I was recently contacted by Dr. Marcus Lashley and Dr. Will Gulsby, two professors of wildlife management who started the podcast Wild Turkey Science. I jumped at the chance to join them and talk about my dissertation work. We recorded last week and the episode was released this week.
I did have some minor nerves going into this… it’s one thing to give a public lecture but another to remember details from 20 years ago in front of two faculty members. It’s not too far from a real life nightmare of waking up and forgetting that your dissertation defense is going that day! Everything was fine though and it was fun to hear their enthusiasm for my work. I’m still surprised that here isn’t really been any follow up to my project in other populations but maybe this podcast will help spur someone to do just that.
