Have you ever wondered how a species gains protection in Congress or what the process is for getting an area or species listed? I’ve asked myself these questions several times, and so I connected with my good friend Hailey Hawkins to learn more.

Hailey works for the Endangered Species Coalition and works with the public and political leaders to put conservation into legal action. We dive deep into the process of listing a species and discuss next steps for reintroducing wolves into Colorado. She also opens up about her battle with mental health struggles and shares her coping strategies.

We drank lots of wine and had a blast recording this one for you all. Let me know what you think of this episode by reaching out at rewildolgy.com and don’t forget to subscribe and review on your favorite streaming app.
