The drought is hitting nature; the Wildlife Trusts warn that rivers, lakes and wetlands are under immense strain, leaving animals struggling to survive. Harvest 2026 has been the earliest in England for at least 20 years and yields have suffered from the heat and a lack of water, leaving farmers counting the cost. Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

A cat renowned for devouring wildlife in the Bay of Islands has been caught after three years. The feline fugitive is so infamous he has earned the nickname 'Nine Lives'. After a massive efffort to find him he has now been trapped in the Purerua Peninsula. It's too late for countless birds though, with Nine Lives thought to have killed on percent of the Pateke duck species. Pest-free Purerua Co-ordinator Andrew Mentor spoke to Melissa Chan-Green. 

The first mass mortality of Australian wildlife from the deadly H5 bird flu has been confirmed in greater crested terns found on an island off South Australia's south-east coast.

It's increasingly looking like the H5 N1 strain of bird flu is here to stay in Australia after more than 80 birds were found either dead or sick on South Australia's south-east coast.The federal government has allocated more funding to try and manage the outbreak.But wildlife rescuers are worried sick animals are being left to die.

This week on The Great Outdoors with Charlie Potter, key wetlands easement laws face growing threats, and the lasting impact of wildfires on wildlife.

Charles and Jon talk to mammalwatcher and environmental lawyer Brett Hartl from his home in Prescott, Arizona.After beginning his working life as a ranger in Montana's Glacier National Park, Brett went to law school and now coordinates the Center for Biological Diversity's work on federal legislative issues that affect endangered species and other environmental concerns.Brett explains how - and why - he made the transition from a field biologist to environmental lawyer.He explains the process behind mounting a legal case, using Wolverine protection as an example. And he outlines the vital role mammalwatchers can play in helping environmental advocacy groups mount a legal case (see notes below). And Brett talks about some of his favorite mammalwatching adventures including bumping into a Wolverine in Montana and swimming with Blue Whales in Sri Lanka.At the start of the episode we get an update from Marc Bozon about progress to date on his 2026 Big Cat Year. You can read all about Marc's adventures, and his support for conservation, on his website including his encounter with the mythical Bornean Bay Cat.Notes: Brett explained that if any mammalwatcher has seen, tried to see, or has plans to see, a specific species then you could be key to mounting a legal case to protect a that animal, particularly for one of the more obscure mammals where it can be hard to find someone who would personally be harmed by that species' extinction. We, however, can legitimately explain why our hopes and dreams are in tatters if that particular vole or shrew were to disappear. So if you would like to help US environmental advocacy groups protect mammals, then consider becoming a member of one of the key groups fighting to protect US wildlife: the Center for Biological Diversity, Defenders of Wildlife, NRDC, and/or Wildearth Guardians. If you would like to be a standing declarant in particular, feel free to reach out to Brett at bhartl@biologicaldiversity.org and he will keep your contact information for future legal fights to better protect mammals under the law.You can support mammalwatching and buy us a coffee here https://buymeacoffee.com/mammalwatchingFinally did you know you can sign up to receive a weekly mammalwatching newsletter here? https://www.mammalwatching.com/subscribe-to-updates/Cover art: Brett Hartl in the Central African Republic.Dr Charles Foley is a mammalwatcher and biologist who, together with his wife Lara, spent 30 years studying elephants in Tanzania.

A video circulating on social media showing four dogs confronting a seal on a beach has sparked concerns about how people and pet owners should behave around marine wildlife. The dogs appear to be off leash, while the encounter becomes increasingly tense before the owner eventually calls them back. Another man then approaches the seal, which charges at him, prompting him to slap the animal several times before it retreats. The incident highlights both the importance of keeping dogs under control on beaches and the need to give wild animals plenty of space, rather than attempting to touch, move or interact with them. Lisa Starr, media liaison for the Hout Bay Seal Rescue Centre and founder of the Helderberg Ocean Awareness Movement, speaks to Lester Kiewit about the incident and what beachgoers should and should not do when they encounter a seal.

