Abstract

This reflective paper and the accompanying podcast-- Creating Conservation , and the associated Facebook page , Creating Conservation Podcast, will examine my experience producing two podcast episodes focusing on wildlife conservation and wildlife conservationists. My decision to create a podcast in fulfillment of my capstone project for the Master in Environmental Studies (MAES) was to use the opportunity to educate and engage listeners about environmental and mental health topics that can affect everyday people with an interest in conservation, regardless of their age, experience, or education level.
