Dr. Jason Ransom is the wildlife program supervisor with the North Cascades National Park Service and adjunct professor at Washington State University School of the environment. He has a PhD and MSC in ecology from Colorado State University, and has traveled the world working with large carnivores.
In this episode, we discuss feeling the edge of being when in the field with critters who can eat you, why reintroduce grizzly bears into the North Cascade Mountains at all, hearing out people who don't agree with the course of action, building safeguards ahead of time for interaction between predators, human beings, and their livestock, the importance of traditional wisdom from indigenous stewards watching recovery bloom, and more.
