Episode #25 with Jake Meney from Crete Habitats and Design is now up. Was an awesome chat with Jake - he spoke about life as a zookeeper, the incredible backgrounds he makes for both zoos and private keepers, h**ping both here and abroad, his photography, juggling working as a zookeeper and owning his own business and much, much more.

Every cup keeps us energised, motivated, and far less likely to nod off mid-podcast edit. When you buy us a coffee, you’re not just fuelling two humans you’re fuelling more field research, more ecology deep dives, more stories from the bush straight to you, camera batteries and equipment, late-night writing and editing sessions, updating our podcast gear and much more. We promise to put every “coffee” to good use — likely somewhere muddy, sun drenched, or knee-deep in fascinating creatures. Know that every coffee helps with all the slightly chaotic creativity that somehow turns into the content you enjoy.
Thanks for listening!
