Part Five of Born Wild: Koda's Odyssey, Volume Two begins with the mistake the clans always knew was coming. Summer settles over the forest and brings people with it. More hikers, more campers, more cameras scanning the ridgelines for a postcard moment to carry home.The sasquatch do what they've always done when the world crowds in, pulling back into the heavy timber, moving only in the gray hours, eating less and resting less and watching more.But discipline can only stretch so far, and out in a dense stretch of old growth four miles from the nearest trail, a wildlife photographer named David Reeves is about to point his lens at something no magazine will ever publish.David isn't a weekend tourist. He's patient, serious, and good enough at reading the backcountry to go exactly where he shouldn't. That's the problem. One glimpse, one held breath, and suddenly the secret three years of caution were meant to protect is sitting exposed in the viewfinder of a man who knows what he's looking at.What follows tests everything Koda and the clans have built. A single photograph in the wrong hands could bring the whole outside world down on them, and the choices the sasquatch make in the hours after that encounter carry a weight none of the earlier fights ever did.This is the danger the clans have always feared most, and it doesn't come with claws or howls. It comes with a camera.Email BrianJoin Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

HOUR 3- Box of Shame, A Wildlife Expert and MORE full 1937 Fri, 28 Aug 2026 15:40:00 +0000 uOpeizhFUf54vTyhvXRhOAiUOCQ35Wec society & culture Klein/Ally Show: The Podcast society & culture HOUR 3- Box of Shame, A Wildlife Expert and MORE Klein.Ally.Show on KROQ is more than just a "dynamic, irreverent morning radio show that mixes humor, pop culture, and unpredictable conversation with a heavy dose of realness." (but thanks for that quote anyway). Hosted by Klein, Ally, and a cast of weirdos (both on the team and from their audience), the show is known for its raw, offbeat style, offering a mix of sarcastic banter, candid interviews, and an unfiltered take on everything from culture to the chaos of everyday life. With a loyal, engaged fanbase and an addiction for pushing boundaries, the show delivers the perfect blend of humor and insight, all while keeping things fun, fresh, and sometimes a little bit illegal. 2024 © 2021 Audacy, Inc.

Today was a weird one! Klein is outta town, but weirdly you still heard him at least half the time on today's show. We know times like this can be confusing and disorienting. Deal with it, sugar tits! Klein is likely in Idaho, Iowa or Indiana. We're not sure and neither is he, but one thing he knows: Sidney Sweeney is likely staying in the same complex. Will he make her horribly uncomfortable by staring at her with his murder eyes from across the pool? We'll find out when he gets back on Monday! We still covered a lot on today's show. A new Box Of Shame where Ally let the elevator doors close on a handicapped person, Klein embarrassing himself (again) when one of his D Pics showed up on his family digital calendar. We also learned Johnny has no idea what a Peninsula is but DOES know where Dagestan is, and we talked to a Wildlife expert about the many animals infiltrating our neighborhoods due to the never-ending heatwaves.

Ever wish you could have been part of the Lewis and Clark expedition? Us too. The Corps of Discovery came across scores of plants and animals that were new to Western science: Grizzly bears, ponderosa pines, a “barking squirrel” that William Clark would later call the prairie dog. A modern effort is underway to see how much the country's wildlife has changed in the 220-some years since their journey. Host Nate Rott tags along with some scientists re-surveying a part of the expedition's route in western Montana. And he wishes he was in better shape.Interested in more science in the news?

