The Geographical Podcast, Editor’s Picks: Saving Ecuador’s last condors

29 May 2024
< 1 minute

This week: Saving condors, an Egyptian mystery, and reverse migration in China


In this weekly edition of The Geographical Podcast, we read out three articles from our print magazine or website.

This week, a trip to the Ecuadorian Andes where Mark Stratton visits a project aiming to save the country’s last wild condors. Plus, an ancient Egyptian mystery and writer Alec Ash’s decision to ditch the rat race in China and move to the beautiful rural town of Dali. 

Find the episode here, or wherever you usually listen to podcasts:
