We have the privilege of speaking with Dominique Goncalves, a true trailblazer in the world of elephant research and human-wildlife conflict resolution. Dominique has dedicated her career to understanding the intricate behavior and ecology of these magnificent creatures, with a particular focus on how elephants and humans can coexist harmoniously. Her work is based at the remarkable Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique, a place that has undergone a miraculous regeneration from the ashes of war and devastation. What was once a decimated wilderness has been restored to its former glory, teeming with life and biodiversity, thanks to an incredible community-driven conservation effort. Dominique's research provides invaluable insights into elephant dynamics, their complex social structures, and the challenges they face in an ever-shrinking habitat. By understanding their needs and behaviors, she is helping to develop strategies to mitigate human-elephant conflicts, which have become increasingly common as human populations encroach on traditional elephant ranges. But Gorongosa's success story goes beyond just wildlife preservation. It is a testament to the power of involving local communities and providing them with education, employment, and a sense of ownership over their natural heritage. The park's various programs, including those focused on empowering young women, have been instrumental in fostering a new generation of environmental stewards. In our conversation, Dominique will share her fascinating experiences studying elephant behavior up close, the obstacles she has faced in her work, and the innovative solutions being implemented to ensure a harmonious coexistence between humans and these majestic creatures. We'll also explore the incredible journey of Gorongosa National Park, from its darkest days to its current status as a beacon of hope for conservation and community-based initiatives. Get ready to be inspired by the remarkable story of Dominique Goncalves and the incredible revival of Gorongosa, a true testament to the power of perseverance, knowledge, and community engagement in protecting our planet's natural wonders.

In this conversation, we will delve into the depths of what it truly means to be human, fostering a harmonious coexistence with wildlife, and contemplating the future trajectory of human life on our beloved planet Earth. " P22, the majestic mountain lion who captured the hearts of many, passed away recently. He was an iconic symbol of urban wildlife and a beloved resident of the Santa Monica Mountains. P22's story touched people around the world, highlighting the challenges faced by wildlife in fragmented habitats. Despite his struggles, P22 became a beacon of hope, proving that wild animals can coexist with humans in urban landscapes. His journey, from the remote wilderness to the heart of Los Angeles, inspired conservation efforts and raised awareness about the importance of preserving natural corridors for wildlife. P22 faced numerous obstacles during his time in the city, including navigating busy freeways and adapting to an urban diet. Despite these challenges, he managed to survive and thrive, becoming a symbol of resilience and adaptability. His story sparked conversations about the need to protect and connect open spaces, enabling animals like P22 to roam freely and maintain healthy populations. He reminded us that our actions have consequences for the natural world and that it is our responsibility to ensure a future where wildlife can flourish. P22's passing is a reminder of the urgent need to prioritize conservation efforts and create sustainable solutions for wildlife. His legacy will continue to inspire generations to come, as we strive to protect and preserve the precious biodiversity of our planet. In memory of P22, let us work together to build a future where wild creatures can roam without boundaries and where the beauty and wonder of nature can be cherished by all.

We are rebroadcasting one of our most listened to and enjoyed episodes... A conversation with Nick Brandt | photographer The themes in Nick Brandt’s photographic series always relate to the destructive impact that humankind is having on both the natural world and now humans themselves too. Nearly twenty years ago Nick Brandt started photographing the wild animals of Africa as an elegy to a dis-appearing world. After some years, seeing the escalating environmental destruction, he felt an urgent need to move away from that kind of work and address the destruction in a much more direct way. This led to the series, Inherit the Dust (2016) and This Empty World (2019). These were mainly about habitat loss and biodiversity loss, significantly as a result of human ex-pansion and development. Nick established a style of portrait photography of animals in the wild similar to that of the photography of humans in studio setting, shot on medium format film, attempting to portray animals as sentient creatures not so different from us. Nick’s "The Day May Break" (2021) series is the first part of a global series portraying people & animals impacted by environmental destruction. Photographed in Zimbabwe and Kenya, the people in the photos have all been badly affected by climate change - displaced by cyclones that destroyed their homes, displaced & impoverished after years-long severe droughts. The photos were taken at 5 sanctuaries/ conservancies. The animals are almost all long-term rescues, due to everything from poaching of their parents to habitat destruction & poisoning. These animals can never be released back into the wild. Now habituated, it was therefore safe for strangers to be photographed close to the animals in the same frame. Nick has had solo gallery and museum shows around the world, including New York, London, Berlin, Stockholm, Paris and Los Angeles. All of the series are published in book form. In descending order, Nick says the images are best viewed in a gallery, in the book or online full screen on your computer at the very least on your phone. You can discovery his work on his website www.nickbrandt.com Nick is also the co-founder of Big Life Foundation, a non-profit in Kenya/ Tanzania, established 2010. They employ more than 300 local rangers protecting 1.6 million acres of the Amboseli / Kilimanjaro ecosystem. We caught up with Nick at his home in California and if you want to know what word he would add to the dictionary... it rhymes with "schmuck" followed by wit.

“To restore stability to our planet, we must restore its biodiversity, the very thing that we’ve removed. It’s the only way out of this crisis we’ve created – we must rewild the world.’ – David Attenborough The broad C’s of rewilding – Cores, Corridors and Carnivores – largely encapsulate the conservation rationale behind most large scale rewilding endeavours whose grander aim is to increase biodiversity, reverse extinction trends in several species, and revive ecological machinery to mitigate climate change. This includes identifying and demarcating a large core (inviolate of humans) region in need of ecological restoration and allowing regeneration of degraded and imbalanced ecosystems. For smooth movement of animals such as wide ranging large carnivores and genetic flow between animal populations, ensuring healthy connectivity between such core areas and other wilderness areas is crucial. Wildlife corridors connecting two or more cores need to be restored with the help of local communities, preserved, and protected. Carnivores represent the apex predators within ecosystems whose presence and reintroduction within a landscape enables ecosystem revival. Natural ecosystems by nature are self-regulating and self-sustaining. But, impact of human actions have rendered large swathes of natural habitats dilapidated, destroyed and wounded. Wildlife populations the world over have witnessed a staggering 60% or more decline in just the last 40-50 years. We have essentially fractured the carbon absorbing sinks such as oceans and forests, and are now reeling under the impact of man-made climate change further compounded by continued and relentless carbon emissions. Only restoration of such ecosystems on the land and in the seas will keep all dominoes from falling, and ecosystem functions from collapsing.(Wildlife Conservation Trust) For this series " Cores, Corridors, Carnivores" we will start with exploring the impact that the famous mountain lion P22 had in Los Angeles, California (and the world!) and the construction of the worlds largest wildlife crossing in the world to date, The Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing. In an effort to get You involved we invite you to become a citizen scientist! yes, You. We invite you to download the community powered App " iNaturalists " and become deeply familiar with the natural world around you and join us in an ecosystem revival!
