Welcome back to Be Hope Wildlife! Most people don’t stop and think about the conservation status of bats, in fact they hardly bat an eye (haha…), but did you know that bats can play incredibly important roles in ecosystems? In fact, some of them help plants and fruit grow! Including the ones we need as humans. That is just one tiny element of the bat benefits and fascinating facts explored in this interview with bat rehabilitator and ecologist Jess Dangerfield. So dive in and hear all about bat behaviour, care and conservation!

If you have no idea what geoscience is (or if you can’t get enough of it) then this is the episode for you. In this episode Yasmin Cole, also known as GlacierGalYas, shares how she became interested in geoscience/Earth science, explains some lesser known implications of climate change, explores some past climatic changes and suggests things we can do to lessen our impact on the environment. Yas shares so much interesting information in this interview, I hope you learn something new (or many new things like I did!) Follow Yasmin Cole on Instagram and Twitter @GlacierGalYas.
