This is a lovely story and it's so wonderful to hear someone, in their golden years, thinking and acting to protect and preserve for future generations.
I met him once at the Emmy Nomination ceremony in 1996, I was nominated. We were sitting down together next to each other. I knew what he was doing with the land. Very honorable man. God bless you with your legacy and your wisdom ❤❤
Ted, I admire your passion for protecting and restoring the nature environments and native species in the United States. What a man who have been. Someone for childre and adults to look up to for what you have done to love our country. Thank you Ted. StoocktonRob (a 1st Infantry Division, 1/18 Infantry Battalion Vietnam War Veteran)
Nice to know That there is land that hasn't been touched by large Corporations destroying the Earth 🌍 for Monetary reasons . But being preserved for it's Natural Beauty ..... just my opinion 😊
Can't be understated Ted's contribution not only to repopulating Bison, Prairie Dog, fish, but funding genetics research during very expensive times. Without him, biology wouldn't be where it is today. Awesome dude.
Ted Turner is my new Hero… My purpose here for over 50 years has been, “On Earth as it is in Heaven” When I heard Ted’s wish of, “Heaven on Earth” 🌎 Twice in this video… I burst out in Tears!!! Another Soulmate comes forth!! ❤🎉
There's 2 sides to every story, keep that in mind. I'm 8 miles away of one of the ranches. There's both good and not so good about it. Out of respect I'll leave it at that.
Aging often brings a shift in perspective, with a deeper appreciation for life and interconnectedness. Seeing animals, nature as fellow inhabitants of this planet rather than beings subservient to humans, reflects a growing sense of humility and respect for the natural world. It suggests a recognition that we share the Earth with other species, each with its own role and intrinsic value, compassionate living, fostering harmony between humans and nature.
Absolutely Beautiful. I’ve always been fascinated with Mr Ted Turner and his life. His love for the United States and Nature/Wildlife is how I will always remember this Great man. Definitely would love to visit his property in New Mexico one day. Bravo
Greetings from Canada. Unbelievable! Beautiful. In line with a true visionary. A gift for his country. RESPECT Mr. TURNER. Buy some land in Canada ( Saskatchewan or Alberta) and do the same project
A buffalo truning his pains (storms) into passion and purpose to make this earth artisticly and heavenly more beautiful. While adding to humanity in his own way. What a beautiful dream and legacy coming to life. 🫶
Wow 😊 much gratitude to Ted Turner for his visionary work in conservation. Just think what our great country would be like if all the people who have vast wealth were of the same mindset 👍👍👍
I respect 🙏 all that you 💯 🙌 🙏 have done i love ❤️ nature its so tranquil and beautiful Mr Turner Thank-you and your family for all the beautiful blessings 🙌 ❤️ much ♥️ from California ♥️ ❤️ 😊 😀 🙏 ✨️
Yes that is another blow to the less privelaged .I also find it sad and troubling that a person can " own " so much land . Even if he is doing tight by it it doesn't seem right
In fairness- everyone has access to our national park systems. The non rich (myself included) do not need access to everything. Teddy Roosevelt and others went to great lengths to make sure, all had access to some of the most beautiful land in the world. If someone like TT did not do this, it would be off the grid and used as strictly a revenue source.
Great news. Ted has a million acress. He can do so much good Preserving nature is the ultimate gift our country can get. Pray his dream continues. Money hungary people will try to destroy a marvelous gift.
Loved this. Wish they would have asked how they intend to ensure it stays protected, such as with conservation easements? Still, wish we had more people like Turner.
His properties will never be destroyed by social media content creators, out for more likes. Biology, ecology and conservation to preserve and enhance nature are the end goals. Ted Turner legacy will absolutely be cemented in history, along with all the biologists and conservation personnel that have worked on each of his properties. Hopefully, another Billionaire watches this Sunday Morning segment and does something similar for the good of mankind and Nature!
That's an amazing legacy, and a gift to future generations. I've visited many conservation areas managed by our federal government and have often been dismayed by the lack of biodiversity due to lack of care.
