Chris Morgan Wildlife
United States
Приєднався 28 кві 2021
I’ve dedicated my life to studying and protecting wildlife, and sharing that knowledge with as many people as possible. And recently I can feel a hunger for change in the world - a new relationship with nature...
And something I’ve seen time and time again, in films, on stage, in person, in ears... is that stories about wildlife, and the world we live in, attract people. Their curiosity leads to fascination, and then love. When someone loves something, they want to care for it. It’s been a lifelong journey for me trying to crystallize this wonder - through education, films, talks, and now the podcast.
Here you'll experience some of those stories, often segments of larger stories from films and THE WILD with Chris Morgan podcast. Afterwards, perhaps you'll launch your own journey to care for our world. I truly hope that is the case. So kick back and watch, listen, share. Then join me...let's do some good together!

Leigh Ann Henion: Darkness, and the creatures of the night
Nature writer Leigh Ann Henion has spent countless hours uncovering mysteries of the darkness that unfold while we’re asleep. She’s explored bats, moths, glow worms, spotted salamanders, and she’s written a new book about it called Night Magic: Adventures Among Glowworms, Moon Gardens, and Other Marvels of the Dark.
Today, Chris talks with Leigh Ann Henion about what we can find in the darkness and how we can preserve it, even from our own back porch.

Caroline Tracey: How this tiny bird could save salt lakes
Переглядів 14314 днів тому
Four times in the past decade Lake Abert has completely dried up, a barren lakebed encrusted with salt. Salt lakes are among the world's most threatened ecosystems. Lack of water could lead to many of these lakes permanently drying up in the American West. But there is one tiny bird that could change all that. The Wilson’s Phalarope depends on salt lakes on their 6500-mile migration between Nor...

Cuyahoga Valley National Park is nestled between Akron and Cleveland, Ohio. It once was an industrial wasteland, filled with debris from the nearby auto factories. The Cuyahoga river was so polluted that it literally caught fire. That fire was a moment that sparked an environmental movement. But I'm headed upstream. I'm going to follow the river and its story from its grim past to becoming a na...

Thank you for making this video. Such important information for everyone to know. Humans must stop hunting bears, and coexist instead. Trophy hunting needs to be banned across the planet, bear bile farms as well. It's atrocious, what we are doing to all wild things.
very nice video, but underrated by users
♥
Extreme Nature! 😀
it's good to see you in good shape! Take care, love for bears!
beautiful video, so inspiring!!! thank you!!!
As always, another piece of great content Chris. Amazing video and I also love your podcast! Thanks for all you do to help keep our wild places wild. I would love the chance to meet you someday and join you for one of your outdoor adventures 🤞🏼
No one that lives there wants more grizzlys, Just hollywood actors
They're truly amazing animals, aren't they. Love your movies and podcast and what we all can learn from your narratives ❤
Knowledge is power. We fear what we don't understand, I help teach peopIe to coexist with wiId snakes. ❤ Nature's underdogs need aII the heIp they can get. 😊
Just heard your interview with Rick Steve 👍 well done
outstanding people.
Gratitude
Absolutely amazing. Thank you for all of your work and for your incredible podcast. I just started listening and am totally enthralled.
Love all your content! Keep it coming
You are Amazing!!!😊
Gratitude
Your words reach me soooo! The magic of that deep connection with the outdoors often makes me neglect my indoor responsibilities. Thanks for sharing your magic evening. You said you got to know the crows… any chance you got any videos of them? 😃
Amazing, the bear is beautiful
Congratulations Chris for your work
Where can I watch this please?
March 23, 2023 it will premiere on Waterbear and there will be more options coming soon. Watch our website for details www.wildlifemedia.org/potb
@Chris Morgan Wildlife just finished watching it, I loved it! Very moving. I will definitely be donating to help secure their future 🐻 ❤️
If it is on a boat
Can a dog hear the whales underwater?
the orcas did a close swim by... assessing if they somehow had a snack barking at them.... like they do with seals... lol
Can’t wait! Everything you do captures those indescribable feelings that nature brings to us.
Thank you Phillip, what a kind and thoughtful comment.
Great job! Love the color grading.
Thanks so much!
Jeff Bridges is an amazing ,He may Come form a long line of actors but he's So grounded
Thank you for talking with Jeff Bridges- will always be a fan of his! Brings attention to this problem and sure hope things get better for the grizzly bear.
Jeff bridges and only 134 subscribers? Something seems wrong here.
Are you saying that there is only ten grizzlies left in the entire Cascade range? Including BC? I'd like to see that data. This was more of a plug from Jeff Bridges than a documented story about the decline of a species. Put in some facts next time, please.
Hi Jeffrey. Yep. That’s all we wanted from Jeff…his quick passionate thoughts. Lots of North Cascades griz facts in our other films. Try “WANTED: grizzly bears” and “Time for the grizzly”. Chris
Pretty sure he meant in the lower 48. Of course there are a lot more in the Cascades of Canada.
Take some from Yellowstone and relocate them to this region.
One idea is to bring a small number of bears from Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem….not Yellowstone but another robust population.
@@ChrisMorganWildlife I thing there’s still hope to increase the grizzly bear population in the Cascades. Back in the 1970s, the salt water crocodile population in Australia was dwindling and they were then given endangered species status. So I think Australia did something similar to what you’re describing and now they have a thriving population of salt water crocs and big ones too!! 🐊 🐊 🐊 🐊 🐊
The Yellowstone Griz have lost their fear of man. They see man now as prey. That's not a healthy attitude for bears or people.
@@robertdouglas8895 Well I certainly haven’t lost my fear of grizzly bears! 🐻😱
No, thanks.
bro I met him 2 days ago we had diner together
probably silly to ask but, how come the bears aren't showing aggression towards you or looking at you as a meal?
I thought the same thing lol. Absolutely beautiful creatures, but id be admiring them from a bit further off...
They can become habituated to humans, and see us just as part of the landscape. It helps to not have food and drink on us, to keep a safe distance, and for it to be a place where humans are commonly present.
How about using focus. It's good to have things in focus.
When’s the next time you’re filming a bear documentary I miss those old ones! Love the uploads btw
Fabulous! Enjoy your time in beautiful, amazing Alaska with those gorgeous bears!
Incredible footage! Interesting how he layed down just as a dog would!
First
Love this Chris!!
I feel like hugging the bears Chris❤️
Chris Morgan..you are always the best👍👍👍🌹