Juliet and I have told pieces of this story over the years, but we've never sat down and told the whole thing from the beginning. This episode, I'm turning the tables and interviewing Juliet, because the full arc of how she ended up getting launched twelve feet into the air by a hippo on the Zambezi River is too good to tell any other way.It starts in the late 1990s, when Juliet was a D1 rower turned wilderness river guide in California: fit, competent on Class IV water, and completely unaware that a tryout on the Kern River was about to drop her onto one of the most storied women's extreme whitewater teams in the world. We're talking Kelly Califadich, Julie Munger, Beth Rippins, Sue Norman, Brooke Winger, Rebecca Rusch: true legends of the sport. Juliet was the youngest, the least experienced, and by Rebecca's nickname for her, the MEAT in the middle of the boat. What she had was athletic horsepower, the right mindset, and no real concept yet of what she'd signed up for.Winning nationals meant an all-expenses-paid trip to the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe for the 1997 World Championships. Two weeks of daily training in the Batoka Gorge: daily flips in Class V rapids, giardia, massive crocodiles between rapids, and a hundred-degree grueling hike in and out of the canyon every single day. Followed by a race they won. Then, because they'd budgeted a full month in-country, the team tacked on a five-day canoe safari at Mana Pools, Juliet's mom Janet included. Flat water. Wildlife. A chance to decompress.Emphasis on WILDlife.What Juliet describes about the moment of the hippo attack (the sound, the air, looking down into the open mouth of a four-thousand-pound animal) is something I still think about. And what she did in the seconds after hitting the water is the reason she's here to tell it.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhat it actually took to make a women's extreme whitewater World Championship team in the late 1990s — and why the word "extreme" matteredHow high-volume rivers like the Zambezi differ from the Class IV whitewater most people have experienced, and why that gap is bigger than it soundsWhat two weeks of daily training in the Batoka Gorge looks like: the hike in, the carnage, the giardia, and what finally made the flipping stopWhy hippos kill more people in Africa than almost any other large animal — and what makes their attacks so difficult to surviveWhat Juliet's guide told the team in the safety talk before the canoe safari, and why the locals already knew not to be thereThe split-second decision Juliet made in the water after the attack — and why years of river guiding made the differenceWhy a lifetime of athletic competition and high-stakes environments still didn't prepare Juliet for this particular kind of fearWhat "primal terror" actually feels like, and how it's different from the adrenaline fear of running a dangerous rapidKey Highlights: (00:00) Kelly sets up the episode: an interview with Juliet about a story that shaped their life together(00:45) How they met at the Extreme Whitewater World Championships in Chile, including Kelly's infamous Class V swim(01:53) What made this sport extreme: Camel Cigarette sponsorships, helicopter carnage footage, and Class V rivers worldwide(04:28) Juliet's four World Championship venues: the Zambezi, Reventazon, Orange River, and Futaleufú(06:26) The legendary women's team: Kalafatich, Munger, Rippins, Norman, and Rebecca Rusch(09:07) Juliet's origin story: D1 rowing at Berkeley, chasing a tan, and becoming a wilderness river guide(12:01) The tryout on the Kern River and the Monday phone call that changed her life(15:08) Winning nationals means Zimbabwe: understanding high-volume rivers for the first time(21:18) Two weeks in the Batoka Gorge: daily flips, giardia, crocodiles, and finding the Nyaminyami(29:42) Winning the World Championship and the greatest French fries of Juliet's life(32:42) The Ready State Mobility Coach(32:47) The canoe safari plan: five days on the lower Zambezi at Mana Pools, with Janet, Juliet's Mom(36:31) Gary's safety talk: machetes, three guns, hippos, crocs, lions, and snakes(38:31) Days one and two on the river: crocodile wakes, hippo pods, and the Jumanji paddle bang(41:57) Hippo City or Hippo Bronx: the democratic vote that nearly cost Juliet her life(45:40) The attack: a sound like a gunshot, launched 12 feet into the air, and swimming for their lives(50:17) Stranded on a Cape Buffalo island, Tupperware canoe repair, and three silent days to the takeout(57:13) Juliet can't be beat at the "share an interesting fact" ice-breaker game(58:24) Primal fear and why Juliet will never do a canoe safari again(59:36) Reacting under extreme pressure, not freezing in the moment(1:02:33) Hippo shrine

