- Awesome but species biased!
They give nod to human indigenous cultures affected by colonialism but completely ignore indigenous prey affected by these predators who ruthlessly take what is theirs without any acknowledgment of the prey who occupied the land long before the predators arrived and began displacing prey families.
I would highly suggest before every episode we pay homage to:
1) Any and all indigenous cultures affected by the current people(s) occupation where the story takes place. (Even outside the U.S.)

Hi guys! I began listening to NPAD in 2024 and the ladies there are always singing your praises. You are amazing! I am learning so much valuable information about the animals we share this planet with. Pretty bummed that some other reviewers are leaving poor reviews about “political” commentary. The reality is that conservation IS a political issue and a human issue. Anyways, love you guys! Hope you all have fun with the NPAD crew on the joint adventure.
