Radiolab Investigates Our Magical Organs That was actually the first thing I noticed. I'm walking through the town. If they can't make babies, the population will crash and in some cases you can successfully eradicate a species. Sutherland was the engineer pilot and a sharp shooter 2004, 3 to 2000 and six. There have been no tortoises there for 100 years. Say a few from maybe those Penta tortoises swim with occurrence to that nearby island. Here we go. Thank you. Oh my God. One male tortoise, maybe 50 years old. You just put your hands around. Mon, 07 Apr 2008 15:48:02 +0000. It was breath taken. That's our working hypothesis which brings us to her idea. Am I losing my touch? Nearly 200 years later, the Galpagos are undergoing rapid changes that continue to pose and perhaps answer critical questions about the fragility and Two females that sort of looked like George but weren't quite the same species and we put them with George to see if we could get him to breed, he never did wasn't interested.

Hey, radio lab listeners, Here's a message from our partner, IBM. We ask deep questions and use investigative journalism to get the answers. You can go, I don't know the depths of the Impenetrable jungle, It's been affected by human activity. James says a lot of tortoises. But if the hybrids do have a fitness advantage and if they survive, we may be witnessing in hyperspeed the creation of an entirely new species. 2012-10-10 06:29:29.

She took a trip to this island called Isabella, hiked up the side of a volcano and looked at all the tortoise country and it was an Impenetrable forest, basically tortoise heaven. We don't think it was natural Gisella thinks it might have been the whalers. And then fishermen started making a killing fishing sea cucumber because there was this huge demand. Surely in four generations you could have 90% of the pinto genome restored. And then everyone gets shot except the judas go, they let it go find more friends and then everyone gets shot except the judas go and then they do it again, everyone gets shot except the judas goat. And the pinot tortoise went extinct. The adult fly seems to be harmless. You had plants re emerging, you had trees growing back and in a really short period of time. By this point, I'm getting super excited and I'm thinking about Darwin and I start reading Voyage of the Beagle, his book on this nook that I had bought for the trip. 23 Weeks 6 Days Well, now my last night there, I went to meet up with that guy Leonidas who was running for mayor.

Description Description I really do because it has the potential to be incredibly anti basis from W. N. Y. C. Studios and the bell. Radiolab Every population of tortoises on all the islands. The small tree finch goes something like that's a small tree finch. So they did it. Let's just take some tortoises from a nearby island and put them back on Penta. You know, we assume that it was carbon dioxide carbon dioxide from the breathing. So they're all kind of converting over into the tourism economy. They weren't sure they'd eventually name him George lonesome George. WebGalpagos - Podcast As our co-Hosts Lulu Miller and Latif Nasser are out this week, we are re-sharing the perfect episode to start the summer season! And wherever they went, they would lure those male goats out of their caves so that, you know, all in all over the course of this two year program, we had hundreds of judas goats out and using those goats, they were able to go from 94% goat free to 96 to 97 to 98. Penta is was a very special place. The each legs, two clutches were ultimately laid in his corral and the scientists are like George got our hopes up dramatically. So carl kept mulling this problem, what would it take to basically make you know, the perfect judas goat. Radiolab I would just I would have shot them first. I mean we're probably talking just a few goats, but by the 1990s those few goats, the population had exploded to about 100,000 goats. Really? The interview originally from a podcast called The Relentless Picnic, but presented by one of Lulus current podcast faves, The 11th is part of an episode of mini pep talks designed to help us all get through this cold, dark, second-pandemic-winter-in-a-row. And when you set foot first on pin to you immediately since your abundance all the insect life and birds problem is on pena things were spinning out of control vegetation was growing wild in the forest was getting overgrown with the wrong kind of plants and the whole ecosystem was just teetering out of balance And one of the reasons for this, according to Linda Coyote is that we had an island with no tortoises because tortoises are sort of like the lawnmowers. And then, um, I actually didn't get back there for maybe 15 years from when I was there the first time and when I returned That forest was 100% gone. It wouldn't notice that you were there.

