- Places & Travel
In episode six, join me - Charlotte Beauvoisin, author of Diary of a Muzungu - as I chat chimpanzees with Harvard University Professor - and close friend of Sunbird Hill - Dr. Richard Wrangham whose work combines primatology, evolutionary biology and anthropology. Listen in to hear:
What do sex, violence and cooking have in common? How do bees protect villagers’ gardens from hungry elephants? How long did Richard work in Gombe with Jane Goodall? Why shouldn't people have chimps as pets? What is the Kibale Chimpanzee Project? How does attending the Kasiizi Project’s secondary school protect the forest? Dr. Richard Wrangham has been visiting - and lived in - Uganda for 40 years. Which National Parks does he recommend tourists visit? And lastly, why did Richard suggest Julia Lloyd eat a hairy caterpillar? Welcome to my world!
Tune in every week to The East Africa Travel Podcast for the dawn chorus, travel advice, chats with award-winning conservationists, safari guides, birders, lodge owners, and wacky guidebook writers.
