Working animals. There are currently 200 million horses, donkeys, mules, camels and elephants serving us as trucks, tractors and taxis all over the world. Some are "owned" and some are "rented" by people who derive an income from their animals. The h... more

Chimpanzees are our closest relatives. That doesn’t mean we’ve made their lives are easy. Far from it. According to our friends who monitor the species as part of the IUCN Red List, the Chimpanzee (or “pan troglodytes”) is an endangered species. Whil... more
When you read the evermore worrying news about species extinction, climate change and rising sea levels, do you ever wonder how much you can believe? In our busy and frenetic lives we often don’t know what to believe, or how serious some of this news... more

I was on a roadtrip with my little sister who would like to work in some field with animals some day. We couldn't find any that were basically for babies! Then I heard about Olga's podcast and am able to pass the feed onto my sister. She will be very excited. Especially for the Chimpanzee episode.
Olga has a passion and the expertise to teach us all a thing or two. And she bring other experts in to share their expertise. Amazing.
Such an important topic!
I love what Olga is creating here. Working in the conservation field I always love to discover new and interesting people and some of the guests she has had already are inspiring and very interesting. Keep up the good work!
cool and interesting ideas I’d never really considered before
This is a really interesting podcast about the way that Homo sapiens have displaced billions animals. We’ve got a lot of power, but much of that depends directly on the animals we exploit. I love the friendly and environmentally conscientious tone of this podcast.
Thank you for this great podcast on the animals, giving voice for those who can’t.
Olga’s podcast is intelligent, well researched, and needed today!
I love animals. But i know so little about them. Olga is making their world closer to mine. Make me understand where they come from and what they mean to people. There is so much care put into her episodes - it's just somethng you can't stop listening to. Highly recommended!
I have watched Olga throughout the process of creating this podcast. I have seen the idea germinate in her mind, the planning, the learning and the organisation required to ensure that interviewees were available to share their knowledge and experience.
I have enjoyed the creation of this podcast. I truly hope you enjoy hearing it, and all the episodes to come.
