What is Emma’s favorite colour?
EMMA: “My favorite colour? Oh, that would be green, without a doubt. Green is the color of life, nature, and renewal. It reminds me of the lush forests, vibrant meadows, and all the wonderful plants that provide homes and food for countless creatures.
Every time I see the colour green, it fills me with a sense of peace and hope. It symbolizes growth and the incredible beauty of our natural world. From the leaves of a towering tree to the delicate fronds of a fern, green is everywhere in nature, reminding us of the precious and delicate balance we must protect.”
What is Emma’s favorite song?
EMMA: “Easy! “Circle of Life” by Elton John and “Born to Be Wild” by Steppenwolf”
What is Emma’s top favorite animal of all time?
EMMA: “Honestly, I can’t choose just one favorite animal because I genuinely love all of them! Each animal has its own unique qualities and fascinating behaviors that make it special. Whether it’s the intelligence of dolphins, the grace of cheetahs, the intricate social structures of ants, or the sheer power of a tiger, I find every species incredible in its own way. I just have so much respect and admiration for the entire animal kingdom, and I feel like every creature deserves appreciation and love.”
What is Emma’s favorite creepy but cool creatures of all time?
EMMA: “I know some people find octopuses creepy with their squishy bodies and eight arms, but they are so cool! They’re incredibly smart—able to solve puzzles and open jars. Their camouflage skills are off the charts, changing color and texture in seconds. Each arm can move independently, they have three hearts and blue blood, and they can even squirt ink to escape predators. Plus, they can regenerate lost limbs! Octopuses are like the superheroes of the ocean.”

When did Emma start being an Earth Rangers?
EMMA: “Believe it or not, I became an Earth Ranger when I was only 8 years old. Our school had a visit from an Earth Rangers show team and I got to meet Cosmo the Lemur and Sonic the Barn owl for the first time. That was a long time ago, and I had a long way to go and many things to learn to get from there to here, but that was the moment I signed up to become a member and I knew I wanted to work here.”
Why was Emma chosen for the podcast in the first place?
EMMA: “I was chosen to be a wildlife reporter because of my deep passion for animals and the natural world. Ever since I was little, I’ve been fascinated by wildlife and spent countless hours reading about different species and their habitats. I’ve always loved sharing what I learn with others, whether it’s through writing, social media, or just talking to friends and family. Plus, I’ve had some amazing hands-on experiences, like volunteering at local animal shelters and participating in wildlife conservation projects. My enthusiasm, combined with my commitment to educating others about the importance of conservation, really stood out. I think my genuine love for wildlife and my ability to communicate that excitement effectively made me the perfect fit for this role.”

What is the most creepy/uncanny/scary adventure Emma has ever been on?
EMMA: “Oh that would have to be time I went on an overnight research expedition in the Great Bear Rainforest! That time I met a g-ghost bear!”
What is Emma’s favorite animal myth?
EMMA: There are many! I’ve been looking into a lot of myths lately. Stay tuned for the next season to find out more!!!
Does Emma have any future plans as an Earth Ranger?
EMMA: “I can’t even begin to describe how thrilled I am to be a wildlife reporter! Every day, I get to explore the incredible wonders of the natural world and share them with others. From documenting the migration patterns of birds to uncovering the secrets of deep-sea creatures, it’s like living in a never-ending adventure. I love educating people about the importance of conservation and the amazing diversity of life on our planet.
What excites me most is that there’s always something new to discover, and I get to be on the front lines, telling those stories. I’m so passionate about wildlife and the environment, and I can’t wait to continue doing this for many years to come. There’s no greater joy than inspiring others to appreciate and protect the natural world!”
