Synopsis

In this episode we talk to a couple zookeepers from the Greenville Zoo in South Carolina. Jennifer and Greg Garcia, a married couple, both have a passion for wildlife and conservation and have been dedicated to the cause for over a decade. Among the multitude of conservation projects they are involved in, we focus on the efforts to conserve Amur leopards both in the wild and in zoos, as well as the larger scale efforts the Association of Zoos and Aquariums or AZA is undertaking.
