Just Three Drs. (Two Doctors and a Drummer) Talking with Dr. Jenn Torpie and Dr. Shafkat Khan of the Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium and SAFE Red Panda

Today, the Safari heads to Pittsburgh to sit down with two of my favorite colleagues of all time: Jenn and Shafkat! These are two fellow members of the Executive Committee of SAFE Red Panda, and we have spent the last few years working together to build the program into something we are all super proud of. We dive into that, talk about the conservation and education work they do at the zoo, and of course sneak in a chat about a binturong!  EPISODE LINKS:  @saferedpanda  @pittsburghzoo  pittsburghzoo.org  ROSSIFARI LINKS:  Rossifari.com  Patreon.com/rossifari to support the pod  @rossifari on socials  @rossifaripod on TikTok  Join the new Rossifari Discord:  https://discord.gg/rQSwMuetj [https://discord.gg/rQSwMuetj]
