Episode Description from the Publisher

After disappearing from the prairie due to human settlement, black-footed ferrets were believed lost forever—until they were rediscovered in the 1980s. Now, conservationists like Travis Livieri are helping these tiny hunters return home by breeding them in captivity and rewilding the prairie. Guest: Travis Livieri, Founder and Executive Director of Prairie Wildlife Research Justin Churn, Deputy Recovery Program Coordinator at the National Black-Footed Ferret Conservation Center Link to S6 printable: https://www.byuradio.org/blog-post/4dd1c171-357a-4fc7-8085-0473e1d0de69/track-fun-facts-from-season-6
