John Mohawk — Survive and Thrive
In an expansive tour of human civilization leading to today's climate crisis, the late Native American scholar John Mohawk explored the interrelationship of climate change and human evolution. For most of our history as hunter-gatherers and farmers, we retained an intimate knowledge of the natural world that supported us, especially plants. That knowledge, he observed, is being lost at radical rates today. Mohawk’s insights about the "Native American pragmatism" that successfully balanced the practical with the spiritual for thousands of years are critical to re-establishing our intimacy and kinship with the plant world and key to surviving dramatic climatic changes.

Colorado Welcomes Five New Wolves
GOOD NEWS🎉: On Dec. 18, 2023, Colorado Parks and Wildlife experts released five gray wolves — three males and two females — onto public land in Grand County in a historic effort to reestablish a healthy population in the state. Yesterday's release fulfills the wish of Colorado voters who, in 2020, voted in favor of reintroducing wolves in the state. This year Colorado Parks and Wildlife finalized a wolf restoration and management plan. Under the plan, the state agency will release up to 10 more wolves by mid-March 2024 and 30 to 50 wolves over the next three to five years. These first five wolves were captured from Oregon, evaluated by veterinarians and biologists, collared with GPS satellite collar for tracking and relocated to Colorado. 📹 by Colorado Parks & Wildlife ------------ About the Center: The Center for Biological Diversity is a 501c3 nonprofit headquartered in Tucson, Arizona.

Wildlife Nation Exclusive Clip: The Great Plains
Join host Jeff Corwin on an epic adventure across the Great Plains of the United States on a mission to understand the connection between the incredible species that call it home. First, Jeff travels to the Canadian border to help Native American tribes re-establish bison across tribal lands. Jeff learns how ancient bison herds once shaped the Great Plains and how modern conservationists are fighting to bring those herds back. Later, Jeff works with biologists to manage a delicate population of black-footed ferrets, a species once believed to be extinct. Jeff discovers how wild bison play a vital role in ferret survival and the survival of the Great Plains themselves. Video transcript: Jeff Corwin: Welcome to Northeast Montana, home of the Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes of the Fort Peck Indian community. I'm with Jonathan Proctor, from Defenders of Wildlife. It's now about minus nine. Look at our backdrop, we've got American bison. John, they are forever interconnected to this ecosystem. Jonathan Proctor: Yes, this is one of the most important keystone species in the entire Great Plains. This species had an outsized importance, numerous impacts on the environment that benefited a whole host of other wildlife. Jeff Corwin: The bison behind us are descendants of a great and ancient herd, over 30 million animals that moved like a living wave across North America. But this species was nearly wiped out with the western expansion of America and industrial hunting. The deliberate mass slaughter of bison was devastating to the Great Plains, and especially to the native tribes that depended upon them as a food and cultural resource. Tragically, at the start of the 20th century, fewer than 1000 American bison were left alive. Jonathan Proctor: The loss of the bison historically, about a hundred years ago, had ripple effects throughout the entire Great Plains. All of the predators and scavengers that depended on the bison for food disappeared as a result. Bison graze down the grass, which benefit prairie dogs, and so many other species depend on prairie dogs. So when the bison were removed, the whole system unraveled. Jeff Corwin: So, the big challenge we face is to reintegrate them into the ecosystem because this environment, the prairie needs the bison. Jonathan Proctor: To achieve that goal, we need to restore at least 10 large bison herds back to the Great Plains. When we get to that level, we will have truly saved the bison and the environment that it once evolved in and helped create. Jeff Corwin: Leading the charge is the Intertribal Buffalo Council, a group of 76 native tribal communities working to establish new and wild bison herds across the Great Plains. This morning, Robbie Magnan and his team are moving 56 bison from Montana to their new home in Oklahoma. Robbie, for the many tribal communities, bison are so very important, even today. Robbie Magnan: Yes, that's very much so. They're helping us restore our culture, because they've always been part of our culture. And now, we have our opportunity to reconnect with them and restore our culture with them. Jeff Corwin: But here's the thing, we can't get these bison to Oklahoma until we corral them, and that my friends, is going to be a challenge. You ready to do this? Robbie Magnan: Yeah. Jeff Corwin: All right, let's go. Speaker 4: All right, look sharp, stay together. Jeff Corwin: So, what is the plan, Robbie? Robbie Magnan: The buffalo are in a temporary holding pen that we have to round them up. Sometimes it's not so easy. Follow me! Jeff Corwin: Woo, hold on. So you can kind of see what we're trying to do, right here. It's a little bit of chaos, organized chaos. And what we're trying to do is move them into the corral, make sure they're healthy, and then share them with another Native American community. Ooh. Robbie Magnan: You okay? Jeff Corwin: Yeah. Ooh, rock. Rock. Robbie Magnan: Take what you got. Take what you got, guys. Take what you got! Speaker 5: Here they come. Jeff Corwin: Okay, so we didn't get the whole herd, but we've got about half the herd, right here. We're moving them down this quarter and into the corral they go. Robbie, who do I invoice my chiropractor bill to? Now that we've got almost half the herd into the pen, Robbie guides them into a series of smaller quarters. Here, they can be individually identified and have their final health checks before their trip to Oklahoma. Robbie Magnan: Okay, get in there. Jeff Corwin: All right, all right, there we go. We've hit our character limit. Leave a comment for the rest of the transcript.

