Robbie is joined by South African outfitter and Helix Program member Ruan of Inkulu Adventures to discuss his 21 years in the hunting industry and the meaning behind building his own safari operation from the conservation standpoint, to the community impact, and beyond. Ruan breaks down the significant costs involved in managing rhinos (security, insurance, fencing, feed, and anti-poaching measures) and explains why regulated rhino hunting provides critical revenue that incentivizes private landowners to maintain and protect rhino populations.  Do you have questions we can answer?

In one of our most accent-ridden podcasts ever, Robbie interviews three wildfowlers (Dave Upton, William Wykes, and Gerald Carlile) from all over the United Kingdom about their exploits in the marsh, the community and culture around “wildfowling” in the UK and the traditions they share. If you thought you heard some hectic accents before on the podcast - just wait till you listen to this one. However the topics that are covered in this podcast are the root of hunting worldwide, but focused on wildfowling (aka duck hunting in America). The individuals and Robbie explore the tradition, heritage, and elements that make wildfowling what it is, they even explore punt-gunning, though banned in the US, is still something you can do in the UK. Importantly the entire group talks about how self-regulating the waterfowling / wildfowling community is and why they self-regulate themselves. This is a must listen to podcast!

Mega charismatic fauna create a deep seated emotional response as it pertains their management - ie wolves, bears, and in Africa, elephants. Elephants are one of Africa's most debated conservation challenges, Robbie sits down with Dr. Sam Ferreira, large mammal ecologist for South African National Parks, unpacking the complex reality of elephant management in Kruger National Park. Drawing on decades of research, field experience, and real-time data, Ferreira challenges the common assumption that more elephants automatically mean more ecological damage, instead revealing how elephant behavior, resource distribution, and “ice cream aisle” habitat preferences drive localized impact. From historical human influence and shifting landscapes of fear to modern conservation constraints and adaptive management strategies, this conversation explores why managing elephants isn't about hitting a magic number but understanding the dynamic systems they shape.

Robbie is joined by Carel Verhoef, a photo tourism operator in the Serengeti area of Tanzania. After learning to love the world of protecting humans from human-wildlife conflict, Carel came up with a groundbreaking strategy to use thermal imaging drones to push elephants away from human habitation and crops. While not a hunter, his pragmatism is infectious and he puts some nuggets of wisdom out there on the reality of what is happening on the ground in Tanzania. Robbie stubled across Carel on LinkedIn where he posts incredible thermal drone videos of his team and their work in Tanzania. Please follow Carel on LinkedIn and if you have the desire to help, Carel is always looking for help to raise funds to purchase more drones. Do you have questions we can answer?

Leon Kachelhoffer, the current operator in the NG13 elephant hunting block in northern Botswana joins Robbie to talk about what it's like to operate in this hotspot. This episode was purposefully created so that we can unpack everything that has happened in the NG13 hunting block of Botswana. It has been a block that has made headlines news from 2022 when a big 100 pound elephant was taken there - ever since there has been a lo of anti hunting rhetoric, alongside issues of corruption, and more. We talked to Leon 2 weeks ago to get an idea of what is going on.