And what we'd do is we'd find a location as close as we could. And so what they decided to do is leave the judas, goats on various islands where they can live out their sterilized days chomping on grass, sharing war stories until such time as it might be needed again, is the, is the war between the greens and the and the fishermen and such, is that still hot and difficult And are they still no killing tortoises and they're not the fishermen. So they poked around in the areas where we got the one and I found a shell of a female, how had this female toward has died? Yeah, exactly. Galpagos. She showed me her lab. And how far are we willing to go to return a place to what it was before we got there. We have at least five species that are known to be facing extinction and another six in serious decline. We're still trying to figure that out. In fact says that it's actually in the same family as the regular house fly, but it's actually a boat fly called the Lorna's down. But whatever the scene is that just doesn't have any people but is carrying that idea, those pictures in your head even like useful anymore. And I remember asking one guy, they're driving so slow, I can just walk up to them. And so the technique that we would use was you would fire up your helicopter, you fly around, you'd find some goats, capture goats, capture them live and then come back back to base camp, offload them and you put a radio collar on them and you throw them back on the island. Radiolab So for starters they put up all these traps. Is there any time scale we should worry about. Our newsletter comes out every Wednesday. I began my work in Galapagos in 1981. I thought you were gonna say people, it was kind of a collaboration. Today we begin on a plane which carried our newly married producer, tim howard to the Galapagos. Seriously? Wow, that is freaking amazing, describe them. She points right next to it. You know, on average 50% of your genome comes from your mom and 50% from your dad. Our fact checkers are diane kelly, Emily Krieger and Adam Sibyl Hi, I'm Erica in Yonkers leadership. We're not hunting but you know, looking for fourth day, I was there um I went to the island of floreana which Darwin visited and they're up in the highlands basically in the middle of this yard. Just out of sympathy for them. full access to Shopify his entire suite of features. And as he went island to island, he started noticing that there were all these creatures that were really similar to each other but also a little bit different. Just because so today a little step back in time to one of my favorite radio producers, tim Howard telling us the story of a truly singular spot on the face of our earth. They're like the size of jeez, I don't even know what their massive, they look like. Radiolab - Transcripts - Steno There's no place, no matter how remote we get, you can go to the North Pole, it's been affected by human activity. But then at a certain point I noticed this one guy by himself standing on the sidewalk wearing a white shirt and jeans, he's waving a flag, but his flag is a different color. 179 years later, the Galapagos are undergoing rapid changes that continue to pose -- and possibly answer -- critical questions about the fragility and resilience of life on Earth. People sent in dozens of tortoises but linda took one look at them and was like no, no no, no they weren't pinto's. It's like yes look at this. She thought, God why can't I tell these finches apart? Ariane wack pat, Walters and molly Webster With help from Bowen wong. He says that when he first got to the Galapagos in the eighties, he couldn't believe that the place was real.

They were a little bit different depending on which island the finches lived on with the beaks. But that's four generations of tortoises, not rats. I guess. Howard Before We close. Transcript This is the place where Darwin began to develop his theory of evolution and it's the place 100 70 year or maybe 280 years later where our producer tim howard landed wearing fishnets and a bad brains t shirt too fine to find a very different landscape than what Darwin saw. Do you hear me? As our co-Hosts Lulu Miller and Latif Nasser are out this week, we are re-sharing the perfect episode to start the summer season!

Yeah, that that was a very unexpected discovery, takes a couple steps to get there, but just to set it up back in 2000, she was on floreana island for the first time. The boys. Well it means that these two different finches had started having babies together. All right on top of the cave, drop out one of the two shooters that was in the helicopter and he'd physically go into the cave shoe, the goats out or shoot them on sight. Almost every day during that time fraser would fly over Isabela island, two guys with two shooters either side of the helicopter, what you do is so you come across and you're flying along and you might see one goat says you follow that goat as it ran away until it joined its friends.
