Q&A Panel - Grounding knowledge for young conservationists
In lieu of our annual BBQ and presentation, we have taken to our podcast to bring you this special Q&A panel. This recording brings together professionals from the industry to communicate some well-grounded knowledge to the budding conservationist or environmental scientist.
Is it important to study the right taxon, or just study something? What are the strengths of government and non-government conservation? What is it that is truly rewarding in conservation careers? Find the answers and much more in this episode. Featuring Vicki-Jo Russell AM, Dr Dan Rogers, Jody Gates, and Dr Wendy Telfer. Hosted by Adam Toomes, edited by Kiri Marker, and produced by the BSSA committee. |

Noarlunga Dunes Tour
A special episode from our talented original podcast host
In this special episode of the BSSA Podcast, host Bradley Bianco takes listeners on a short audio guided tour of the South Port Noarlunga Dunes system. The tour starts at the northern trailhead of a track that winds its way through these rare relics of sand hills that would have once spanned the Adelaide Coast.
On the tour we have a look at many of the dune's native plants, listen out for some native animals, appreciate the views from the top of the tallest dune and learn about edible plants found growing in the sand. The tour starts here: https://goo.gl/maps/eVs52c2nU6S7hUXw5 Enjoy! |
