Gorillaology (GORILLAS) with Tara Stoinski

Fresh new episode! Gorillas. These chest-beating, salad-munching, communal living, thick-furred beauties have so many surprises for you. (Don't get this confused with the earlier Primatology episode because this is all new and zeros in on two species of critically endangered ape!) Gorillaologist (IT’S A WORD) Dr. Tara Stoinski has been a gorilla scientist for nearly 3 decades and dishes on everything from fieldwork in cloudy mountains to dick facts, forest farts, banana flim-flam, the intersection of animal conservation and community investment, night-time nesting, grief, what those big teeth are for, gorilla musk, the legacy of primatologist Dr. Dian Fossey and the Gorilla Fund, and why our closest relatives need and deserve our protection. Also some weird asides about jaw exercises and online dating, because I want to.
