Leave it to beavers, seriously
9 maart 2021 · 27 min
Hi everyone. We’ve missed bringing you new episodes of The Wild, but that’s about to change. We’re kicking off our third season on April 6th. We’ve got lots of exciting wildlife adventures to share including a trip to Central America and the country of Belize. The jungles are teaming with wildlife there. It’s one of the most bio-diverse places on the planet. I don’t want to give too much away about the trip just yet, but I’ll give you a hint....Jaguars Lees meer
Thanks to all of our listeners who have written to us asking to hear more episodes. We thought this would be a good time to replay one of our favorite most loved shows. It’s about the mighty beaver. Spring is only a few weeks away (March 20) and it’s the time that beavers become more active, after laying low during the long winter. Spring is only a few weeks away and the beavers are getting busy with it for a summer ahead. I hope you're starting to feel it too.
So sit back and escape into nature with me as we step into the world of the beaver.

Escape to the sounds of nature
3 november 2020 · 7 min
We are all going through some challenging times, a pandemic, for Americans, an election whirlwind...or maybe other things in life. So, we wanted to give you a break, a chance to step away from the stress and into the wild. On this special episode of THE WILD we listen to a dawn chorus in Eastern Washington and ravens off the fog drenched shores of the Oregon coast. Lees meer
These sounds were recorded by Gordon Hempton the Sound Tracker and co-founder of Quiet Parks International.

The Great British Birding Show
6 oktober 2020 · 33 min
Kick back for a spot of British birdwatching as I head into the English countryside with twitcher Lee Evans. Lee is an extreme birder and he’s become notorious in a nation of bird-lovers, as the man who’ll go to any lengths to fulfill his bird obsession. Lees meer
Lee has driven 2.2 million miles around the UK and Ireland looking for birds. So far he’s seen 594 different species, but not without some mishaps. I join him for a day in the field to hear more, and to tap into the mind of a really fascinating and knowledgeable man. Enjoy!

The wolf ranger
16 juni 2020 · 32 min
There is probably no other species in North America that elicits more division than wolves. The sides usually come down to ranchers who fear for their cattle, and environmentalists who fear the extinction of an animal they value and see as critical to the balance of nature. Lees meer
Wolves reveal the bigger picture of the relationship between humans and the wild, and indeed the relationship between humans from different walks of life.
In this episode, I saddle up, take to the hills of eastern Washington state, and meet a man who left his city life behind to protect the wolves he loves.
Daniel's work as a range rider is supported by Conservation Northwest and the Northeast Washington Wolf Cattle Collaborative (NEWWCC).
THE WILD is a production of KUOW in Seattle in partnership with Chris Morgan and The UPROAR Fund. It is produced by Matt Martin and edited by Jim Gates. It is hosted, produced and written by Chris Morgan. Fact checking by Apryle Craig. Our theme music is by Michael Parker.
