This Weeks Questions:

Jbubble: What are some good, simple conservation or consumerism goals you guys think I should try out in 2025? #WWPEC25 #WorldsWildestPodEcoChallenge2025

Okok_Devin: My question is about the wildlife conservation/rehabilitation community and your career experiences (including and outside of Alveus). How would you describe the culture of working in conservation/rehabilitation? If there’s 1 thing you could change about the “industry” as a whole, what would it be?

Onmate: What is a fictional creature or species that you really wish existed in real life? For me, it would be Chao from the Sonic series (pictures attached if you don't know what they are).

Okok_Devin: I know Alveus doesn’t re-release animals to the wild but have you had experiences rehabilitating animals and re-releasing them? Can you tell us about what it’s like to be involved in these kinds of cases? How do you make decisions about when and how to release the animal? Is it emotional?

Jbubble: A carwash near me claims to be fully solar, uses green car wash supplies, and uses reclaimed and recycled water! Is there an organization that certifies this kind of thing, or a sticker or plaque I can look for to make sure they are actually green? What are your thoughts on carwashes in general?
