Koalas face a multitude of threats in their natural habitat on the east coast of Australia. These include habitat loss, infection with Chlamydia, dog attacks and car accidents. Our guest, Dr Julien Grosmaire, works as an environmental consultant and oversees the assessment of those threats. And as a side effect, he gets to hang out with incredibly cute koala joeys.
In addition, Julien is the current student & mentoring lead for The Veterinary Kaleidoscope, a veterinary diversity and inclusion organisation in Australia, supporting the rights of LGBTQIA+ people in Australia’s veterinary field.
In this episode, we are getting a little political. Indigenous rights are closely interconnected with One Health. Australia just had a referendum on the Voice to Parliament that could have meant a major boost of indigenous rights. But the referendum failed. Our host Cat chats with Julien about the consequences of the referendum outcome and Julien’s outlook for the future.
