Wildlife is Not a Selfie, with John Banovich
In this debut episode of On the Wild Edge, photographer and wildlife cinematographer John Banovich joins host Fairlie Ann Arrow and co-host Stacy James from Dazzle Africa for an unforgettable conversation about truth, coexistence, and the wild beings still holding on in the shadows of human expansion.
From intimate stories about a Grizzly named Mumf and a Caribou named Bruno, to real talk on the consequences of feeding bears, selfie culture, and ecological imbalance, this episode peels back the myths surrounding wildlife and urges us to reimagine how we share the planet.
Banovich, with three decades of filming across Canada’s wilderness, reveals what bears have taught him about resilience, solitude, and soul. But it’s also a call to action to slow down, protect migration corridors, and stop seeing wild animals as either threats or entertainment.
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like to stand face to face with a grizzly or what it might take to live in respectful coexistence, this conversation might just change the way you see your world.
