Ep. 27: How to Avoid African Elephant Conflicts (feat. Lynn Von Hagen)

In this episode we're joined by (soon to be Dr.) Lynn Von Hagen, Presidential Research Fellow at Auburn University studying African Elephant-Human conflicts in Kenya. She is also the Field Team Co-Leader for Elephants and Sustainable Agriculture in Kenya. You can join the project by visiting EarthWatch.org.

How can you defend yourself against an Elephant? What kinds of conflicts are they having with the people they live around? And how do the people who live around Elephants feel about them? And where are we at with poaching? Learn the answers to those questions and more in this week's ep!
