Our guest in this installment of The PrimateCast is Dr. Valeria Romano, who shares with us a series of interviews she conducted with conservation scientists during a meeting on the “Strategic Planning for the Conservation of Golden Lion Tamarins” run by the Save the Golden Lion Tamarin Association in 2018. 

Have a beer on the golden lion tamarin

In the podcast, Dr. Romano introduces us to golden lion tamarins and why they are in special need of our attention as endangered species. We weave between discussions in the studio and interviews done in Brazil with five conservation scientists, including Dr. Luis Paulo Ferraz, Dr. Carlos Ruiz-Miranda, Dr. Jenniffer Mickelberg, Dr. Marcos Freire, and Dr. James Dietz. Each brings a unique perspective and a unique controbution to the conservation of this endangered species. You can also hear about various ways in which you can support their conservation (e.g. beers for conservation!).
