Episode 64: Conserving Amazon’s River Dolphins with Suzanne Smith
Manage episode 427362063 series 3481409
The Amazon River Dolphin, known locally as the “Boto”, is the largest species of river dolphin in the world. The species is also the most widespread river dolphin, covering six different countries in South America. Unfortunately, the Amazon River Dolphin is classified as “Endangered” by the IUCN Red List. Commercial fishing remains the primary threat to the species. The species is also severely affected by extreme drought due to climate change and water pollution from industrial mining.
In this episode, I talk about the conservation of the Boto with Suzanne Smith, who is the founder of the Amazon River Dolphin Foundation.
