The importance of Keystone Species and How Everything is Connected | Sera Steves

The following Wild Chat is with Sera Steves a Zoologist and advocate for all things Wildlife and an extremely dedicated advisor and spokesperson for our Spectacled Flying Foxes, found right here in North Queensland's Wet Tropics.Today Sera talks to us about the importance of keystone species, like bats and cassowaries, and how they play a crucial role in the environment. We go deep in understanding how everything is connected and what may happen if we lose a particular species.Sadly our Spectacled Flying Fox is endangered and today we chat more about these gorgeous flying mammals, what role they play in our rainforests and why they should be listed as critically endangered.I absolutely loved listening to Sera’s knowledge and her passion for our Aussie Wildlife.To connect with Sera you can find her here:  http://www.instagram.com/sera_loves_crocshttp://www.batsoc.org.auhttp://www.questagame.comDon’t forget to connect with me over on our socials:http://www.instagram.com/australian_wildlife_education or http://www.facebook.com/australianwildlifeeducationEmail - [email protected] or [email protected] the following Wild Chat!Support the showWe hope you enjoyed that Wild Chat!To continue delivering educational wildlife material we need your support!