Spike, Jonny, and Zuckerman take the stage live at the 75th Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance for their annual charity show. They break down the biggest reveals from The Quail, dig into collector car market trends, and field Q&A from a crowd that clearly knows too much about cars. ______________________________________________ GRAB SOME SCR MERCH: https://spikescarradio.com GET MORE SCR ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/spikescarradio ______________________________________________ Recorded live at Pebble Beach, this one covers a lot of ground. Jonny recaps The Quail, including the manual V8 McLaren MCL6 GT, the 850-horsepower Aston Martin Valiant, the Brabus Bodo, and Gordon Murray Automotive's $8.5 million SV S1. Then there's the Singer x Louis Vuitton collab, which Spike is not thrilled about, versus the Toy Story Porsche 911 GT3 RS at Werks, which actually pulled kids into the hobby. On the collector car market trends front: a pristine 4-cam Porsche 356B Carrera GS/GT hammered at $280,000 (about half its estimate), signaling softening values across vintage classics. Meanwhile, Carroll Shelby's personal 1964 Daytona Cobra Coupe sold for $42 million, the most expensive American car ever at auction. Paul Zuckerman breaks down why that gap exists, and then pivots to legally dissecting a Fish and Wildlife officer who tased a man pumping gas and set him on fire. Common sense, people. The audience Q&A gets into: enthusiast cars under $100k (Toyota MR2 revival, AMG CLA 45 EV, Subaru Solterra), best sedans for airport runs, whether auction buyers are investors or enthusiasts, the PPF debate (Spike says no, Jonny says yes, Zuckerman compares it to plastic sofa covers), first cars for teenagers, and the first brand-new cars each host ever bought. Spike got a Boxster. Zuckerman got a dark blue E39 M5. Nobody made a bad call. _____________________________________________

DUCKS UNLIMITED NATION TRIP AUCTION!What if saving one species could help protect entire ecosystems and ways of life?Recorded at Ducks Unlimited's 89th National Convention, host Jimbo Robinson sits down with renowned National Geographic photographer Carlton Ward Jr. for a conversation about storytelling, wildlife conservation, and the connections between people, landscapes, and the species that depend on them.Carlton shares how a career that began documenting wildlife in Africa eventually led him back home to Florida, where he became one of the leading voices behind the Florida Wildlife Corridor movement. The discussion explores the role of photography in conservation, the importance of connected habitat, and how species like the Florida panther help tell a larger story about preserving working lands, watersheds, and wildlife for future generations.Along the way, Carlton explains how storytelling helped inspire real conservation policy, why private land conservation matters, and how hunters, landowners, and conservationists can work together to protect landscapes at scale.Topics CoveredCarlton Ward Jr.'s path into conservation photographyThe Florida Wildlife Corridor projectWildlife corridors and habitat connectivityHow photography can influence conservation policyThe story behind Path of the PantherFlorida panthers, bears, and landscape conservationPrivate land conservation and conservation easementsLessons for hunters and conservationists nationwideListen now: www.ducks.org/DUPodcastSend feedback: DUPodcast@ducks.orgSPONSORS:Bird Dog Whiskey and Cocktails:Whether you're winding down with your best friend, or celebrating with your favorite crew, Bird Dog brings award-winning flavor to every moment.

This episode is a wild ride, folks, as our host delves into the world of wildlife crossings and the surprising benefits they bring to the table. From a 15 million dollar overpass in Colorado to the national numbers on wildlife vehicle crashes, this conversation will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about road safety.This episode is all about exploring the effectiveness of wildlife crossings and the numbers that back it up. Our host digs into the details of a specific project in Colorado, where a bridge was built to help elk and mule deer cross a busy highway safely. But it's not just about this one project - it's about the bigger picture of how wildlife crossings can make a real difference in preventing crashes and saving lives. Along the way, our host touches on some unexpected topics, like the cost of filling your tires with helium.As our host digs deeper into the numbers, we learn that wildlife vehicle crashes are a 10 billion dollar a year problem, with over 200 deaths annually. But the good news is that wildlife crossings paired with fencing can reduce large mammal collisions by 80-97%. That's a pretty compelling argument for investing in these types of projects. But it's not all good news - our host also explores the challenges of maintenance and the importance of getting the location right.If you're curious about the numbers and the impact of wildlife crossings, this episode is a must-listen. Our host breaks down the math and shares some surprising insights that will make you think twice about the way we approach road safety. So grab a cup of coffee, settle in, and get ready to learn something new.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At their lowest point, fewer than 1,000 grizzly bears remained in the lower 48 states — pushed out of 98% of their historic range by bounties, poison, and fear. In this episode of Back From The Brink from Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant sits down with wildlife biologist and Tooth and Claw podcast co-host Wes Larson to tell the full story of how grizzlies came back — from the garbage dump bears of Yellowstone to the ranchers opening their land, to the corridors slowly reconnecting a species to its home.Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom is back with the series, Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom Protecting the Wild!

