    When Murray “The Mad Sculptor” Grant takes off his hat and gets excited, his mane of exuberant white hair comes out and he looks a little like Albert Einstein. Murray is essentally a mad scientist built into a sculptor. Murrray invited Robbie to his studio on the family conservancy in Lakipia County, Kenya, where he creates his world famous bronzes, to talk about wildlife conservation from the eyes of an artist obsessed with recreating the beauty he sees in the world.  Get to know the guest: https://murraygrantbronzes.com/ Do you have questions we can answer?

After a previous episode discussing their landmark case allowing them to export Rhino Horn (a key conservation tool in his tool belt) and the episode earlier this week recorded on location at his facility and touring the incredible work he does for Rhinos - Robbie has Wicus back on to discuss the current state of play now that the government has taken the next step, with the high court of appeals dismissing permission to leave. With the government now out, Wicus explains the state of the union for this court case and where we are with it, the biggest trade conversation since crocodiles were removed from Appendix 1 to Appendix 2.

    Episode 654 - Wicus Diedericks || The Toll Of Rhino Conservation

    Rhino conservation in South Africa is not for everyone. It's fraught with security liabilities, risks, and poaching concerns, all in an environment that is devaluing Rhinos. Wicus Diedericks, owner of one of only 2 or 3 white rhino conservation breeding facilities in South Africa, invited Robbie to Rockwood to see the scale of the operation. Wicus has been in a legal fight with the South African government about the trade of legal Rhino Horn. If you want to listen to the first podcast in this series check out episode 605 . Today Wicus and Robbie sit down at Rockwood, on the ground at his facility. From feed to camera to security infrastructure, one thing is clear: these people care about Rhinos deeply.  Get to know the guest: https://rockwoodconservation.com Do you have questions we can answer?

    Episode 653 - National Geographic Came Knocking

    Yesterday we had a HUGE news story break. We have been keeping it quite a secret for over 2 months now, that we have our first set of cubs out of our Panyame Cheetah Project. However, even though having cubs is the most amazing news story ever, we are just as excited to announce that the entire Panyame Cheetah Project has been picked up by National Geographic and an article has been written about our work. If you had asked Robbie at the beginning of this project and the short life of The Origins Foundation what a goal would have been - it would have been to be featured in National Geographic. Well we have done it, in a short 6 year span as a non-profit. Get to know the guest: https://www.backcountryafrica.com  Do you have questions we can answer?
