This is a story about the life and death of a young grizzly bear in the Broughton Archipelago, British Columbia’s largest marine park. During one of the most impactful global events in recent history, a physically-distanced world saw a joint effort by First Nations, the Grizzly Bear Foundation and the provincial government to save a wayward male grizzly: Mali. Mike Willie of the Kwikwasutinuxw/Haxwa’mis First Nation and owner/lead guide of Sea Wolf Adventures considers how Indigenous governance can lead to more effective conservation and strengthen our connection to each other and to the natural world.

It’s time to travel to the northern boundary of the Arctic Circle to meet with bear specialist and wildlife photographer Phil Timpany. After years in the trophy hunting business, Phil has redefined his relationship with grizzly bears, honouring their forgiveness and dedicating his life to their well-being. Dubbed the “bear whisperer of North Yukon”, Phil shares how his work as a bear guide is connected to helping preserve an entire ecosystem - from the rivers and spawning salmon to Indigenous communities and beyond.

In the first episode of GrizzCast, join the Grizzly Bear Foundation on a journey through some of the most famous grizzly country in the world with naturalist, author and Vietnam veteran Doug Peacock. Much as the flow of the current pulls a canoe down the river, we hear how the call of the wilderness pulled this icon of conservation toward the grizzly bear, restoring the soul of a war-ravaged soldier. Now a grandfather, Doug explores the future of the grizzly and the importance of the greater Yellowstone ecosystem for these soul-saving bears.

GrizzCast is a journey of discovery of what connects us to the natural world through one of North America’s most iconic species — the grizzly bear. Podcast host and Executive Director of the Grizzly Bear Foundation, Nicholas Scapillati, explores how conservation brings us all together in a shared fight to protect wildlife and wild places through voices and stories of people working on the frontlines.

The podcast series features Indigenous leaders, war correspondents, hunters turned conservationists, National Geographic writers, fishers and foragers. Join us on an intrepid journey from the remote subarctic of the Northern Yukon, to the Pacific coast of British Columbia and into the world's first national park.
