Customer Reviews
Fascinating discussions on conservation!
On a recent road trip I decided to try one of Shepherd’s of the Wild Podcast. Even though I originally planned on listening to only one, I ended up binge-listening to four of them in a row. It made my drive go by so fast while I learning so much fascinating stuff about conservation.....all while being thoroughly entertained. Definitely give them a try. I know what podcasts I’m going to be listening to on my walks from now on. Great job and thanks for sharing knowledge.
Love this podcast
