The original story can be found on hakaimagazine.com . Listeners, we have some important news. If you don’t get our weekly newsletter, you may not have heard that Hakai Magazine will be shutting down at the end of December. In July we found out that our long time funder is refocusing their efforts and won’t be funding us after 2024. So sad to say, this feed will be going blank at the end of this year. But we are happy to announce that our team has found a new home! In January, our senior staff will join bioGraphic, an award-winning magazine published by the California Academy of Sciences, a nonprofit research and education institution based in San Francisco. We’re absolutely delighted about this merger. Hakai Magazine and bioGraphic have so much in common: both are independent, nonprofit publications committed to telling deeply reported and rigorously accurate stories that are also beautiful to read. We hope you will come join us there! Please sign up for our newsletter and get more information by going to biographic.com/hakai-magazine .
