    Episode 623 - Leon Kachelhoffer || Unpacking The NG13 Elephant Issues

    Leon Kachelhoffer, the current operator in the NG13 elephant hunting block in northern Botswana joins Robbie to talk about what it’s like to operate in this hotspot. This episode was purposefully created so that we can unpack everything that has happened in the NG13 hunting block of Botswana. It has been a block that has made headlines news from 2022 when a big 100 pound elephant was taken there - ever since there has been a lo of anti hunting rhetoric, alongside issues of corruption, and more. We talked to Leon 2 weeks ago to get an idea of what is going on.

    Episode 621 - Stefan Rijnbeek || The Forestry Conundrum In Scotland

    This podcast is one of those that came out of left field. A connection from a past podcast guest, and an invitation to podcast about an industry that if you looked at from the outside looking in, in a place like Scotland, one may think it's an industry that is not compatible with wildlife and sustainable use conservation. Stefan Rijnbeek, an expert on forestry initiatives and how they’re tied intimately to conservation efforts in the UK, spends the better part of an hour schooling Robbie on the complexities of forestry in the UK and Scotland in particular. As a reminder the opinions of Stefan in this podcast are his own, they are not born from hard evidence, nor represent the stance, policy, or opinions of his employer.  This is a fascinating podcast that everyone should listen to...
