For our September episode, we were joined by conservation biologist Kate Sheridan! Kate is originally from the UK, however, her work as taken her to all corners of the globe. She initially moved to South Africa to complete her Masters, which looked at recreationist perceptions of lethal and non-lethal management of sharks, and has recently left her job as a marine biologist in the Maldives. Kate has a large social media presence, and like she is with her own audience, she was very open with us on the struggles that she has faced with breaking into the industry, as well as imposter syndrome. Since leaving her in the Maldives, we hear all about her recent trip to South Africa and the de-horning conservation work that she was involved with, as well as some insight into her next moves. This is a long one- we could have kept chatting for hours!As mentioned in the episode, here is the link to her published research from her masters:https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0308597X2100244X?via%3DihubYou can keep up with her adventures on instagram @conservation_kate Any questions or queries contact [email protected] to our resources:Website: https://women-in-wildlife.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/women.in.wildlife/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100077369770841Linked in: https://www.linkedin.com/company/womeninwildlifeMusic by Thomas Hagen from SLAUX
