An interview with Wetland Stewardship Specialist Kristyn Mayner from Ducks Unlimited Canada to give an overview of boreal wetlands in Canada (and the world!). We talk about how to identify peatlands, interesting plants and animals, and different ways that peatlands are threatened. As a bonus, you also get to hear me insult all amphibian researchers in the intro as I blunder on about why peatlands are important and why you should care about my PhD dammit! Talking is hard and all amphibian researchers can @ me on twitter. Also, maybe we should have a conversation so I value amphibians more?
Anyways, if you are interested in learning more about the work that Kristyn and colleagues do at Ducks Unlimited, check out the website here: https://boreal.ducks.ca/.
We also briefly mentioned the Good Fire podcast about indigenous ecological burning practices which you can listen to here: https://open.spotify.com/show/7yZg2Nb0cvY4EktzyeRz3i.