I so appreciate what he has done. As someone who has lived in the Yellowstone ecosystem, it's comforting to know that there is stewardship for the land and all it residents.
Always Respected Ted Turner for his conservation of the undisturbed American West. He is More of an American Cowboy than John Wayne. Without a man like him so much would be lost to Greed and Development that you would never be able to experience what America, The United States West was like at the beginning of Westward Expansion. A Great Man Indeed. Possibly as Great as President Theodore Roosevelt.
I pray he come to know the maker of nature and the universe in a personal way. Jesus Christ brought heaven to earth. Mr Turner's recognition of the beauty of God in these lands and animals is to be commended. Praying for his healing and an understanding of God's saving grace.
I would like to hear more. As a Nebraska Resident I think I was taught or hinted how bad that he owns more of Nebraskaland than any other person. But I will re-consider as he seems to be doing good supporting and respecting diversity and wildlife. I like Jane Fonda too.
Due of the beauty and limited visitor capacity, this will become a national park for famous and wealthy people. National Parks have become very popular and FULL of tourists from all over the world. Eventually you’ll need to pay top dollar to experience the American wilderness.
They are already exploring ways to "conserve" land & national parks through global initiatives & block access by citizens altogether. Which we know means for the everyday TAXPAYER, rules don't apply if you're rich.
Beautiful. I also believe we can create Heaven on Earth, and even feel it's our duty to do so. That idea is why I created the food forest The Jungle Temple in Costa Rica
this is the way money and natural resources should be respected and used. 🖤
Exactly!!
In a different world Musk and other billionaires would follow that but no hope for that here
This is a lovely story and it's so wonderful to hear someone, in their golden years, thinking and acting to protect and preserve for future generations.
quit being played for a fool
@@brianjacob8728 ??? Ignorant much?
On a bus to Stones Denver I met a cook who works on Ted's mega-ranch near Raton, NM. Even in dementia fighting the good fight. God bless you, Ted! ❤🎉
Moose 🫎 are the largest mammals in North America 🇺🇸 not bison 🦬
I met him once at the Emmy Nomination ceremony in 1996, I was nominated. We were sitting down together next to each other. I knew what he was doing with the land. Very honorable man. God bless you with your legacy and your wisdom ❤❤
Great story. Ted Turner is by any definition a true trailblazer…an amazing man.
maybe he's coming around?
He sure was jacked up and All wrong on politics in the past.
Ted, I admire your passion for protecting and restoring the nature environments and native species in the United States. What a man who have been. Someone for childre and adults to look up to for what you have done to love our country. Thank you Ted. StoocktonRob (a 1st Infantry Division, 1/18 Infantry Battalion Vietnam War Veteran)
Thank God for Americans who realize and can actualize that we are part of that, not the other way around.
Now that’s what I call a real American and a hero to all of us! Wow, what a man!
Nice story.
He sure was full of jacked up ideas years ago.
Maybe he's coming around - life often does that to a man.
@@garygerard4290 a good natured tyrant
@@tuckerbugeater 'ya, that about sums it up - well put!
This is what should make you an American hero
Thank you Mr Turner 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I would absolutely LOVE to experience an American Safari! What an amazing story!
What a wonderful story! His heart is in the right spot and he's leaving a legacy for humanity ❤ similar to Carnegie & the library system.
Hallelujah for a man that can feel so much. 💜💕
We need more Ted Turners.
How about Bill Gates then?
Nice to know That there is land that hasn't been touched by large Corporations destroying the Earth 🌍 for Monetary reasons . But being preserved for it's Natural Beauty ..... just my opinion 😊
Yet you consume just as much of the greed driven resources as anyone else.. Get off your high horse bro.. 😅
thumbs up for the Turner family!!!
Very grateful for his decade's ago vision & commitment to these treasures! 👍🙏🕊️
Decades, apostrophes aren’t used to make nouns plural . 🤦♂️
Can't be understated Ted's contribution not only to repopulating Bison, Prairie Dog, fish, but funding genetics research during very expensive times. Without him, biology wouldn't be where it is today. Awesome dude.

