Join Jeff Corwin as he explores critical conservation challenges facing amazing mammals. He travels to New England to help care for orphaned black bear cubs, learning about their unique behaviors and threats from pollution and habitat loss. At the Kilham Bear Center, Corwin assists in preparing cubs like Flower and Dover for release, a process involving sedation, health checks, and ear tagging to ensure their wild future.

Corwin also visits Florida to meet orphaned baby manatees, understanding habitat threats and rescue efforts. He aids veterinarians in healing injured opossums for their return to nature. This journey underscores that nearly a quarter of all mammals face extinction, emphasizing the urgent need for conservation to protect the remaining wild species.

Climate change intensifies extreme weather risks, requiring businesses and communities to understand potential damages and lost revenues. Quantifying the cost of inaction is vital. Colorado's Future Avoided Cost Explorer (FACE:Hazards) helps determine the financial impact of future events, making a strong case for resilience investments. This enables data-driven decisions, saving money and preventing hardships.

Ryan Spies, a Water Resources Scientist with Lynker, LLC, specializes in hydro-data analysis and climate-informed impact assessments. He led a pioneering Colorado project quantifying economic impacts from future climate and population growth, translating complex data into actionable community information.
