Episode description
We sit down with Tim Shields, one of the OG's of desert tortoise field work, to learn about the outside-of-the-box tactics that Hardshell Labs is using to discourage ravens from predating upon endangered desert tortoises. Who knew that green lasers, 3D printed tortoise shells, and artificial grape flavoring could be such effective tools for conserving this incredible species?
