Episode Details

Sentinel Site Manager Ryan Ferrell joins us for a conservation conversation (say that three times fast!) about the practice of hunting, its management for ecological sustainability, and its relationship to conservation. As a lifelong hunter and professional field scientist, Ryan’s understanding of the hunting community and the dynamics of local ecosystems provides unique insight into this topic.

Learn more about Ryan’s work monitoring soils and hydrology at Pepperwood in the November 2024 article, Consulting with the Soil: Nature’s Oracle.
