Episode 274 - Ryan Dalton || A Non-Hunter Confronts Trophy Hunting
You could consider him somewhat of an ‘anti-hunter’. Hailing from a wildlife and zoology background, Ryan Dalton is a UK comedian who has never hunted before. During the COVID Pandemic, Ryan started the Into The Wild podcast, which explores topics around nature and wildlife conservation. As a result of that experience, he very quickly got into and began to explore the idea of trophy hunting, conservation, and hunting as a tool for conservation. In this podcast he recounts with Robbie his trip to Namibia to speak with people on the ground about their experiences, their thoughts, and what hunting is doing for them.See more from Blood Origins: https://bit.ly/BloodOrigins_SubscribeMusic: Migration by Ian Post (Winter Solstice), licensed through artlist.ioPodcast is brought to you by:Bushnell: https://www.bushnell.com Learn more about your ad choices.