Ted Turner--way to go, I had no idea the scale fo your land holdings--was aware fo the efforts to restore the lands!! God Bless YOU
Don’t be too impressed. People like him make life expensive for the locals.
@@bostonphotographer20 what kind of expenses?
@@TingTong2568 do some research

You would think….this past month makes ya wonder!
Pretty awesome land steward! Protecting those lands from urban sprawl has to be a challenge.
Absolutely Beautiful. I’ve always been fascinated with Mr Ted Turner and his life. His love for the United States and Nature/Wildlife is how I will always remember this Great man. Definitely would love to visit his property in New Mexico one day. Bravo
Greetings from Canada. Unbelievable! Beautiful. In line with a true visionary. A gift for his country. RESPECT Mr. TURNER. Buy some land in Canada ( Saskatchewan or Alberta) and do the same project
It's good to see, that at least one billionaire believes in returning his wealth unselfishly back to America
You don't get to visit. Hard to know what to do with these spaces, but Turner has no interest in the unwashed masses getting a visit.
A buffalo truning his pains (storms) into passion and purpose to make this earth artisticly and heavenly more beautiful. While adding to humanity in his own way. What a beautiful dream and legacy coming to life. 🫶
Gorgeous acreage! Thank you, Ted.
Bless you, Ted. Thank you.
Please how ?
Am a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down 😭 of myself because of low finance but I still believe God😞
It's Wendy Lisa kidd doing she's changed my life. A BROKER- like her is what you need.
$356K monthly is something you should feel differently about....
Lovely! I enjoyed it like I enjoy a $100k monthly around the turn!!!
Truly a great man and American, Ted Turner.
I’ve always loved Ted Turner and I love this story.
Plant native across our dear USA. Consider the wildlife. It will be worth it.
Wow 😊 much gratitude to Ted Turner for his visionary work in conservation.
Just think what our great country would be like if all the people who have vast wealth were of the same mindset 👍👍👍
I’ve got to imagine he’s had conservation easements established on all his land so it can never be developed
I AGREE....😊
This is a great feel good story that should be stored for replay !
(Believe me; it will be sorely needed in the coming 4 years!)
Thank God he is saving this land from the Drill Baby Drill president
If we are lucky enough we will have an election,and if Dump wishes come true , we won’t ever again be able to vote …
WTF is that supposed to mean?
I believe we could have heaven on earth.
We really could.
If mankind wasn't selfish and greedy.
Wow! Incredible!
I respect 🙏 all that you 💯 🙌 🙏 have done i love ❤️ nature its so tranquil and beautiful Mr Turner Thank-you and your family for all the beautiful blessings 🙌 ❤️ much ♥️ from California ♥️ ❤️ 😊 😀 🙏 ✨️
While I applaud the conservation, I weep at the idea that only the rich can enjoy it.
Yes that is another blow to the less privelaged .I also find it sad and troubling that a person can " own " so much land . Even if he is doing tight by it it doesn't seem right
I don't cry about it. I don't need to actually visit his lands.
@ you can’t feel the chains on your soul.
In fairness- everyone has access to our national park systems. The non rich (myself included) do not need access to everything. Teddy Roosevelt and others went to great lengths to make sure, all had access to some of the most beautiful land in the world. If someone like TT did not do this, it would be off the grid and used as strictly a revenue source.
I wonder how much public land access has been closed off due to his ranches?
...wonderful story - may the preserves stay 'as is' thank you...
WOW!!! Absolutely amazing!!!
Great news. Ted has a million acress. He can do so much good
Preserving nature is the ultimate gift our country can get.
Pray his dream continues. Money hungary people will try to destroy a marvelous gift.
Thank you Ted
Moving piece here 🥲
Adding to my bucket list..Very cool legacy for a rich man.😊
A GREAT American.
Salute to you sir!!!