Good afternoon, I'm _ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening  The Tai-Ex opened slightly higher this morning at 40,048 points, with turnover of 15.7-billion N.T. dollars. The market fell sharply (大幅下跌) again on Wednesday, losing more than 1,500 points. Investors remain worried about the large amount of money companies are spending on artificial intelligence (人工智慧). MOFA to protest 'Taiwan, China' name in South Africa's ETA system The Ministry of Foreign Affairs says it will protest (抗議) South Africa's use of the name "Taiwan, China" in its Electronic Travel Authorization (旅行授權) system. Taiwanese travelers are not yet able to use the system. But reports say Taiwan appears in the website's passport menu under the incorrect (不正確的) name "Taiwan, China." The foreign ministry says Taiwan's representative office in Pretoria has been told to file a formal protest and ask South Africa to correct the name. Control Yuan refers former top trade negotiator, Yang Jen-ni to disciplinary court The Control Yuan has impeached (彈劾) former top trade negotiator Yang Jen-ni and sent her case to the Disciplinary Court. Yang was removed from her position last month after an investigation found that she repeatedly (一再地；反覆地) bullied her former deputy, Yen Huai-hsing. Yen resigned in February and died on March 12 at the age of 53. The Control Yuan says Yang seriously violated (違反) rules for public officials and should face a disciplinary review (懲戒審查). Yang denies any wrongdoing. TRUMP VOWS HEAVY STRIKES ON IRAN AFTER US INTERCEPTS BALLISTIC MISSILE ATTACK ON FORCES IN JORDAN U.S. President Donald Trump has promised heavy strikes on Iran after Iran's Revolutionary Guard fired several ballistic missiles (彈道飛彈) at U.S. military sites in Jordan on Tuesday. All of the missiles were intercepted (攔截). The attack ended a pause in the fighting. It came as U.S. and Saudi fighter jets carried out joint strikes on Iran-linked militia targets in Iraq. Iraq's Popular Mobilisation Forces says at least 20 people were killed. Iran says it does not want the conflict (衝突) to grow, but more countries are now becoming involved. Kate Fisher reports from Washington. Kenya elephants suspected to have been poisoned Wildlife officials in Kenya say 15 elephants may have been poisoned (中毒；被下毒) after eating tomatoes contaminated with cyanide (氰化物). The elephants died over the past month near Amboseli National Park in southern Kenya. Authorities have not said who may be responsible. In the past, some farmers have been suspected of poisoning elephants to protect their crops. The Kenya Wildlife Service says the contamination could also affect livestock (牲畜) in the area. Officials say the toxic substances (有毒物質) found in the elephants do not pose an immediate risk to people. That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

At just 10 years old, Jamie Smart has already achieved something most wildlife photographers only dream of - being crowned Young Wildlife Photographer of the Year at the Natural History Museum in London.But beyond the award itself lies something even more special: the way Jamie sees the natural world. In this conversation, we explore the curiosity, patience, and quiet observation behind her photography, as well as the moments that first sparked her love for wildlife.From early experiences in nature to standing on one of the biggest wildlife photography stages in the world, Jamie shares what it feels like to tell stories through a lens at such a young age, and why young voices matter so much in conservation storytelling.We also reflect on the powerful image of Jamie standing alongside legendary wildlife photographer Wim van der Heever - a moment that felt especially meaningful to me, knowing Wim's son Juan has become a close friend of mine.This is a conversation about wonder, creativity, and seeing the wild with fresh eyes.

For more than 50 years, the Endangered Species Act has served as America's most effective law for preventing extinction. At its core is a simple idea: protecting wildlife means protecting the habitats they depend upon. But a major policy change by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service could fundamentally alter that principle. In this episode of the Animal Wellness Podcast, host Joseph Grove examines the administration's decision to rescind the longstanding regulatory definition of “harm” under the Endangered Species Act—a change critics say weakens one of the law's most important conservation tools by removing habitat destruction from its traditional interpretation. Joining the discussion are four leading voices in conservation, environmental law, and wildlife protection who explore what this policy change could mean for endangered species, private landowners, public lands, and one of the most controversial wildlife-management programs in recent memory: the federal plan to kill as many as 450,000 barred owls over the next 30 years. You'll hear from: Wayne Pacelle, president of Animal Wellness Action and the Center for a Humane Economy Scott Edwards, environmental attorney and conservation advocate Ted Williams, veteran wildlife journalist and conservation writer Heather King (“Thee Owl Queen”), wildlife rescuer, photographer, and owl advocate This episode examines: Why habitat protection has long been central to the Endangered Species Act What the administration's new interpretation of “harm” actually changes How courts may respond to legal challenges already underway The role habitat restoration has played in recovering endangered species Whether wildlife conservation and private property rights can coexist Why critics believe the new rule threatens decades of conservation progress The contradiction between weakening habitat protections while authorizing the killing of hundreds of thousands of barred owls The scientific, ethical, and financial questions surrounding the federal barred-owl management plan Humane alternatives to large-scale wildlife killing What citizens can do to defend wildlife and the ecosystems upon which endangered species depend The debate over endangered species has never been simply about individual animals. It has always been about whether we are willing to protect the places that sustain life itself. This episode explores what may be at stake if that commitment begins to erode. Listen now to learn why many conservationists believe this may be one of the most consequential changes to the Endangered Species Act in decades—and what it could mean for America's wildlife future. Take action! Let your legislators know you demand a stop to the insane scheme to kill 450,000 barred owls. Take action here TODAY! Watch our webinar on the barred owl kill plan—and why it needs to be stopped.

