Episode notes

This week is the time of the show when we get to questions from those in the Patreon club, which you can join for as little as 25 cents an episode. This week's portion of some ad proceeds will go to the Hawaii marine animal response, which is h dash m a r dot org. We did talk about this a little bit, Annie, Todd McLaren, Sherry, Bridget, everyone did want to know what you thought of the sea turtle representation in finding Nemo. Now back to your listener questions.

If you think you like sea turtles, get ready to become wildly obsessed with them. Cheloniologist Dr. Camryn Allen met up with Alie on a tropical island (ok, in a hotel room on a tropical island) to chat about flipper slappings, turtle rodeos, nesting BBs, current surfing, endangered statuses, field work, sleeping under water, world records, boopable noses, male:female ratios, mind-boggling navigation, what you can do to help them, and the many mysteries that still remain. Take a deep dive into the world of seartles. Or is it surtles?
