Informational and well thought out. Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this.
The care with which the Narwhal told the story of Bear 148 and her consistent struggles with her own environment and the environment humans created is so well told. More podcasts like this would only have a positive effect on conservation efforts.

Amazing and educational. Hoping the Narwhal and Y2Y makes more podcasts about conservation to spread awareness across Canada about human and animal conflict.
