Exploring the Maze of Nature in Los Angeles.The Labyrinth Project explores the diverse and surprising ways in which Los Angeles is full of different natures--- a veritable trophic cascade of the absurd and surprising. Wetlands, lawns, rats, cats, coyotes, mountain lions interact with human affect, state power, indigenous politics, aesthetic pleasure, local governmental power and much more. It is a collaborative research project at UCLA, based in the Institute for Society and Genetics, and in collaboration with the Laboratory for Environmental Narrative Strategies, and using a mix of participant-observation, structured interviewing, collaborative urban anthropology, historical and archival digging, ecological observation, and analysis of social media content. Does this maze have a monster? Did you bring thread? Read more at https://labyrinth.garden/

    The LA River, a fish story

    Can you fish the LA river?  UCLA undergrads Sami Ryan, Nico Le and Jae Hun Hwang find out in this episode about LA's storied river. They learn about native and invasive fish and plants, the plight of the steelhead salmon, the good and bad parts of the river, and  they ask: what is the ideal LA River like?  It's a question much easier to ask than to answer.  But they do catch some fish. The Labyrinth Project is a research project at UCLA, housed in the Institute for Society and Genetics, and partially funded by the National Science Foundation. https://labyrinth.garden/ for more details

  3. Hopelessly devoted: a cat detective story

    에피소드3

    Hopelessly devoted: a cat detective story

    Feral cats are everywhere in Los Angeles — in a bush on a hill along the freeway, darting through shelves of an autoglass repair shop, and crouched under storage units.  In this episode, Hana Almony and Cassidy Castro follow the threads of the TNR world and discover the quiet network that holds it all together. It's a community built on early mornings, late nights, and an extraordinary kind of care. And once you're in, it's hard to walk away.