What is wilderness when seven billion people share the planet and nowhere remains truly untouched? Author and journalist Cal Flyn discusses her book The Savage Landscape with EconTalk host Russ Roberts, weaving together journeys to some of Earth's most remote places, including a live volcanic eruption in Iceland she hiked toward despite the danger. Flyn rejects the myth of pristine, unpeopled wilderness, revealing that the wildest-looking landscapes have been shaped by humans for centuries. She explores spiritual quests at Mount Sinai, the return of predators to Europe, the uncomfortable economics of trophy hunting, and why we secretly crave discomfort in an age of endless comfort.

Colorado Parks and Wildlife's (CPW) new Firearms Safety System application is now open ahead of the August 1 implementation of Senate Bill 25-003 (SB25-003).The new law establishes firearms safety training requirements for the purchase or transfer of specified semiautomatic firearms in Colorado.

176 Open Fields Doctrine - With Chief Travis McLain This week on Warden's Watch, Wayne sits down with Missouri Department of Conservation Chief of Protection Travis McLain to tackle one of the most misunderstood topics in conservation law: the Open Fields Doctrine. As both a conservation officer and attorney, Travis breaks down where the doctrine came from, what it actually means, and why protecting wildlife resources requires a balance between private property rights and public trust responsibilities.

United States  What the Fourth Amendment protects and what it doesn't  Why open fields are different from homes, curtilage, papers, and personal effects  "The Constitution really does apply to conservation officers, just like other police officers."  Why there isn't a game warden behind every tree  How conservation officers prioritize calls, complaints, and active hunting and fishing activity  Respecting private landowners while protecting public wildlife resources  The connection between the Open Fields Doctrine and the Public Trust Doctrine  How wildlife belongs to all citizens, not individual landowners  The history of wildlife management in North America  Robin Hood, the King's deer, and the roots of wildlife law  Why the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation is unique  The role of science and public input in setting regulations  Wildlife management as a balance of biological and social factors  Missouri's recovery from just 2,000 deer to around a million!  "What got us there when they start thinking about totally upsetting the apple cart or changing the system."  How conservation law enforcement supports long-term wildlife sustainability  The importance of relationships between agencies, landowners, and sportsmen  Why 93% of Missouri being privately owned creates unique challenges  What could happen if conservation officers couldn't investigate wildlife violations on private land  The role regulations play in protecting future generations of wildlife  Why enforcement is about protecting resources, not writing tickets  Conservation officers as educators and community partners  How officers are trained to respect private property rights  Social media misconceptions about conservation law enforcement  Why many large landowners welcome conservation officers onto their properties  Protecting hunting opportunities for everyone  How officers provide valuable field information back to wildlife biologists  Baiting, disease transmission, and fair chase concerns  "Rules without enforcement are just suggestions."  The Boone and Crockett Club's Poach and Pay study  Why the biggest deterrent to poaching is the presence of a capable guardian  How major wildlife cases often begin with small observations in the field  The difference between making cases and protecting resources  "It's not about the case.

This week on The Great Outdoors with Charlie Potter, Charlie to talk about the benefits to virtual fencing which uses GPS-enabled collars on livestock to create invisible, app-defined boundaries and prevents fatal wildlife entanglements, allows migratory species to roam freely, and enables ranchers to steer cattle away from known carnivore territories.

