The making of a wildlife vet!
Chatting with us from her home in Kenya our guest is Gabbie, she is an aspiring wildlife veterinarian who is already steeped in conservation and environmental work at the young age of 16!
Her huge heart leaps out at you as we talk about the state of iconic African wildlife. Gabbie shares with us the stories of growing up with wildlife as her norm. No fear here when a lion sticks its head in the window while on a game drive, nor a tremble upon the discovery of a cheeky baboon helping itself to all the snacks in her tent. But, this is not all fun and games, wildlife protection is a big deal that Kenyans are devoted to and succeeding as the guardians and stewards of their land and wildlife. Gabbie's is a voice of the future for her country and a very active youth in the conservation field. It is no wonder she aspires to be a wildlife veterinarian as that will put her on the front lines of the care that wildlife are increasingly in need of these days. Gabbie is well aware of the need to educate people about the wildlife in Africa in a way that does not romanticize the situation, but yet encourages people to love not fear and become warriors for their protection and preservation. Gabbie has a couple organizations that she suggest you support, so please visit these websites and show your support for our world's wildlife and environment and you can follow this young leader on her IG @little.miss.dolittle (get it?) visit: https://www.bornfreeusa.org/ https://www.olpejetaconservancy.org/
