She's a conservation biologist at the American Museum of Natural History. #Cuba #biodiversity #interviews #biology #scientists #conservation What is Cuba? What kinds of environments exist in Cuba? What is biodiversity? Why is it so important, anyway? Why is the biodiversity of Cuba so important? What plants or animals live only in Cuba? How does the biodiversity of Cuba differ from biodiversity around the world? How are animals in Cuba different than those in the U.S.? Can I see any of Cuba's animals at the zoo? Can I have one as a pet? Are there any invasive species in Cuba? How might Cuba's biodiversity change in the future?
