    Wow, this sounds really interesting, I’ll have to listen to the whole thing!

    Love the story title too!

    Goodbye chemical weapons, hello burrowing owls

    Also, powerful quote from the project leader:

    “There are two important days in your life: the day that you’re born, and the day you find out why,” explained David Johnson, founder of the Global Owl Project. “I know why I was born — for the owls. So I’m going to work with owls until my very last breath.”
