  • Excellent podcasts!

    Absolutely a must listen for everyone who truly cares about wildlife and the environment. Martyn is an excellent story teller and his recordings are incredible! We met in Seattle when a group of people were trying to convince Woodland Park Zoo to release captive elephants to a sanctuary. Martyn is an incredibly talented and compassionate person.
