On the new season of Going Wild, podcast host and acclaimed wildlife ecologist Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant explores the human drama of saving animals, bringing more stories of her own and highlighting the stories of fellow conservationists who put their lives on the line to protect the world around us. Listeners will learn how who these scientists are as people—whether they’re a parent, a grieving child, or someone who’s misunderstood by society—deeply affects their work.
This season, you’ll hear from wildlife scientists who are doing all kinds of amazing work like studying hyenas in Kenya or working with coyotes in California, and even tracking sharks in Florida. And just like me, they run into all kinds of drama in their work. The animals they study are great, but who they are as people and how that affects their work is just as interesting.
Going Wild takes listeners deep into the hidden worlds of endangered animals and the action-packed adventures of the wildlife conservationists protecting their futures. We have brand new episodes starting September 27th. Subscribe now to Going Wild, wherever you get your podcasts, and follow along on pbs-wnet-preprod.digi-producers.pbs.org/nature.
