Every now and then, headlines pop up about a monkey on the loose, tiktok videos of pet monkeys go viral, occasionally even celebrities will get their faces in the paper for their pet monkeys (looking at you Beiber!) But these blips of fame and notoriety of pet primates barely scratches the surface of just how many monkeys, apes, and other primates are being kept in people's basements, backyards, and bedrooms throughout the USA. With ~15,000 pet primates around the country, we have to ask ourselves: "Is it legal? Is it safe? It is ethical? Who decides?"
To help us unpack the ambiguous world of monkeys in America, we welcome Dr. Liz Tyson, Programs Director at Born Free USA who has an in-depth knowledge of the exotic pet trade - from both a legal and a practical standpoint. Join us for this episode of Talking Apes and find out more about how YOU can help keep primates out of pethood.

“Where education fuels compassion.”
This week we talk about Meerkats, which Amber picked. Why? Because she read an article about how Meerkats may be the most murderous mammal towards their own species known to science. Meerkat (Suricata suricatta) is a small mongoose found in southern Africa, that will straight up go to war with each other. But regardless of the headlines, Better Than Human still thinks humans are more murderous.
Good news everyone! Amber isn’t having Satan’s baby or an Alien baby. (But is that really good news?) Also, don’t shame periods.
Meerkats live in packs, with dominant 'breeders' producing most of the offspring, and the subordinate helpers caring for the pups. This division of labor, however, is not as uncompromising like you’d see in ants or bees. The meerkats have an interesting social structure, forming packs with up to 30 individuals. Members do different jobs, including keeping a lookout for predators. They really should be keeping a lookout on themselves cause about one in five meerkats are killed by members of their own species.
Listen now to learn more about the homicidal meerkats.

This week we sit down with Jo Hinde – an incredibly inspiring lady!
Jo tells us about her passion for rabbit care and how LagoLearn Ltd came to be such an important educational resource for anyone working within the veterinary industry. We also discuss her life outside of work, including the Goodwood Festival of Speed and times when she has badgered parliament (Pun intended 😉). She also shares her experiences with sepsis and how important it is to raise awareness of this life-threatening infection.
'Jo has worked in the veterinary industry since 2007 and has always had a special interest in rabbits. She owns and runs LagoLearn Ltd, providing rabbit specific CPD to veterinary professionals in both the UK and internationally. She also spends a significant amount of voluntary time working with charities and parliamentary groups to highlight animal welfare and is proud to be Senior Vice President of the BVNA (British Veterinary Nurse Association.) Jo attends many events, gives lectures and writes articles for the veterinary industry as well as the general public and schools. She has received several awards over the years including the Blue Cross Veterinary Nurse of the Year in 2014, an RCVS Innovation Award winner in 2017 and the IFAW Animal Advocate Award in 2017.'
Support the show ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★This week on Better Than Human, Jennifer and Amber explore the little-known lemur of Madagascar known as the Aye-Aye.
But first, the co-hosts bitch about something all women are probably familiar with, and what most women probably find incredibly irritating: mansplaining. Women, you know what we’re talking about. Men, listen and learn. We also ask if growing your own cells in a petri dish, and then eating said cells, is cannibalism, or is it vegetarian?
Back in the day, before Google (anyone else remember those days?), Amber did a project on Aye-Ayes, and recently was reminded of them from a Top Ten Ugliest Animals list. Are they one of the worlds ‘ugliest’ animals? Jennifer and Amber don’t think so, but will agree that they might have the weirdest looking hands of any animal.
The aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) is a long-fingered lemur in the primate family, with rodent-like teeth that continuously grow and fingers specialized for very-specific tasks related to eating.
Sadly, aye-ayes are commonly thought to be bad omens by some of the Malagasy people. The aye-aye is often viewed as a harbinger of evil and killed on sight. Others believe that if one points its narrowest finger at someone, they are marked for death.
The aye-aye was thought to be extinct in 1933, but was rediscovered in 1957. Recent research shows the aye-aye is more widespread than was previously thought, but its conservation status was changed to Endangered in 2014.
Listen to learn more about why we should save this remarkable species, as well as all the other Madagascar Lemurs. Do you like aye-ayes? I can't hear you! Aye-aye, Lemur!

This week I answer odd questions like; What do I resent paying for? Who do I go out of my way to be kind to? What am I interested in but most people aren’t? plus much much more. I also have a really interesting conundrum that I need your help to answer.
In 2016, researchers at the University of California - Berkeley created Salto (Saltatorial Locomotion on Terrain Obstacles). Salto is a tiny jumping robot that can leap off of the ground, hit a spot on the wall, and then jump off the wall. Cool, but limited.
Since then, the team has added a host of capabilities. Salto can now run or jump for more than 10 minutes, taking as many as 100 jumps in that period.
The remote-controlled robot can also jump four-feet high, run 8-10 mph and has the ability to clear various obstacles. It also has the ability to follow, land and launch from moving targets, like a tiny little parkour robot.
Because it's so quick, it can land and launch off of surfaces that normal robots would simply slide off of. It also has onboard sensors that help it stay upright and change position while in the air to make sure it lands correctly.
Next, the team wants to make Salto more agile, including the ability to jump on/from various surfaces, like gravel. Right now, it’s restricted to wood, brick, grass and concrete. The researchers also want to add arms, so it can grab onto objects after it jumps.
The design was inspired by galagoes, which are also known as bush babies.
The team recently presented its work at the 2019 International Conference on Robotics and Automation in Montreal.
Like other robots that were designed with a unique set of skills, Salto could one day be used for search and rescue missions, looking for survivors while navigating unpredictable terrain.
