Episode Synopsis

On this episode of Eco Echo, host Nil Kıran speaks with Aybars Aktaş about the urgent science of conservation biology. From restoring habitats and reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone, to the cutting-edge work of research centers like the Smithsonian, IUCN, and Kenya Wildlife Service, we explore how conservation biology is shaping strategies to protect endangered species and the ecosystems they depend on. More than just saving animals, this field is about preserving the life-support systems humans need—clean water, fertile soil, and a stable climate. Tune in to discover why protecting biodiversity is essential for the survival of all life on Earth.
