    Episode 605 - Wicus Diedericks || Rhino Horn Trade Back On After 50 Years?

    Wicus Diedericks, owner of Rockwood Conservation, dropped a bomb on the rhino conservation world on Friday, when a court ruled that he can trade in rhino horn (devil is in the details). It’s not quite that simple, but the ruling stated that the CITES exemption for conservation-bred rhinos is part of South African law - i.e., he should legally be able to get an export permit for horns that have been dehorned from his herd. This is huge news for rhino conservation and potentially the legal mechanism by which rhino horn can be purchased by the east and the Middle East. This is absolutely breaking news, with this court decision occurring last Friday. We do not know the extent of the implications of the court ruling, we do know the MEC of the Northern Cape has 7 days to respond to the issuance of the export permit. We also know that in 2 1/2 weeks CITES COP starts in Uzbekistan and this will be the talk of the town there!

    Episode 603 - Tony Schoonen || The Dark Numbers Of Poaching In The US

    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.

    Leon & Sanjay || Eat Wild In The UK

    The beauty of The Origins Foundation podcast is that you have no idea who we are going to speak with or what topic we’ll be exploring. If you look around the world at the hunting community and how we try to communicate that lifestyle to those who don’t hunt, a simple message that resonates is one around food. From the Australian outback to the woods of Mississippi to the inner city of London in the United Kingdom, food is a powerful messaging tool. Robbie is joined by UK chefs and members of the Eat Wild UK scene, Leon Challis-Davies and Sanjay Bhattacharya, to talk about the burgeoning wild game scene in the UK and some amazing recipes and resources that Eat Wild UK is providing for people to enjoy. This isn’t your typical dove popper cuisine, but rather high-end dishes that will make your taste buds salivate just hearing about them.

    Ted Koch || Grasslands - Our Most Endangered Habitat

    When you think of wildlife and biodiversity conservation in this world, the most fundamental element of wildlife conservation is habitat. In North America, the most imperiled habitat ecosystem we have is grasslands. Ted Koch, the Executive Director of the North American Grouse Partnership, joins Robbie to discuss grouse, grasslands, the Great Prairie Chicken, and how we can protect this critical type of habitat that is dwindling away here in America. It’s an insightful look into something you may not know much about, and as such, you can arm yourself with information.

  7. Solutions For Madikwe?

    16 OCT

    Solutions For Madikwe?

    You have seen lots of recent discussions, talking heads, and articles about Madikwe, a nature reserve in the North West Province of South Africa, and its elephant dilemma. The Origins Foundation is firmly positioned to talk and deliver an understanding of the system from a practical conservation perspective. Robbie was forwarded a podcast radio spot in which a non-hunting economics professor was asked to bring his ecological perspectives to bear on the Madikwe situation. The interview was very biased and unfortunately didn’t have a voice from the sustainable use lobby, so we decided to bring our own voice to the table. Robbie reacts in this special episode to the radio/podcast interview titled “An Atrocity Planned in Madikwe.” Robbie plays the podcast for you and gives you an unscripted response to what he is hearing and gives his opinion on this Madikwe controversy.

    Corina Jordan || Protecting Game In New Zealand

    Robbie connects with Corina Jordan, the new CEO of the Game Animal Council of New Zealand—a statutory authority that provides advice to the Minister of Hunting and Fishing in New Zealand (currently the Honorable James Meager, who was a recent guest on the show as well)—to talk about herds of special interest and other exciting developments in New Zealand hunting. New Zealand is an incredible hunting landscape, facing many of the same issues as other hunting communities, but also holding unique opportunities to truly cement a hunting legacy—from the Sika to the Wapiti herd—and to establish the critical management plans needed for the future.
