Into The Wilderness with Byron Pace
The world is so much more than what we know, and only through understanding it better can we make informed decisions. This podcast aims to bring impactful, entertaining and insightful conversations from a global array of guests. Some famous, some you won’t have heard of. From famous explorers, to renowned scientists and just good people, all have a story to tell which we can take something from. Topics are wide ranging, with a backbone centred on conservation, including hunting, fishing, expeditions, environmental and wildlife management. This is a podcast for everyone who enjoys the great outdoors in any form. It’s for those who care about safeguarding the planet and wildlife we share this land with.
Laura Zerra is most well known from the TV show Naked and Afraid, but there is so much more to who she is. From that the art of letter writing, to hand forging knives and leaving her own bloody footprints in the snow, I was enthused and captivated by Laura's stories and life. Dive in with me as we hear about her move from vegetarian to hunter, living with the seasons and grappling with the morality of nature.

Bill Roden is the Chief Marketing Officer for Modern Huntsman. We discuss the outdoors industry, how it interacts with the community and take a view on how this may evolve. We consider the difficulties of integrating people with nature and moments we have achieved pure contentment. To wrap up, Bill discusses great writers, and what we can learn from their processes in storytelling.
For the first show of 2021 we are joined by herpetologist and evolutionary biologist, Dr Mark Scherz. We dive into the reasons why naming species is important for conservation, the idea of taxonomic inflation, the problem with habitat fragmentation, the concept of ecosystem functionality and what the hell we mean by DNA barcoding. That's just for the warm-up.

In today’s episode, we discuss how to protect the great apes from succumbing to the current Sars Cov2 pandemic and what that means for how we support the local, often very poor communities in and around these populations of primates. To help me understand this I spoke with Dr Fabian Leendertz, head of the Leendertz Lab. His team specialises in researching sources and reservoirs of microorganisms with zoonotic potential, particularly in central Africa. This makes him the perfect person to shed light on the situation. I recorded this a few weeks back, but as I release this interview today there is news that some reserves are planning on re-opening, allowing tourism around great apes to start again. We will hear in this show what risk is associated with that.

I interview Peter Christie, author of Unnatural Companions: Rethinking our love of pets in an age of extinction. We get deep into the impact of our cats and dogs on the natural environment, the food they eat, what they kill and the spread of disease. From fungal diseases carried by salamanders to the impact of Burmese pythons in the everglades, we expand on the concept that pet ownership is in part our way of connecting to the wilderness modern society has shut out. The big, hanging question, which we do provide some potential solutions for, is how do we harness the love and care of pet owners to help conserve wildlife and mitigate the negative ecological impact of pet ownership.

My interview today is with Catherine E. Semcer, a research fellow at the Property and Environment Research Centre. Most of her work there focuses on rights and market-based solutions to policy challenges in environmental security, conservation finance and sustainability. This really is a deep dive into the cogs which make conservation work, and by cogs, I mean how we fund conservation. We look at the interplay between private and public land ownership, how these models work and the complexities of migration corridors cutting across different types of land use (an issue we are dealing with in deer management right now in the UK). We go on to discuss incentivizing conservation in the public good, and how important knowledge exchange is between countries. Towards the middle of the show we dig into the global wildlife trade and what we mean by that, and how harnessing regulated trade can help address social inequality and prevent viral spillovers into humans. We touch on carbon credits, clean water initiatives and the consequences of potential new regulations on wildlife products in California.

In this episode, I talk with Jess Johnston about the recent headlines seen around the world, highlighting the legislative changes in Alaska which would allow for the hunting of bear cubs and wolf pups in dens. This was obviously met by a widespread outcry against the move. However, as we always try to do on the podcast, I was keen to take a step back and really understand what had happened. The same day the news broke I called Jess to get more information, which sent her down a rabbit warren for an entire week. Normally I would cut these shows down and insert concise summaries, but Jess does such a great job, I have left the show as recorded: the full 30mins around the topic.
Jess is the Legislative Liaison and Advocacy Coordinator at Wyoming Wildlife Federation and also sits on the board for directors for 2% For Conservation. She is my go-to person for policy implications to wildlife in North America, and I am really pleased to have her back on the show.

This is an eye-opening discussion to the very heart of what makes conservation work. Dr Amy Dickman is a Caplan Senior Research Fellow at Felid Conservation in the Department of Zoology at Oxford University, as well as sitting on the IUCN Cat Specialist Group, so much of our chat centres around her work with big cats, but we dig deep into how conservation can be made sustainable in the long term, as well as the complexities of human-wildlife conflict, and the common insensitivity of conservation interactions with local communities. We talk about the importance of compassion and humanity in our efforts to conserve wild spaces, and the necessity to implement an international value to resources if we want to protect them. We finish up our chat talking about the famous picture of Amy holding her young child on stage at a National Geographic conference, and what challenges she faced being a woman in the conservation.

Welcome to ITW shorts, the first in a new series of short shows, diving into the world of wildlife science and conservation. We are escaping today, in our minds at least, to the coast of British Columbia, to the archipelago of Haida Gwaii. I pick up a story with Dr Jason Goldman, looking at the re-introduction of expatriated wild sea-otters, and the implications of their return on local communities and the eco-system.

With heated debate on the deer working group report, and a potential sweeping shift in how we manage the Scottish landscape for deer, I am joined by ecologist Dr Linzi Seivwright, who has worked closely with local deer management groups over a number of years. Discussion drifts to cover other projects she has worked on, as we talk about grouse population cycles, kinship theory, the climate emergency, woodland restoration, temporal displacement of populations, and the need to have a landscape-scale approach with regard to management. We also delve into a species of crow previously thought to be extinct, and the re-discovery of a lost population of deer on a remote island.
I speak with the only full-time gamekeeper in Northern Ireland, Alex Rodgers, about an ambitious project to restore a moorland to its historic, thriving state. Recent winners of the gold Purdey Award for conservation, Alex works for the Irish Grouse Conservation Trust, involved in an array of research with collaborating NGOs and scientists to determine the long term conservation of these upland areas in a way which protects the eco-system, and allows wildlife to thrive alongside humans.

Worldwide we see government decisions impacting on wildlife and habitat management in negative way, often driven by personal agendas and moral exceptions. We saw this with Tahr in New Zealand, and British Columbia with Grizzly Bears, both topics we have covered in in previous shows.

We hear here from Sue Evans, Director of the GWCT in Wales, to understand the history and reasons behind the recent decision. Importantly, we ask what the government is doing to replace the proven benefits of shooting in these areas.

Woodcock arouse a stirring emotion, probably more than any other on the game species list in the UK. So what is the reality of the population and what do we know? We as hunters have a responsibility to educate ourselves on the wild species we hunt to ensure an understanding of our impact.
