A Conservation Conversation, Part Two: Environmental work at the San Francisco Zoo and what the future holds

Published: April 28, 2024, 3:30 p.m.

Last week, KCBS Radio looked at the state of the environment. We touched on how cities are responding to the rising tides and the extreme effects of climate change. We looked at the change in how we get around the Bay Area - EVs, bikes, and more - and how young people are stepping up to take on climate justice.

And we found out that one of the Bay Area\u2019s most beloved places - the San Francisco Zoo - is focused on all the environmental changes that the world is undergoing as well.

We heard the first part of the Conservation Conversation on the last week's In Depth. Now we have the conclusion of that conversation, with KCBS\u2019s Eric Thomas and Nikki Meduro speaking with Eric Kruzmen, vice president of wellness and conservation at the San Francisco Zoo. They are also joined by Shelby Hasbun, manager of environmental services at the zoo.
