#13 Shark Poddy: SOS Galapagos Ocean Poddy

    • Science

SOS Galapagos! Right now, (August 2020), a 260 strong fleet of Chinese fishing vessels is sat at the border of the Galapagos Marine Reserve - a biodiversity paradise and shark hotspot - apparently hoovering up anything that happens to swim by. Following the story of Hope the whale shark, at first Mads thinks she’s exploring a shark conservation issue, but as she digs deeper, uncovers the truth about a much darker, more ominous reality. Tune in to the first episode of SharkPoddy as Mads gets curious about shark-finning, fish-laundering and what happens when ships “go dark”.Podcast guests: Max Bello, Mission Blue // Daniela Alarcon, Galapagos Science Centre // Fernando Ruben Montalvo Salas & Greg Aranea Olvera, SOS Galapagos
