  • 4 episodes in and no intention of stopping. Found my new podcast! I'm a hunter on the east coast and love hearing these stories. Episodes 52 and 53 hit home. There are no almost no box turtles left in our area of Southern NJ. 20 years ago there were literally hundreds visible throughout the year each spring. Keep at it!

  • Thanks from Oklahoma!

    With 23 years on, beginning my 24th year tomorrow, I hadn’t gotten into listening to podcasts. One of the guys I supervise, always talks about listening to podcasts. I still resisted. Another GW shared a Bear Grease podcast about caviar poaching in Oklahoma. Knowing all of the GWs involved in the stories, I took interest and decided to listen.
