Crocodile Conversations & Alligator Gossip | Savannah Boan | TEDxOrlando

By:  TEDx Talks

Originally published on January 3rd, 2019

Crocodiles and alligators aren’t exactly what comes to mind when one thinks ‘cute and cuddly’. Yet gators and crocs are important and vital creatures in our world’s ecosystem. How can we protect these amazing creatures through anthropomorphism and storytelling? What role can social media and eco-tourism play?

Savannah Boan from Gatorland makes the case in her fun and energetic TEDxOrlando 2018 talk.

Savannah Boan is Gatorland’s Crocodilian Enrichment Coordinator and International Ambassador For Conservation. She is dedicated to teaching people about the incredible behavior, anatomy, and ecology of some of the world’s most feared creatures. Through groundbreaking content for Gatorland’s worldwide social media, she is changing the villainous perception of alligators and crocodiles to create respect for the animals and the world in which they live. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
