It's unfortunate that we're all too familiar with news about poaching, and wildlife species losing their habitats due to deforestation and pollution. But are we becoming desensitized to information about threats to the wildlife? How much does the general public care about biodiversity? We talk about educating communities on wildlife conservation with Dr. Ahimsa Campos-Arceiz, Associate Professor on ecology and biodiversity conservation at the University of Nottingham, Malaysia Campus; as well as John Mathai, Chief Operating Officer of Rimba Research.
