The Conservationists Assemble is back with volume 43!
Welcome fellow wildlife avengers to the Conservationists Assemble. My name is Jonny Bloxham but here I am known as my alter ego, Captain Conservation, your friendly neighbourhood animal advocate. I am a former zookeeper with a passion for conservation education and the global efforts for threatened species and habitats around the world. I am inviting you to join me as we take the fight to our planet’s biggest villain and my arch-nemesis, extinction! Whether you’re new to animal advocacy or a veteran in wildlife preservation, this is the podcast for you!
Each week, I will be teaming up with Earth’s mightiest wildlife heroes to unify the greatest collaboration of conservationists ever known where we will be discussing our planet’s epic species and what is being done to save them. This is the conservationists assemble podcast.
Hello everyone and thank you for tuning in to another episode of the conservationists assemble podcast. How have you all been? I hope you’ve all had a wonderful week. I want to hear all about what experiences with nature or thoughts you’ve had about wildlife this week. I want to include you all in this podcast so if you’ve visited a zoo or aquarium this week, snapped a photo or video that you wish to share or have a story about animals that you want to tell. Send them to conservationistsassemble@outlook.com
I'm mixing it up this week! Today's episode is all about raising awareness of ocean health and inspiring a community of all ages to research and consider implementing changes to help make a healthy planet.
Joining me today are Oliver, Zilin & Saketh, part of their first lego league robotics team who undertook a project to raise awareness on this topic as part of this seasons 'submerged' theme. I hope you enjoy the episode as they guide us through their research and experience on this project.
Will you join the fight?

Don’t forget that there are plenty of ways to interact with the podcast by sharing your favourite photos and videos of your favourite species. You can also send in your favourite memories from a time at your favourite zoo or experiencing nature first hand. And you can have your say by expressing species, topics, organisations or specific guests you would wish to have on the podcast. Perhaps you want to appear on an episode yourself if you have a topic you are particularly passionate about. You can do all of these things by emailing or by messaging on facebook and instagram. Until next time, this is Captain Conservation signing off, over and out.
