Fresh from the field, the California Academy of Sciences' curator of herpetology, Bob Drewes, and co-manager of the Naturalist Center, Roberta Ayres, talk about their recent expedition to São Tomé.One of two islands forming a single nation off the western equatorial coast of Africa and more than 17 million years old, São Tomé may be the last undisturbed paradise on earth. This sparsely inhabited island is home to hundreds of species of flora and fauna found nowhere else on Earth. They discuss the island's unique biodiversity, and explore how improved education can help protect it from environmental threats.
