#7: Don't Be a Birdnapper! (Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Help Wildlife)
Manage episode 419166201 series 3503450
Many well meaning people, seeking to help wildlife, mistakenly become a birdnapper. Or a turtlenapper. Or even a bunnynapper.
And it's all too easy to mistakenly harm an animal that you might think is distressed or in trouble.
Do you know what to do if you see a bird on the ground? Or a turtle in the road? Or newborn bunnies in your yard?
Spurred by a personal story from a follower, Griff and Michael discuss all of these scenarios and more, and wildlife coexistence in general. With a little knowledge of the animals, and a few resources at your disposal (looking at you Animal Help Now), you'll be prepared to be the hero that your neighborhood animals need!
Beyond a podcast, Jumpstart Nature is a movement fueled by volunteers, igniting a fresh approach to reconnecting people with the natural world. In the face of our pressing climate and biodiversity challenges, we're on a mission to help you discover newfound purpose and motivation.
