And what's happening brother? How are you?
Hey Joe, I'm good man. Good to see you man.
It's great to be here, thanks for having me.
I've been following your exploits on social media and the yellow caiman.
Yes.
Dude, that is a wild looking creature.
Isn't it? It's unbelievable.
It was thought to be extinct?
Yeah, so this one's, it's a little confusing.
It's a species that was last seen in, when the last one died in a zoo in the 80s.
And because of the region that it occupies in Columbia, which has always been controlled by Farc Rebels,
nobody had been back down there to look for it.
And myself, and there's actually this amazing Colombian scientist named Sergio Rihena,
we're both kind of going and prodding and trying to see if we could get in,
and we both found it within a month of each other.
Oh wow.
Yeah.
Now, it's a beautiful looking creature. Look at that thing.
Right.
It's such a wild green yellow color. So wild looking.
