On this episode of Wild Tails, I’m joined by Greg Rasmussen, renowned conservationist and founder of the Painted Dog Research. Greg has dedicated his life to protecting one of Africa’s most endangered predators—the African painted dog.

He shares a thrilling and eye-opening story from the field, giving us a firsthand look at the challenges of studying and conserving these remarkable animals. From close calls in the wild to the critical role painted dogs play in their ecosystem, Greg’s passion for their survival is contagious.
