Jeff Corwin explores the Great Plains' interconnected species. He aids bison re-establishment with Native American tribes and conserves black-footed ferrets, once thought extinct. Ferrets critically depend on prairie dogs, a keystone species decimated by habitat loss and Sylvatic plague, nearly causing their extinction. The species was famously rediscovered by a dog named Shep.

Conservation efforts involve canine teams, like Melissa Steen and Tule, locating ferrets in prairie dog burrows. Spotlight teams, including Chamois Andersen, then find and trap ferrets at night. Biologists like Jessica Alexander collect vital data and administer life-saving vaccines against Sylvatic plague, ensuring this fragile population's survival.

Join the Natural History Institute in welcoming Dr. Earyn McGee, a herpetologist and passionate science communicator. Her PhD research focused on how climate change and human water use impact lizard diets in the Southwest, particularly as streams dry due to drought.

Dr. McGee is also dedicated to addressing barriers for Black women in natural resources careers. She co-founded a program with Delta Sigma Theta to introduce middle school girls to these fields. A Forbes 30 Under 30 lister and AAAS IF/THEN STEM Ambassador, she engages audiences via social media, including her popular #FindThatLizard game and her accounts at @Afro_Herper on Twitter and Instagram.

Jesper K. Strange Kjeldsen, co-founder of the Danish water company Postevand ("tapwater"), advocates for sustainable hydration, emphasizing that the best water often comes directly from the tap. When tap water isn't available, Postevand offers high-quality groundwater in eco-friendly FSC cartons, shipped locally. Uniquely, the company discourages buying their product on the carton. For his work against the crowded bottled water market, Jesper was named Idealist of the Year 2015 in Denmark.

Summer in the U.S. Southwest and northern Mexico brings intense heat, but also much-needed monsoon rains. This seasonal relief is vital for the arid region.

Recently, a borderlands remote camera captured numerous videos of a black bear thoroughly enjoying a cooling canyon pool, a welcome respite from the summer temperatures. #HotBearSummer

At the TBN National Conference 2011, Greg Spencer presented the Paradigm Project. This for-profit business supplies healthy, efficient stoves to Africa, significantly reducing families' wood consumption and smoke inhalation, while improving their economic stability.

The project not only aids the poor but also leverages billions in carbon markets, combats deforestation, and challenges the notion that profiting from the poor cannot benefit them.