Wildlife Nation Exclusive Clip: Saving Sea Turtles
Join host Jeff Corwin on an adventure to the beaches of southern Florida to uncover the challenges facing sea turtles locally and around the world. Working with dedicated conservationists, including Defenders of Wildlife staff, Jeff helps a team of biologists care for sick and injured turtles that are ready to return to the ocean. To learn more about the wildlife featured in the episode, visit www.defenders.org/wildlifenation Video Transcript: Jeff Corwin: So friends, my mentor, Dr. John Jahoda from Bridgewater State University, once told me, "If you ever have a job Jeff, have a job you love." And this reminds me why  I love my job. It's moments like this through the heartache, through the trials, you get that moment of triumph. And I imagine for you, Elizabeth, this is pretty special. Elizabeth Fleming: This is awesome. Jeff Corwin: This is why we all do what we do. Elizabeth Fleming: This is phenomenal. Jeff Corwin: What do you think, Whitney? You think these turtles are hankering to get back in the ocean? Whitney Crowder: I think they are ready to go home. Jeff Corwin: Are you ready? Elizabeth? Elizabeth Fleming: I'm ready. Speaker 4: Here? Elizabeth Fleming: Uh-oh. She's- Jeff Corwin: You got it good? Speaker 4: You're good. Elizabeth Fleming:  I'm going to cry. I'm just glad, to be this big she's really had to withstand so many things. Speaker 4: She sure has. The odds were not in her favor to get this big at all. Elizabeth Fleming: I'm so glad to see this animal get back to the ocean. Jeff Corwin: Now it's our turn. We get to do this. Whitney Crowder: We do. Jeff Corwin: Whitney does it ever get old? Whitney Crowder: It never gets old.  It's honestly just a feeling of pride to be able  to release these turtles back out to the ocean. Jeff Corwin: The loggerhead doesn't go into the surf alone she travels with incredible state of the art technology. So we will be her electronic guardian angel for many months to come. Whitney Crowder: Hopefully. Jeff Corwin: All right, shall we do this? Whitney Crowder: We shall. Jeff Corwin: All right. Whitney Crowder: All right. You ready? Jeff Corwin: Yep. That was awesome. Thanks Whitney. Whitney Crowder: Thank you. Jeff Corwin: Remember, conservation takes action. Volunteer in your community. Enjoy your local environment and defend wildlife the best way you can.
