The Animal Turn Podcast
Austria
Приєднався 3 лис 2020
Animals are increasingly at the forefront of research questions - Not as shadows to human stories, or as beings we want to understand biologically, or for purely our benefit - but as beings who have histories, stories, and geographies of their own. Each season is set around themes with each episode unpacking a particular animal turn concept and its significance therein. Join PhD Candidate Claudia Hirtenfelder in this podcast as she delves into some of the most important ideas emerging out of this recent turn in scholarship, thinking, and being.

S6E10: Grad Review with Virginia Thomas and Darren Chang
I learned some interesting facts about ants here. Thanks
Happy to hear it!!
Interesting discussion and I learned something from it today. Thanks
You are very welcome!
Good work Save the bats Videos of the behaviours mentioned in this talk can be searched for in UA-cam. "Baby bat massage" "bat belly dipping" "bat steals milk bottle" etc
Thanks for the tip Paul!
They are extinct.

Unlimited Human and severe ecological overshoot has created these new landscapes... Forcing this animal and many more into megacities
Runaway urbanisation is certainly part of why many wild animals that would normally shy away from humans and human settlements are increasingly found near them. Leopards' capacity to adapt in incredibly uncertain and volatile environments is a testament to their innovativeness and creativity. Urban policy is going to need to put in provisions to protect them, manage human-wildlife conflict, and cut back on habitat fragmentation
❤❤❤👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Claudia - it was such a pleasure talking to you! And having you as a guest @sentientism of course... ua-cam.com/video/wnTkXgDhbUw/v-deo.html
👏👏👏🐀🐀🐀
I’m into pigeons!
Did I just stumble into a mental health intervention?
Haha! I can see how you might think that! Nope, not a mental health intervention, just a tiny slither of a MUCH longer conversation about how animals are thought about politically.
Found you via Jamie's Sentientism pod. Yes, feral "invasive" cats and other species are a complex - human-caused - problem. I have a feral cat on "my" land. She is tame to me only - and just had 3 kittens, which are now weaned. The kittens do not trust me yet (they will in time). All 4 cats already catch small rodents and birds - which the foxes usually get (4 foxes there too). I'll get the cats spayed/neutered and release them again - and keep feeding them all, including the foxes. - BECAUSE right next to "my" land a big house was just built which took away habitat from the foxes, and the rodents, and the birds, etc. That's my small solution to the complex problem, but it's not really a great solution...😾🦊 🐭 🐦🏘 PS: Raccoons, skunks, an owl and more are also living off that small piece of land...
Welcome to The Animal Turn :). It sounds like you live in a beautiful place with many animals The idea of who is feral and not is just so interesting. While some domesticated animal certainly don't want to live wildly many others do. The discomfort this seems to raise is interesting and there are certainly no easy solutions.
@@theanimalturn I guess whether they, or anyone, wants to live wildly depends on the "wilderness" surrounding them. "Pets" living trapped in a dysfunctional human "wilderness" are not better off than feral ones who have found a niche in nature. All depends on the niche I guess. We all need a niche.😁
Great clip! Keep them coming. That dog in the background is just the cutest <3
Yay! Thank you for watching. It is always a good sign when host's partner is invested! ;) And yes, Linus is just too cute. Throughout the interview he was snoozing in the background, only to wake in the last five minutes.
I recommend reading ‘Darwin comes to town’, in which the author Menno Schilthuizen highlights a parallel between ants building nests or mounds and humans building cities. In both cases, new habitats emerged to which other species have adapted evolutionary. This parallel really made me look differently at the urban, and that its distinction from nature is not working.
Thanks so much for the recommendation! There is something fascinating about how often comparisons between ant and human civilizations are made.
Awesome!
Thanks so much! Happy you enjoyed it! This was our first recording so we had some sound challenges but any conversation with Will is a gem!
I love your podcast 💚
Thanks so much Amber!!! Anything you would like to see more of?
