Interview with Prof Roger John Wheater, Former CEO of the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland

In this interview, Professor Roger John Wheater, former WAZA President and Heini Hediger Award recipient, reflects on a career that helped redefine the role of zoos and aquariums in global conservation. From his early field experience in Africa to his leadership at the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, Professor Wheater shares insights into institutional reform, international collaboration, conservation strategy, and the importance of education and collective action in protecting biodiversity. At the conclusion of his reflections, Professor Roger John Wheater wished to add the following message: "All these activities over many years would not have been brought to success or continued development but for the enormous support of so many zoo and aquarium colleagues, from all zoo activities and every level of seniority. Sadly space just does not allow me to mention the names of these wonderful colleagues." 🔗 Useful Links 📘 Book Mentioned (at 23:51): "The Albert N'Yanza, Great Basin of the Nile" https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/b... 🌐 Learn more about the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland and Edinburgh Zoo: https://www.rzss.org.uk/ https://www.edinburghzoo.org.uk/
