Rossifari Podcast - Zoos, Aquariums, and Animal Conservation

The Rossifari Podcast brings my love of zoos, aquariums, rescues, and rehab facilities to you! Each episode features an interview with someone who works at one of these facilities. We talk about different species, individual animals, conservation efforts, nutrition...all kinds of stuff. This is a podcast suitable for all ages, but we will discuss topics like mating behaviors and euthanasia. If you"re a fan of zoos, or have ever wondered what exactly a zookeeper does, how aquariums manage to keep all
