Voices of Greater Yellowstone

Conservation Storytelling through a Lens


Listen Later

They say, “a picture is worth a thousand words,” although sometimes it feels like we’re left speechless when viewing the spectacular photos and film of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. People from across the globe who have never visited this remarkable region feel a connection simply from the story these images tell. From a bird’s eye view of Grand Prismatic Spring, to a sweet moment of a grizzly bear sow and her cubs, to the sheer vastness that is Greater Yellowstone, the moments captured via camera inspire us all.

On today’s episode, we’re thrilled to welcome Ronan Donovan—conservation storyteller and National Geographic photographer. From cutting his teeth on the 2016 Yellowstone edition of National Geographic Magazine to focusing on the relationship between people and wolves across the globe, Ronan uses his brilliant photography and cinematography to share the intimate scenes of wildlife and the importance of conservation. We chat about his favorite moments in the field, the elusive Greater Yellowstone species he has yet to capture on film, and the power of “awe.”
 
Voices of Greater Yellowstone was created by the Greater Yellowstone Coalition, a conservation nonprofit dedicated to working with people to protect the lands, waters, and wildlife of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, now and for future generations.

The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is the land of 49+ Indigenous Tribes who maintain current and ancestral connections to the lands, waters, wildlife, plants, and more.
