      19:03 - What is a saiga? The biology of an Ice Age relic

    • Louisa Ponnampalam: From dolphin dreams to conservation reality in Malaysia
      Dec 29 2025

      Most marine biologists dream of studying dolphins. Dr. Louisa Ponnampalam actually did it - and discovered that saving wildlife requires far more than science.

      Louisa shares her journey from teenage "dolphin obsession" to founding and running Marecet, Malaysia's leading marine mammal conservation organization. She opens up about the steep learning curve from field researcher to organizational leader, the surprising skills conservation work demands, and why protecting animals means understanding the humans around them.

      In this conversation:

      → The baby dugong encounter that took 11 years to happen

      → Why marine mammals are legally protected but their habitats aren't

      → Building trust with fishermen to reduce dolphin bycatch

      → The reality of conservation funding and facing "get a real job" criticism

      → Making marine conservation accessible to marginalized communities


      Key timestamps: [UPDATE WITH FINAL TIMES]

      0:00 - The baby dugong encounter

      8:00 - Why Louisa founded Marecet and filling knowledge gaps

      10:30 - The turning point: Conservation is more than science

      25:00 - Working with fishermen on bycatch solutions

      32:00 - Marine debris and habitat threats

      40:00 - Getting research into policy and protected areas

      44:00 - Learning to lead and communicate

      53:00 - "Just because it's never been done doesn't mean it can't be done"

      About Louisa: Dr. Louisa Ponnampalam is a Pew Fellow and co-founder of Marecet, living the childhood dream she never gave up on. She's spent nearly two decades researching dolphins, dugongs, and whales, and has helped establish multiple internationally recognized marine protected areas in Malaysia while training the next generation of homegrown marine conservationists.
