Kyle HarperGUEST
But what we choose to value matters.
Kyle HarperGUEST
And I think that's the that's the positive lesson from Wales and otherwise, is that we are It's a matter of whether or not we decide to value biodiversity, both for our own sake, for our own well-being.
Kyle HarperGUEST
We have every good selfish reason to want the Earth to be full of really rich, diverse food webs.
Kyle HarperGUEST
But then just even beyond selfish reasons to say we want to live in a world where the Earth's natural systems are allowed in abundance.
Matt WatersHOST
Oh, marvelous.
Matt WatersHOST
So, yeah, I'm just thinking too, you mentioned about Wales and where you are now as well.
Matt WatersHOST
You seem to, I don't know whether the Wales follow you or you follow the Wales.
Matt WatersHOST
Yeah, I know.
Matt WatersHOST
It's
Steven LevineHOST
Oh, boy.
Steven LevineHOST
Cetacean, C-E-T-A-C-E-A-N, slash whale animal in the world.
Steven LevineHOST
But despite their large size, whale sharks are filter feeders-
Jared SheldonHOST
Yes
Paul WatsonGUEST
And, you know, I don't think people came to rally for my release because of who I am.
Paul WatsonGUEST
Because it's what I stand for, which is a protection of Wales and that.
Paul WatsonGUEST
The thing I was most proud of is I got about 7,000 letters.
Paul WatsonGUEST
most of them from children around the world I got two incredible letters from Jane Goodall and so I was got a lot of encouragement was there and but all the whole time it was an opportunity to hammer boat not just Japan on their illegal whaling but Denmark for the killing of pilot whales and dolphins in the Danish Faroe Islands
MashaHOST
Ähm, und genau, als, auf dem zweiten Platz weltweit steht dann Japan und dann, ähm, gibt es noch Island.
MashaHOST
Das sind so die drei Länder, die das wirklich kommerziell machen, Walfang.
MashaHOST
Und genau, ich hab einfach ein bisschen recherchiert so allgemein zum Walfang, bisschen Background und ich fand zum Beispiel interessant, noch mal so zu unterscheiden: Okay, wofür wird Walfang eingesetzt? Es gibt eben das Kommerzielle, wo dann Walfleisch oder Anteile des Körpers halt verkauft werden und genutzt werden.
MashaHOST
Ähm, es gibt dann den indigenen Subs, äh, Subsistenz, Subsistenzwalfang, sprich also, ja, indigene Bevölkerungsgruppen, die das dann für den Eigenbedarf machen.
MashaHOST
Und früher, das wird jetzt halt nicht mehr gemacht, ähm, gab es auch den wissenschaftlichen Walfang und davon, das war mir auch neu.
MashaHOST
Also ich hab mich, ich weiß auch ehrlich gesagt nicht, was man da dann wissenschaftlich genutzt hat, ob es darum ging, Teile von dem Wal zu nutzen für dann wissenschaftliche Produkte oder den Wal an sich anzugucken und Autopsie, was auch immer, und dann was vom Wal zu lernen.
MashaHOST
Aber genau, das macht man auf alle Fälle heute nicht mehr.
MashaHOST
Das gab's aber mal eben als Grund, um Wale zu fangen.
GlenHOST
What actually happens in 10 years' time if we don't make this a really attractive place for a 30-year-old to live, raise a family, educate their children? and take on those health jobs that we really desperately need.
GlenHOST
If we don't make it attractive, then what happens to us as a retiring community? Who looks after us? Um, you know, how do we welcome the workforce, their families, shaping, you know, the growth as well? How do we keep what's special and improve what's missing? We will only get useful answers if younger people, older residents, employers, students, families across the room, all the part of the conversation, um, So how do we start having that conversation? When somebody else on the region hears Fraser Coast, what do they picture today? They picture Wales, they picture retirement, they picture caravanning.
GlenHOST
What should they picture in 2046? What opportunity would your son, your daughter, your grandchild need to see them stay here or come back here after they're educated? What must we protect and what are we willing to change? There's compromises.
GlenHOST
No matter what we do, we can't have this perfect bubble now and not change anything.
Dave FarinaHOST
First, we will go over the history of mammal classification, then provide some additional information on modern mammalian evolution before reviewing the monotremes.
Dave FarinaHOST
Previously, it was widely accepted that there were only eleven orders of mammals, Rodentia, Chiroptera, Cetacea, Carnivora, Primates, Artiodactyla, Perissodactyla, Lagomorpha, Insectivora, Marsupialia, and Monotremata.
Dave FarinaHOST
Though this system has gone through numerous iterations over the years, with the most recent rewrite being in twenty twenty-three, there are aspects of it that have remained firm, while others have changed substantially.
Dave FarinaHOST
For example, the monotremes are so different that they are still considered their own order, while the marsupials have been found to be so diverse that their single order, Marsupialia, has been raised to the level of infraclass and placed as a sister taxon to the placental mammals, whose total order count has increased dramatically.

Waits backstage while I sing to you.

She can dance a Cajun reel or jump like a Wales in four-wheel drive.
speaker_5SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
She's my summer loving, my spring, fall, and winter.

She can make happy any man alive.
Charlie KeilHOST
She's got two papers, the one on technology and the one on whales can save us from climate disaster.
Charlie KeilHOST
There's something like over 80 species of Cetacea, whales, dolphins, porpoises.
Charlie KeilHOST
Are dugongs part of that, manatees?
Johnny GHOST
That's a good question.
