Episode 684 - A Citizens Perspective on Kruger Elephants | Mark Bishop
A candid conversation about the difficult choices facing Kruger National Parks wildlife and landscapes. Mark Bishop joins Robbie Kroger to discuss elephant impacts on trees and habitats, the limits of current management options, and why tourism’s silence may matter for conservation’s future. Tourism is part of the conversation too. Kruger’s wildlife and scenery are central to the visitor experience, yet the episode asks whether the industry has been sufficiently open about elephant impacts—and whether visitor expectations could influence how the issue is addressed.

Episode 683 - What is Wild Food? | Heidi Savage
Wild Food should be one of Britain’s most natural choices—but getting it from the field to the family table is far more complicated than it seems. Robbie Kroger talks with Heidi Savage, Head of Wild Food at the British Association for Shooting and Conservation (BASC), about the promise and the challenges of making game a regular part of the UK food system. Heidi grew up in a gamekeeping family, where knowing where food came from wasn’t a trend—it was simply part of daily life. Now, through her work with BASC and Eat Game, she’s helping more people reconnect with that story.

Episode 682 - The Harsh Truth of Tourism | Sean de la Harpe Parker
Wildlife safaris are turning into circus acts—and animal behaviour specialist Sean de la Harpe Parker explains how overtourism, social media, and the chase for close-up sightings can put wildlife at risk. In conversation with Robbie Kroger, Sean shares why ethical guiding starts with slowing down, respecting animals’ behaviour, and letting go of the “checkbox” safari. A thought-provoking episode about the role guests, guides, and the tourism industry can play in protecting the wild.

Episode 681 - From The Field - Beyond The Classroom
The best part of what occurs at The Origins Foundation is being able to build projects that have intangible benefits to people. Intangibles are things you cannot buy - i.e., happiness, joy, and hope. One of the best projects that can really make an impact on these intangibles is sport, specifically the beautiful game- soccer. On today's From the Field, join Robbie in the Eastern Cape of South Africa at Baroda School for the grand opening of their soccer field. None of this would have been possible without Carl Van Zyl and his team at John X Safaris as well as the folks from GunWerks. We are extremely grateful to have been part of this special day and it is times like these that remind us why we do what we do. Enjoy this experience with us, it's one to remember!