A new bill in Congress would dramatically expand the killing of seals and sea lions in Washington waters in the name of salmon recovery. We're joined by Casey McLean, executive director and veterinary nurse at SR3, to examine the history and science behind pinniped culls—and why removing predators from a complex marine ecosystem could have serious unintended consequences. We discuss the lack of current pinniped population data, the many human-caused pressures affecting salmon, the absence of clear monitoring and measures of success in the proposed legislation, and the overlooked dietary needs of the growing Bigg's killer whale population. We also explore where the bill stands and how listeners can make their voices heard.

There are few topics in the hunting world that will spark a debate faster than this one.Should hunters even have to buy a hunting license?Recently, a Florida gubernatorial candidate stated that he doesn't believe hunters should have to purchase one. And while this conversation may have started with a political statement, the bigger issue is much more important.It comes down to understanding what a hunting license actually is.Because a hunting license isn't just a fee. It isn't just a piece of paper or another government requirement.It's one of the foundations of the conservation system that brought American wildlife back from the brink.Today, we're looking at the history of the hunting license, why it was created, where the money goes, and what could happen if we removed it.We'll talk about how America nearly lost species like the bison, how hunters helped rebuild those populations, and why the same system that funds hunting today is also responsible for protecting countless other species.Because the question isn't just, “Why do I need a hunting license?”The real question is:If hunting licenses disappear tomorrow, who pays for conservation?UPO Gear & Such- https://uponation.co/ UPO Social Media- https://linktrh.ee/underpressureoutdoorsBecome a Patron- https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45295718Deep Roots Rifle Company- Use Code UPO10 to save 10%

The Texas Wildlife Association (TWA) Larry records this episode from the JW Marriott in San Antonio during the 41st annual Texas Wildlife Association convention. He shares the founding story of the TWA from 1985, which began after he received a call from David Palmer, an assistant director of law enforcement. Larry, along with Gary Machen and Murphy Ray, initially met in a broom closet (room 232) in Austin before moving to Jim's Restaurant to draft a list of 50 key landowners. Today, the organization's youth hunting program has introduced nearly 100,000 children to hunting. In 2025 alone, their legacy programs provided wildlife education to 1.2 million school children. Larry promotes the upcoming DSC Summer Expo, taking place July 23-26 at the Gaylord Texan Resort in Grapevine, Texas, featuring over 400 booths. The DSC Foundation Gala will be held on the evening of July 25th to raise funds for wildlife conservation and education. The gala will feature the presentation of the Legacy Award to Steve Hornady. Larry is auctioning off two personal items at the gala: a custom laser-engraved Savage Model 99 and his heavily traveled signature brown hat. He notes that the DSC Foundation recently distributed $1.2 million in grants to highly vetted conservation projects. Larry, approaching 80 years old, outlines his philosophy on wildlife management, distinguishing between conservation and preservation. He defines conservation as a practice that promotes life and carefully considers the habitat for all species. Conversely, he views preservation as having "tunnel vision" that ignores how protecting one specific species impacts the broader ecosystem. In a humorous critique of predator reintroduction advocates, he suggests that grizzly bears should be released into major California cities like Los Angeles and Sacramento so their supporters can live alongside them. Larry is expanding his digital footprint by releasing new 10-to-30-minute bonus video podcasts filmed directly from the field. These new video podcasts will be available on YouTube and CarbonTV. He also invites listeners to follow his new TikTok channel, @LWsWhitetails, where he shares periodic short hunting stories. He continues to co-host "A Sportsman's Life" with Jeff Rice and Luke Clayton, as well as his ongoing audio podcast work.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour with Andy Riesmeyer Hour 1 (7.20) Andy Riesmeyer is filling in for Tim Conway Jr. tonight, kicking things off with the tragic shooting near Santa Monica Pier early this morning after a fight broke out — another sad sign of how far the once-beautiful Santa Monica has fallen. Andy rants against AI-generated art, posters and music, noting Spotify now has 100 million songs (up from 25 million last year) with many likely AI-created. On a lighter note, meet Jimothy — the adorably weird raccoon from Seattle with a congenital spine condition giving him long legs and a short back — who’s become an internet star with his own tattoos. A hot new dating dealbreaker for women? Men who still have roommates. And in a real “shell” of a story, six people were busted at Santa Monica Pier for poaching 34 spiny lobsters (some pregnant) in backpacks, gym bags, and a baby stroller — caught by Fish & Wildlife officers with the help of lobster-sniffing dogs.
