Pull the Thread: The Wild Life

Podcast af Luminary | DreamCrew Entertainment

In the corrupt and deadly world of the illegal wildlife trade, criminals are responsible for the wholesale slaughter of animals, and the suffering of people, too. Justice is rarely found. Undeterred, one man set out to bring down one of the biggest wildlife trafficking syndicates on the African continent. His name is Wolf. And he’s a spy. Investigative journalist Runako Celina takes us through the bizarre and far-reaching web of the global illegal wildlife trade and those trying to dismantle it. From Luminary, Drake's DreamCrew Entertainment, Novel, and Thread Studios, this is Pull The Thread, Season 1: The Wild Life.

Whack-a-Mole

After seeing the transnational operation play out, Runako and team profile the local efforts of a Ugandan Wildlife Crime unit–all in the quest to understand why this trade remains so difficult to stop. Then it’s into the jungle to witness mountain gorillas who continue to survive and flourish. Has the team found a silver bullet, or simply dug through a can of worms?

Takedown

Wolf and team move closer to arresting their targets Mansour Surur, Amara Cherif, and Moazu Kromah. With stakes high, authorities strategize about how to put these traffickers in handcuffs–as all three men are based in different African countries. Working quickly and stealthily, will the arrests ensue or give the criminals a chance to disappear for good?

Grab the Bullsh*t by the Horns

It’s 2018, Wolf has forked out big bucks from government coffers to buy contraband from the syndicate, yet no rhino horn appears. While anxiously waiting he realizes his manipulation skills may be the only way the traffickers will finally deliver. Wolf, Runako learns, is constantly working to balance espionage and fatherhood, and she sees the toll this kind of work takes on his family.

Brady Bunch, with Fangs

Runako’s producer Saskia visits Hamm, West Germany, site of the world's largest herpetology fair to uncover what types of people buy, or sometimes smuggle, animals and animal products–and why they do it. Whether seeking exotic pets, aphrodisiacs, or hangover cures, the global demand for animal parts persists, as do the shady legal loopholes that allow the trade to flourish.

Incorruptible

Some compare illegal wildlife trafficking to a war. On the front line are the poachers and the game rangers. Syndicates often rely on the corruptibility of these poorly-paid rangers to be information providers and protectors. Anton Mzimba, a guardian of rhinos and other big game in South Africa, refused to be one of them.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
