Flashback: The Dark Numbers Of Poaching In The U.S.
When one thinks of poaching, the mind often turns to Africa—snares, and people involved in the illegal bushmeat trade. Few would think of poaching occurring in the United States of America. Boone and Crockett Club President Tony Schoonen and researcher Jon Gassett join Robbie to talk about the Club’s new Poach and Pay program. This enormous undertaking to understand poaching in the U.S. revealed a massive “dark number” of poachers—and what that means for the landscapes and lifestyles we love. It’s an incredibly fascinating episode where you’ll learn the data and science behind the true impact of poaching in the U.S. today, what motivates it, and what steps can be taken to combat its staggering scale. This is the kind of podcast you’ll definitely be talking about with your colleagues around the water cooler—or the coffee pot—in the morning.

Discover how her background influences her advocacy and what solutions she proposes for wild horse management.

Roundup 178 | Behind the scenes at Splitting Image Taxidermy in South Africa: The Art, People, and Human Impact of Hunting.
In this episode, we go behind the scenes at Splitting Image Taxidermy in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, to uncover the people, craftsmanship, and livelihoods behind the taxidermy industry. Through conversations with the team, we explore the artistry involved, the opportunities created for local communities, and the family-like culture built around hard work and mentorship. More importantly, we challenge perceptions surrounding hunting and conservation, highlighting the human impact of the industry and the importance of understanding the full story before forming an opinion. Because championing the truth around hunting starts with the people and communities whose lives depend on it. Do you have questions we can answer?

Episode 678 - Iron Age Hunting in The Kruger National Park | Dr. Annie Antonites
Kruger Park is hiding a 1,000-year-old trade story—and the clues are in the bones. Archaeozoologist Dr. Annie Antonites reveals how animal remains, rare Persian Gulf ceramics, and isotope analysis are rewriting what we thought we knew about the people who lived along the Letaba River. From her office at the Ditsong National Museum of Natural History, Annie explains how archaeozoology works, why South Africa is an archaeological goldmine, and what bones can tell us about hunting, herd movement, seasonality, and ancient human-animal relationships.
