We are rereleasing an older episode to highlight the true danger we see of our coral reefs around the world. With the continued news that coral reef bleaching is still being seen around the world, we wanted to highlight them again. Many people do not know that corals are actually living organisms. In this episode, we dug deep and did our research to bring you what we know about corals. Also, we highlight how they are being damaged, pushed to extinction and what many around the world are doing to fight to keep our reefs healthy and thriving. We also will be releasing a new interview with a foremost expert on corals and he will give us the latest on what he and his team are doing to help. Another thank you to all our Patreon supporters.

After all the species we have covered, the Anglerfish has to be one of the most surprising and radical. Picking this species to represent our "Spooky October" for Halloween, the Anglerfish has it all. It is a creature made of nightmares that absolutely defies logic in some senses. The deep sea Anglerfish, survives in one of the most inhospitable regions of any biome, and yet survives and even thrives. Listen to this episode! Trust us, your mind will be blown!

This week we welcome back Jon Miot, Director of the Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo. Who also happens to be married to Angie. Jon sits with us to discuss how zoos and conservation organizations are saving endangered species. Specifically, Jon talks about what Species Survival Plans are, what are stud books and how are these organizations breeding these animals. All critical to their survival as emergency populations to their wild counterparts. In some instances, these SSPs are the last effort to save a species that is extinct in the wild. These decisions are not as easy as it looks and takes incredible thought and coordination. An interesting discussion to say the least.

This week we welcome the founder of PETA, Ingrid Newkirk, to discuss her 30th Anniversary edition of her book, Free the Animals: The Amazing True Story of the Animal Liberation Front in North America. We were excited to not only talk to Ingrid about her book, we also chatted about all her work through the years and just how she has helped change global consciousness about the welfare of animals. We also ask Ingrid her views on conservation and how PETA can help the efforts on those around the world fighting to save endangered species. This truly was an amazing interview and chance to speak with such an incredible person and one who has impacted nearly all of us in some way. Without a doubt, Ingrid has undoubtedly made the world a better place for animals and their welfare should be a concern for all of us.
