Island Hopping for Turtles with Cris Hagen

CheloniaCast returns after a spring semester hiatus. Jack, Michael, Ken, and Jason sit down with Cris Hagen, Director of Animal Management at the Turtle Survival Alliance’s Turtle Conservation Center and accomplished explorer, to discuss his many adventures in pursuit of Testudines. Cris has traveled extensively throughout the world to conduct research on turtles and tortoises. The conversation ranges from Cris’ experience working with Hawksbill Sea Turtles in the Hawaiian Islands to getting caught under gunfire while traveling in Asia in pursuit of Side-Necked Turtles.
