important for the *human* species. In this episode, Gomera talks about improving the relationship between elephants and humans, and how our meat consumption is negatively impacting wildlife habitat. Gomera is an Aspen New Voices Fellow and spoke at Spotlight Health.
