#209 Ethical Wildlife Tourism Jul 06, 2022

Show notes

In this episode, something different. A few months ago I was asked to host an episode of UNpacked, tackling the question: what is ethical wildlife tourism? This is that investigation, originally released by www.afar.com/unpacked.

The Into The Wilderness podcast is a www.modernhuntsman.com production. Purchase the full back catalogue of volumes on the website

There's nothing quite like a magical, transportive animal encounter—but how do we ensure those encounters are good for the animals (and good for the places we visit)? Journalist Byron Pace, host of the Into the Wilderness Podcast, takes us on a journey around the world, talking with wildlife experts ranging from a shark scientist in Australia to a California-based biologist.

#208 Lloyd Morse: Food sourcing and the joy of venison Jun 18, 2022

Show notes

In the early part of 2022 I headed north of Inverness in Scotland to join Lloyd Morse and Sam Thompson in search of deer; deer which was destined for the plate of customers in The Palmerston restaurant in Edinburgh—recently named one of the top 100 places to eat in the UK. The is an episode about food sourcing and the delight of being enthused by the raw ingredients of a meal, from a man not afraid to say it as it is. I got to eat some of the best sika venison of my life, but for you, dear listener, you will just have to hear about that and head to The Palmerston yourself.

#206 Tecovas Outpost Ep2: Malou Andersen-Ramirez. Ranching with nature May 12, 2022

Show notes

This is episode 206 and our second episode of the Tecovas Outpost series. If you want to hear the first episode in this series, go back to Ep.195 and the brilliant interview with Matt Skogland from North Bridger Bison, recorded in the sagebrush steppe of Montana. The Outpost series brings you stories of the wilderness from the American west, from people who live, breathe and work on the land. You can read articles related to this series on the Tecovas website.

In this show, I speak with Malou Andersen-Ramirez from her family ranch in the greater Yellowstone ecosystem. She speaks of the shifting mindsets around living with wild animals alongside livestock, and in particular large predators — the most controversial of all. But more than that, Malou offers a view of the natural world which encourages observation and alignment with natural processes in order to live more in step with nature.