There's little doubt your hunting season will be affected by the hundreds of wildfires that have devastated vast swaths of bird country. So how do we make the most of it, balancing ethics, conservation, and our own passion? Mikal Cline is the Upland Game Bird Coordinator at Oregon's Dept. of Fish and Wildlife; Justin Small is Upland Game Staff Specialist at Nevada's Dept. of Wildlife. Two biologists who hunt, they've got a unique perspective on how fire impacts birds and their habitat. We'll learn how birds react to fire, which ones will likely survive and which won't, what they do and where they go. We'll explore the short- and long-term aftermaths, and understand why a conservative approach to each hunter's bag is critical. There are nuggets on best post-fire habitat, alternate species to hunt, and a few eye-opening observations. "Fix it" has advice on another way to find ground that hasn't been hammered by other hunters. The social segment covers things we've switched from - and to - for this season. And it's all brought to you by: Mid Valley Clays and Shooting School, CableGangz, TrulockChokes, USA Clay Target League, Purina Pro Plan Sport and FindBirdHuntingSpots.com.

Over the past five decades, Nepal has established itself as a model for wildlife conservation. Nearly 20 percent of the country's territory has been designated as protected areas. An effective anti-poaching policy has helped save iconic species such as the one-horned rhinoceros and the gharial crocodile, which were once on the brink of extinction. But this success also comes with tragic consequences.

Bonus episode from the newsletter On This Day in Women's History! On August 12-13, 1967, Glacier National Park had a double tragedy: two 19-year-old girls were hiking in separate groups in separate parts of the park. Both were attacked by grizzly bears. For Julie and Michele, the results were deadly. But for other people and bears, the tragedy had more positive consequences. As a result of this night, wildlife management changed. Many familiar policies were instituted after this night to keep both humans and bears safe.

Shared courtesy of Lydia Pagel.A quote from LydiaStanding above us, above the build of our town, Mount Franklin is the landmark and the trademark of where we live. "A mountain," Carl Sandburg said, "is something that's fastened down, something you can count on.'' By that token, a mountain is a talisman in our hearts. In looking at Mount Franklin, up there, we lift our eyes toward the sky.- by Tom Lea.Episode DescriptionFranklin Mountains State Park with Ranger Lydia — Part 2 | Trails, Desert Adventure & Protecting a Wild LandscapePart 2 takes us deeper into Franklin Mountains State Park as Ranger Lydia joins me again to talk about what it's really like to explore one of the most unique landscapes in the Texas State Park system.We hit the trails, talking about some of the park's most popular routes, where first-time visitors should start, and where experienced hikers can find a little more challenge and solitude. Lydia also shares what visitors need to know before hiking in the Chihuahuan Desert, especially when those West Texas temperatures start climbing.But hiking is only part of the story.We get into rock climbing and bouldering, mountain biking, wildlife and birding, camping beneath the West Texas sky, ranger-led programs, and some of the best times of year to experience the Franklin Mountains.Then we turn to something just as important as exploring the park: protecting it.Lydia talks about the challenges of managing recreation in such a fragile desert ecosystem, Leave No Trace issues like cutting switchbacks, conservation and restoration efforts, volunteer opportunities, and the balance between giving people access to these incredible mountains while preserving them for the future.We also look ahead at what could be next for Franklin Mountains State Park, and I give Lydia one final challenge:If someone has never visited Franklin Mountains State Park, what's your pitch to get them there?If Part 1 introduced you to Lydia and the heart behind Franklin Mountains State Park, Part 2 is about getting out there and experiencing it.

This week, John Burn-Murdoch speaks with Derek Gow, the British farmer, conservationist, author and rewilding pioneer who has become one of the UK's most outspoken advocates for large-scale species reintroductions.From his farm in Devon, Derek breeds native British animals, including species that have been absent from the UK for centuries. His goal is to demonstrate what is possible when conservation ambition matches the scale of the ecological challenges we face.A passionate supporter of reintroducing beavers across the country, Derek argues that restoring them into the wild can play a crucial role in tackling climate change, reducing flood risk, reviving wetlands and making landscapes more resilient to extreme weather.His views have frequently brought him into conflict with parts of the farming establishment. Yet Derek insists that productive agriculture and ambitious rewilding are not mutually exclusive, and that with the right political leadership, the two can thrive side by side.* WhatsApp: 0330 123 9480  * Email: radical@bbc.co.ukEpisodes of Radical are released every Thursday and Monday.

