Episode 3: The Human Jaguar Conflict Program at the Belize Zoo
Have you ever wondered what happens when the territories of humans and jaguars collide? As you will see, it usually doesn't turn out well for the jaguar.
So in this episode, we are meeting with Jamal Andrewin-Bohn, Conservation Director at the Belize Zoo and Tropical Education Center, and zookeeper Jose Valdez to talk about the details of the Human Jaguar Conflict Program at the Zoo, a project that has given over 25 animals a second chance at survival over the years.
We will also be talking about a joint campaign between the Zoo and IE, called #Habitats4Jags that is working to establish a new facility at the Zoo to assist these zookeepers in the care of these amazing animals.
IE is an organization formed by teachers and scientists with a passion for developing inspirational stories about people and organizations involved in wildlife conservation and education.
