| 9/2/26 |  Fur and Feathers || Truth About Fur Podcast || Ep. 19 | In this episode, Mark and Doug talk with Jason Lupardus, CEO of Turkeys for Tomorrow about the connection between trapping, predator management, and wild turkey conservation. Jason shares why turkey populations are declining in parts of North America, how predators like bobcats and raccoons affect nest success, and why habitat work alone may not be enough. The conversation also explores the role of trappers in helping restore balance on the landscape and why hunters and trappers need to work together to support sustainable wildlife management.

| 9/1/26 |  The State of Thinhorn Sheep || HC Podcast || Ep. 173 | North America's thinhorn sheep are in the middle of a quiet but crucial conservation story and the stakes reach far beyond the mountains. Bill Jex, Thinhorn Sheep Program Lead for the Wild Sheep Foundation, breaks down what is really happening across Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, British Columbia, and the tiny places where these animals exist nowhere else on earth. From climate-driven population swings and rain-on-snow icing events to disease surveillance, predator pressure, and the future of sustainable harvest, this conversation gets into the details that matter if you care about sheep, wild country, or the future of North American wild sheep conservation.

| 8/10/26 |  The Month The Grizzlies Returned || Rural Range Podcast || Ep. 3 | A Southern Alberta rancher went from the occasional grizzly loss over a decade to eight cattle killed in a month, a charged encounter on his own land, and neighbors seeing the same devastation. Mark talks with rancher Isaak Bustard for a raw, firsthand look at what conflict really feels like when it hits a working operation. Isaak explains how the attacks unfolded, why carcasses were so hard to find, and what happens when a bear keeps returning to the same fields. He breaks down the impact on his third generation ranch, what the kill sites revealed, and why this year feels completely out of character. Isaak also gets candid about range riding, electric fencing, shifting bear behavior, and trying to protect livestock while still respecting the landscape. Learn more about your ad choices.