When it opens in December, the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing will be the largest in the world. Stretched over a 10-lane freeway, it is meant to save the California Mountain Lion population, which has become fragmented by the highway. It could also serve as a model for other projects, as crossings of this kind have often been viewed as too large to be effective. So, will the crossing work? We examine the construction and the existing scientific data to find out.

Host Trey Reid talks with Jessica Feltz of the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission's Conservation Support Division about how social science informs hunting, fishing, and conservation decisions. Feltz explains the “three-legged stool” of conservation—species, habitat, and people—and why understanding human behavior is essential for effective management. She describes tools like facilitated public meetings, interviews, focus groups, and scientifically designed surveys, including the biennial regulations survey, emphasizing it is not a vote but a way to predict how changes may affect public behavior and experiences. Feltz details the intensive process of coding tens of thousands of public comments for themes and shares examples such as focus groups on trout permit fee increases, a multi-year bear hunter study, and trends like younger waterfowl hunters and older trout anglers.

When it opens in December, the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing will be the largest in the world. Stretched over a ten-lane freeway, it is meant to save the California Mountain Lion population, and to help numerous other species in the area whose habitat has become fragmented by the road. It could also serve as a model for similar sites around the world, as in the past, highways of a certain size have been viewed as too big to host wildlife crossing. But, will the project work? We take a look at what is needed to build a crossing of this size, whether crossings really address the root of the problem, and what the existing scientific literature says about how effective wildlife crossings can be.

In honor of Ryan Leone's birthday, Dopey returns to one of his most unforgettable appearances—a brutally honest account of creativity, addiction, ambition, relapse, and the struggle to stay alive. Ryan explains how receiving a free gram of cocaine before visiting Tommy Lee's house triggered the worst relapse of his life. Cocaine became crack, depression led him toward self-administered ketamine treatments, and a cycle of steroids, psychedelics, heroin, and fentanyl nearly destroyed his family and career. In the episode's most unbelievable story, Ryan accidentally injects approximately 60 hits of liquid LSD after confusing it with ketamine. He drives through California while hallucinating that his fiancée and children are in the car, encounters a dead body in the road, and eventually wakes up in a teepee-shaped motel room before being hospitalized. Ryan also describes his progression from heroin to fentanyl, multiple overdoses, fighting naked inside a detox, starting methadone, and finally understanding what powerlessness means. Dave and Ryan discuss the dangerous mythology of the drug-addicted artist, Ryan's identification with Hunter S. Thompson, the toll his public persona took on his family, and whether he could remain creative without heroin. A classic Dopey conversation with the late writer, filmmaker, father, and unforgettable friend of the show, Ryan Leone. RIP PALABRA & MORE   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Today's host is Robby Denning. He recently attended the triennial Nevada Mule Deer Summit held in Ely, Nevada July 23rd-25th, 2026. The Summit hosted a plethora of wildlife professionals speaking on everything about mule deer Mule Deer Survival Migrations Mule deer response to fires (this one was super interesting) Population Densities Predation Hunting for a better future Competition between elk and deer The downside of high Buck:Doe ratios and so much more. Speakers included Kevin Monteith of the Monteith Shop, Randy Larsen of BYU, and Toby Boudreau of Idaho Fish and Game.  All of these speakers have been guests on the Rokcast. Besides these, at least 10 other wildlife professionals shared how the various Western wildlife agencies are working to ensure a future for mule deer. One of these, Cody Schroeder of Nevada Division of Wildlife stepped up to the Rokcast mic to discuss his topic for the Summit: "Understanding the Primary Drivers of Mule Deer Survival in Nevada".  This is Cody's 2nd time on the Rokcast (his episode on Nevada Mule Deer Management Trade-offs is here https://www.ndow.org/) So listen in to understand how Nevada's mule deer can recover from this latest downturn.  We saw a similar population decline in the early 1980s, but by the later years of that decade, Nevada herds were peaking again. Cody shares what it takes to get a mule deer herd growing and thriving again. Rokcast is powered by onX Hunt.