Loved this. Wish they would have asked how they intend to ensure it stays protected, such as with conservation easements? Still, wish we had more people like Turner.
A great rich story.
What an American hero. Thank you so much, Mr. Turner. Those views are absolutely awe-inspiring.
That would be paradise to not be in a crowded place, safe.
I trust Ted's intentions with owning lots of land way more than Bill Gates
Thank you Ted, family and friends for preserving habitats and animals❤
His properties will never be destroyed by social media content creators, out for more likes. Biology, ecology and conservation to preserve and enhance nature are the end goals.

Great stuff and a far longer lasting legacy than money. American Prairie in Montana has a similar vision.
God bless you Ted Turner ❤😊🙏
Bravo, Ted, bravo 👏🏼 🙌🏼
One word, WOW
That's an amazing legacy, and a gift to future generations. I've visited many conservation areas managed by our federal government and have often been dismayed by the lack of biodiversity due to lack of care.

Good😍Love it.
A far cry from "Captain Outrageous ". Way to go, Ted.
I'm so glad to know these places & TedTurner are in the world. Idaho gurl here. I wish we could do the same thing here. Heaven knows we need it.
Literally "Heaven on Earth". Thanks bighearted man❤
This is a way better result of millions, if not billions of dollars.
Thank you, Mr Ted Turner!
How wonderful. Thank you, Mr. Turner.

Good For You Ted Turner!
I was happiest out in nature, nothing beats it.
Blessings. I had a very casual conversation with him one day. I very much respect and appreciate his efforts. ❤❤
More Ted Turners are needed.
If only all rich people would do something as honourable as this...
This is great….thank u Ted….💖
Great story.
❤❤❤❤ LOVE YOU TED TURNER! Well DONE 👍
Thank You Ted ☘️
Respect.. What a legacy
Wow. Looks beautiful somewhere I would love to visit. ❤
Ted is a legend and a great American.
Lee Cowan and Rhett Turner look like brothers!!
Oh so beautiful!! Thank you so much Ted Turner and thank you for posting this!!😍❤️🔥🥰🙏
Indeed. ❤🇺🇸 That is what humanity is all about!
My heart is warm and happy 😊. This is good news I needed to reassure myself that the wild areas are to go on. TedT!!🎉
This is beautiful. Well done :)
Hats off to Ted Turner!
GOD BLESS YOU TED TURNER!❤️
He should gift back the thousands of acres to the Native Americans who it belongs to!
Thank you, Ted
Outstanding!
I pray he come to know the maker of nature and the universe in a personal way. Jesus Christ brought heaven to earth. Mr Turner's recognition of the beauty of God in these lands and animals is to be commended. Praying for his healing and an understanding of God's saving grace.
🙏🕊️
Why do you people have to spin a narrative on everything???? 🙄🤦
Don't allow the public on Turner's land!! Look at the stupid way people behave at Yellowstone.
Beautiful ❤️❤️🫂
I would like to hear more. As a Nebraska Resident I think I was taught or hinted how bad that he owns more of Nebraskaland than any other person. But I will re-consider as he seems to be doing good supporting and respecting diversity and wildlife. I like Jane Fonda too.
Due of the beauty and limited visitor capacity, this will become a national park for famous and wealthy people. National Parks have become very popular and FULL of tourists from all over the world. Eventually you’ll need to pay top dollar to experience the American wilderness.
as bad as it is, i’d rather it be preserved by the wealthy than exploited by the wealthy.
They are already exploring ways to "conserve" land & national parks through global initiatives & block access by citizens altogether. Which we know means for the everyday TAXPAYER, rules don't apply if you're rich.
Very unfortunate .
Also good for animals
I find it sad that these places are only for those able to pay the high prices to visit.
I would love to see this place and photograph them
Bravo Ted 👏. Well done 👍
Fascinating.
Beautiful. I also believe we can create Heaven on Earth, and even feel it's our duty to do so. That idea is why I created the food forest The Jungle Temple in Costa Rica
God bless him!
