Shownotes
Riding elephants, swimming with sharks, and posing with tigers make for popular content on social media. Travelers and influencers post perfectly curated images with captive wild animals... for the likes. Often, wildlife tourist attractions pose problems in animal welfare that are only worsened by consumer demand.
Natasha Daly, journalist for National Geographic, joins us to discuss what these animals lives are really like, and how we can be responsible when participating in animal tourism.
