Episode notes

Kristy Bly works for World Wildlife Fund's Northern Great Plains Program as their Black-footed Ferret Restoration Manager. She’s involved in conserving and restoring populations and habitat for ferrets, black-tailed prairie dogs and swift foxes across the Great Plains.

We talked all about the conservation story of the Black-footed Ferret, the only ferret native to North America, once thought to be extinct. This story includes clones, drones, plague, peanut butter, and a dog named Shep. I really enjoyed picking Kristy's brain and learning all about these enigmatic animals!
