Up Close and Personal with US Fish and Wildlife Service - a podcast by Eli Weiss

Today we’ll be discussing how our USFish & Wildlife Service is involved in saving African and Asian Elephants, with special guests Deputy Chief of Law Enforcement Edward Grace ; The Chief of Near East. South Asia and Africa Division of International Conservation, Richard Ruggiero; and African Elephant Program Specialist Michelle Gadd. We will have an informative and frank conversation and dialogue about the November 14th, USFW Ivory Crush, the decimation to our wild world’s wildlife with focus on elephants, and how our USFW law enforcement works with the US and abroad to stop wildlife crime and international trafficking, particularly of our mega-fauna- elephants, rhino, tigers along with the less well known facts about just how insidious wildlife crime and trafficking has become globally.
