BONUS: Puffins! from Good Nature with Megan Leslie

If you like This Is Wild, you might like WWF-Canada's new podcast, Good Nature with Megan Leslie. On this episode, Megan sits down with science communicator Jill Taylor to talk all things puffins! You can keep up with future episodes of Good Nature on Youtube, Instagram, or wherever you get your podcasts. To stay up to date on what’s going on at WWF-Canada, sign up for Living Planet News: https://wwf.ca/signup-for-living-planet-news/ [https://wwf.ca/signup-for-living-planet-news/] Jill Taylor is a Halifax-based biologist who researches the social behaviour of Atlantic puffins. Beyond her research, Jill has built a massive online following, sharing the beauty of Atlantic ecosystems, her love of scuba diving, and (of course) plenty of puffin antics. Jill and Megan get into the surprisingly complex world of Atlantic puffins: what makes them so distinctive, how they navigate life at sea and on land, and why scientists once believed they were actually two completely different birds. Plus, Jill recounts her adventures diving in the Atlantic and Megan discovers a new passion for sea slugs. But first, Megan checks in with WWF-Canada’s resident botanist Ryan Godfrey to talk about why coyotes actually belong in cities.

BONUS: Introducing Good Nature with Megan Leslie

While we work hard on season 2 of This Is Wild, we’re bringing you some special bonus content: the first episode of Good Nature with Megan Leslie, a new podcast from WWF-Canada. You can keep up with future episodes on Youtube, Instagram, or wherever you get your podcasts. To stay up to date on what’s going on at WWF-Canada, sign up for Living Planet News: https://wwf.ca/signup-for-living-planet-news/ [https://wwf.ca/signup-for-living-planet-news/] Nature is in need right now. More than ever. But who is answering the call? Good people, that’s who. And there are more of them than you might think. That’s why Megan Leslie, WWF‑Canada’s president and CEO, is chatting with folks who are proving that hope for nature isn’t just alive — it’s thriving. On this podcast, Megan celebrates both the good we find in nature and the good‑natured people working to protect it, proving that real change is not only possible, it’s already happening.  In the first episode of Good Nature, Megan sits down with Andy Ridley, the co‑founder of Earth Hour, just as the global movement marks its 20th anniversary. Andy reflects on how a simple idea — turning off the lights for one hour — sparked a worldwide expression of collective action. The conversation traces the evolution of the environmental movement over the past two decades and explores what Andy is working on now: protecting coral reefs by empowering everyday people to help monitor and restore them. From Earth Hour’s origins in Sydney Harbour to its little-known Toronto connection and eventual global ignition, this episode is a hopeful look at how creativity and shared purpose can help turn concern into action. Megan is also joined on this episode by WWF-Canada’s resident botanist, Ryan Godfrey, who answers her call on the orca phone to tell her something good about the weeds in your garden.

episode Barren-ground caribou artwork

Barren-ground caribou

For generations, caribou have been at the heart of Inuit life. But in recent years, new infrastructure in the Canadian Arctic has started to block their migratory paths — and threaten a way of life that has lasted for millennia.  In this episode of This Is Wild, we’ll learn all about how caribou herds navigate the vast tundra, and how Inuit communities are working to protect the animals they rely on. From Inuit knowledge passed down through generations to the modern pressures of industry, we’ll uncover the delicate balance between people, animals and a rapidly changing landscape. To learn more about barren-ground caribou, you can go to www.wwf.ca/thisiswild.  If you have any questions or suggestions for the show, you can email us at thisiswild@wwfcanada.org.

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.
