Aloha from the epicenter of the extinction crisis!

Episode 2 of our new podcast is now available and features an interview with Maxx Phillips, our Hawai‘i and Pacific Islands Director.

Few places on Earth tell the story of the wildlife extinction crisis like Hawai‘i. Dozens of birds, plants, insects, and mollusks have vanished this century, and every day is a fight to provide a foothold for those who are just barely hanging on. 

In the newest episode of our Sounds Wild podcast, host Vanessa Barchfield talks with Maxx Phillips, the Center’s Hawai‘i director, about what’s been lost and the incredible on-the-ground work being done to save what’s still living. 

Listen to the latest episode on our website (or find it on Apple or Spotify). 

Sounds Wild will focus on endangered wildlife, the extinction crisis, and saving life on Earth. Hosted by Mike Stark and Vanessa Barchfield, Sounds Wild features interviews with experts at the Center and beyond about some of the most important issues of our time.

Links to new episodes will be shared each week, so please stay tuned 🐺🐌🌲
