Defenders of the Wild

Conservationist Ivan Carter seeks solutions to create a balanced wildlife ecosystem; experts join Carter to spotlight the conservation efforts happening worldwide.

S2, EP10 "Seals: The Plastic Predicament"

Namibia is home to Africa's largest seal colonies due to the rich marine life; this abundance leads to competition with humans for resources; Ivan joins an NGO removing plastic from unlucky seals.

S2, EP3 "Africa's Painted Dogs"

Wild dogs are one of Africa's most endangered canines, likely with less than 6000 remaining in the wild; Ivan engages with a specialist team to participate in an initiative growing their home range.

S2, EP11 "Vervet Monkeys: Urban Pests"

In many areas of urban Africa, troops of primates become a severe nuisance; Ivan engages with wildlife managers to explore the realities of this problem and ways to live with these cute pests.

Vultures are vital to ecosystems, yet their numbers have been plummeting; Ivan heads into an African medicine market where vulture parts are traded and joins research efforts to protect the species.

White-tailed deer are synonymous with America, yet few know what's required to manage its population; Ivan joins the team in South Dakota to collar whitetail deer to study their survival rates.

S1, EP12 "Game Capture: Snares & Tactics"

Since some African countries allow for private ownership of wildlife, this generated an industry of trade that hoped to rejuvenate the fauna of the land; the team uses unique high-stakes methods to capture various species.

Research has informed biologists about how to protect bear species, but gathering the data requires collaring them; biologists must crawl into their dens during hibernation and dart them, then apply collars.

S1, EP10 "Elephants & Humans Sharing Spaces"

Human-wildlife conflict is prevalent across Africa, so to mitigate conflicts, Ivan joins Roger Whittall to collar bull elephants to create an early warning system for surrounding communities.
