Mark Rodrigue from Parks Victoria joins us to celebrate 20 years of Marine Parks in Victoria and talk about urchin culling as part of Bay pest management. And then... lung fish! Whaaaat... fish with lungs? Indeed! Dr Alice Clement from Flinders Uni explains how lungfish brains have changed throughout their evolutionary history – this can give us an idea of which senses were more important than others (such as vision vs olfaction) and what the brains of our land-based ancestors might have looked like. And last but never least: everyone's fave Baykeeper Neil Blake updates us about the St Kilda Penguins breeding in winter, and a brand new strategy to establish a Maribyrnong Riverkeeper. With presenters Kade and Fam.
