  • 142 Wonder Wardens - With Melissa Gauthier & Therese Bogatko
    Mar 11 2025
    Back in 2018, a small group of female officers from Alberta Fish and Wildlife saw the need to engage with each other more actively and support community causes at the same time. This dedicated team has since participated in charity fundraisers, launched an outdoor education camp for young women, and is now working to establish a scholarship to help even more women join conservation law enforcement.

    Wrapping up the CJ Alexander series, we sit down with Christian Babcock and Jake Gaylord, the dynamic duo behind the popular Hunters Advantage podcast. In early 2024, Alexander made a memorable appearance on their podcast, spinning his well-worn underdog tale of an unbelievably lucky trophy buck - a tale that took a dramatic turn when it was later revealed he had already confessed to poaching it.

Interesting

Good episode. I wouldn't have thought ginseng poaching was a thing but not really surprising either. Very informative.
First time I was able to leave a rating and review (Spotify does not allow me to for some reason). I'll continue listening on Audible in the future.

Awesome stories, great Podcaster

4 episodes in and no intention of stopping. Found my new podcast! I'm a hunter on the east coast and love hearing these stories. Episodes 52 and 53 hit home. There are no almost no box turtles left in our area of Southern NJ. 20 years ago there were literally hundreds visible throughout the year each spring. Keep at it!
