To learn about Antarctica’s cetaceans, today I sat down with Ari Friedlaeder, PhD, professor of Ocean Sciences and Marine Sciences at UC Santa Cruz, and the principal investigator at the Friedlaeder Bio-Telemetry & Behavioral Ecology Lab. Ari and I explore the foundational years of his life, including how his sports background helped him become a better marine biologist, when and how whales entered his life, the magical opportunity that began his career in Antarctica, all things Antarctic cetaceans, the discoveries he’s made about whales through the use of innovative tech, how he started his relationship with the tourism industry, the costs and benefits of tourism in Antarctica, if the region’s fisheries should be shut down or modified, lots of stories in the field, and how he’s now shifting his focus to mentoring students and spending time at home with his wife and young children.

Andrew Budziak is a Canadian wildlife photographer and filmmaker, and specializes in urban wildlife. His recently-released 6-part docuseries visits multiple urban centers across Canada, showcasing both the pleasures of visiting cultural hubs, and the wildlife that call them home. I sat down with Andrew to discuss how wildlife photography and filmmaking entered his life after receiving training in journalism, how he decides which projects to take on, when he became obsessed with urban wildlife, how the idea for Edge of Frame came to be, how he balances his workload with being a father and husband, and what he hopes to see in the future to protect the wildlife that has learned to live with us.

To virtually explore Patagonia, I invited Liliana Kusanovic onto the show. Liliana and I discuss so much including why her father decided to go into hospitality when he had no experience in the field, how her family’s land went from being a failing cattle business to a thriving sustainable tourism destination called Las Torres Reserve, the methods they used to increase wildlife biodiversity on their land, how conservation and tourism in Patagonia have changed over the years, the sustainable practices they’ve adopted, and her hopes for the future. Vote for Las Torres Reserve for the 2023 World Travel Awards! https://lastorres.com/en/news/las-torres-is-nominated-for-the-world-travel-awards-2023-in-south-american-responsible-tourism/ Read full show notes at: https://rewildology.com/category/show-notes/ Recording gear provided by Focusrite: https://store.focusrite.com/en-gb/categories/focusrite/vocaster/vocaster-one Support the Show Donate: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=F78QPCYDUBDGC Rewildology Swag Store: https://rewildology.com/shop/ Subscribe to the Show YouTube: https://youtube.com/@Rewildology Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3oW6artLcvxX0QoW1TCcrq?si=6857dd2795144949 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rewildology/id1549581778 Podchaser: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/rewildology-1588980 PodBean: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-detail/j4552-193b7c/Rewildology-Podcast Castbox: https://castbox.fm/channel/Rewildology-id5300079?country=us Amazon/Audible: https://www.amazon.com/Rewildology/dp/B08JJT8D4F iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-rewildology-77329541/ Follow Rewildology Rewildologists Community Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/rewildologists Instagram: https://instagram.com/rewildology/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rewildology Twitter: https://twitter.com/rewildology LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rewildology/

This episode had to be included in the Wildest Hits series! Originally released in April 2022, this conversation had the most downloads and shares across the internet. Why? Aaron is a wolf expert and grew up on a ranch just outside of Yellowstone. He understands why people hate and love wolves. I was happy to finally sit down with someone that could answer all of my questions about wolves in northern US states. Please enjoy this highly popular episode with Aaron.

Today we are sitting down with Vedran Slijepčević, DVM, wildlife veterinarian, and a founder of the LIFE Lynx project. Vedran and I discuss his life’s journey and how he became a veterinarian, large carnivore researcher, senior lecturer, and seasoned hunter. We then chat about wildlife management and how Croatia manages its large carnivores. Following, we explore all aspects of the lynx’s life; their natural history, why they became almost extinct in the Dinaric Mountains, issues the population is currently facing, and how Vedran’s project, LIFE Lynx, is bringing them back. And of course, sprinkled throughout the conversation is the human dimension of coexisting with lynx, because, as we’ve learned, engaging local communities is crucial to conserving wildlife.

Today we are sitting down with Polish author, Anna Maziuk. Beginning in 2014, Anna dedicated her life to telling the story of Poland’s wolves through a human lens. In the following six years, she met with biologists and various stakeholder groups to write her book, Instynkt, About wolves in Polish forests. Anna and I have a wonderful time exploring her childhood growing up in Poland’s forests, why she went into journalism, the moment she became hooked on wolves, the past, present and future of wolves in Poland, and what it was like for her to sit down and interview people with opposite views than her.
