We are very fortunate to talk to Andre Borell and Lawrence Chlebeck from the documentary film Envoy:Cull. Andre is the producer and director. Lawrence is a marine biologist, works with Humane Society International and is featured in the film. Both discuss with us the current policies implemented in Australia to control and cull shark populations. Primarily this is happening off New South Wales and Queensland, Australia's east coast. Andre and Lawrence discuss the current issues with these policies and how the film exposes the truth to these practices. The film does not yet have a release date as of May 2020, but the trailer can be seen HERE Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
