In this quick episode of the podcast, I speak with Mike Leahy, the Director of Wildlife, Hunting & Fishing Policy at National Wildlife Federation, just in time for the U.S. Senate Environment and Public Works’ July 22 hearing on zoonotic diseases.
This critically important, not only given the fact that COVID-19 originated as a wildlife disease, but also given the wide range of other wildlife diseases that could make the leap to humans.
