Welcome to 'The Wolf Connection' Podcast! Here, we explore the intricate bond between humans and wolves, seeking to better understand our relationship with one of humankind's earliest teachers; the wolf. 🐺 

Re-discovering this human/wolf connection may prove to be essential to our development as individuals, the cultivation of productive societies, and a sustainable civilization on this planet. 

You will experience a wide array of guests, such as Scientists, Authors, Conservationists, Visual Artists, Ranchers, Hunters, Naturalists and even Wolf Connection Staff & Volunteers! 

Topics range from wolves in the wild, their impact on the national landscape and the complex cultural and social significance of the human/wolf connection.

    Really cool but could use more organization
    Love the subject. Hosts and guest seem like really great folks. From the episodes I’ve listened to the questions to the guests being interviewed feel random/disorganized. I also would like a basic, more zoomed out view and introduction to each subject at hand before delving into what feels like random interest points of the interviewer. Like when listening to an episode about wolves in Chernobyl I’d like to have some basic info about the size of the exclusion zone and how many wolves make their home there. The host asks what countries the exclusion zone is in in the last 5 minutes of the episode. When listening to an episode about the state of wolves in Washington I’d like to know how many packs there are in the state and if there are any wolves in western Washington (there was one pack established I’m not sure what happened to it). These are just examples but I’m sure the guests could give really great snapshots of their areas of study if prompted. It’s hard for me to jump around to various specific details without first having some basic context at the landscape level. Thanks!
  • kick add farmgirl
    Great!
    Great pod. I really enjoy the information and the content. Thanks so much.

    Wolf Connection
    Great podcast. If you care about wolves, predators or wildlife and conservation in general this pod is for you! I particularly appreciate the 3 (4?) part series on the depraved Cody Roberts wolf incident.
  • Jpwildlifenerd
    Science based info on wolves
    Generally enjoy this podcast but just listened to episode 169 on the Wyoming wolf incident and thought it was a strange and glaring omission that they never discussed what the incident actually was! Very weird. Too indelicate to describe?? I had read about it and knew the story but not everyone has. It should have been summarized at the very least and not tiptoed around. People need to know the facts, even the unpalatable ones.
  • formerfan59101
    Very educational (and entertaining)
    This podcast has great hosts and amazing guests plus the topic - wolves - never gets old. My only complaint is it’s not frequent enough. I need a daily episode. Lol
  • Crossword puzzle playing momma
    Not for me

  • z765429f
    😑
    HUMANS ARE HUMANS. WE DO NOT COME FROM WOLVES OR APES OR SCREW IT IDK. WE CAME FROM GOD NOT ANIMALS!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • GrizzlyMomma37
    Educational and Informative
    I really enjoy this podcast and hearing from a wide variety of guest speakers. I work at a wolf education center in Colorado and often recommended this podcast on my tours as each episode dives into topics I can only brush the surface on during my hour long tour.

    Wide Variety of Information and Interviews
    This podcast provides lots of great information about wolves that the average person (myself) doesn’t typically stumble upon. As a wolf lover and also a rancher advocate, this podcast gives both perspectives on issues that affect wild wolves. I encourage everyone to listen, especially if you are on one extreme side or the other. I love all the interviews! Followers like myself love all the new information, fun facts, and current events. Thank you!
  • KLB363
    Excellent
    I really appreciate the breadth of interviews on the podcasts. Most recently the interview with Mr Vermillion who had some very informative things to say about wolves in the Northern Rockies. Thank you Mr Vermillion! I have high hopes for you…..
  • Blah blah blah john
    awesome resource!
    as professional new to the wolf conservation field, I am very excited to have your podcast as a learning tool ! Super cool someone has taking the time to bring in wolf experts and allow people to take a look into their brilliant minds and projects. Thanks :)
  • ArizonaWolfWatcher
    THIS PODCAST IS GOLDEN!
    From the perspective of a wolf-lover and nature enthusiast, it just doesn’t get much better than this. John & Stephen navigate fascinating and controversial waters with style, cool heads, and balanced perspectives. With the two of them at the helm and wide range of interesting guests and topics, the Wolf Connection podcast is simply golden!

    I was actually lucky enough to be a part of the Wolf Connection family (even if it was for a short while). I love these big beautiful animals and love hearing their incredible stories. Every time I listen to this podcast I feel like I’m back there surrounded by such beautiful people and beautifully powerful animals :). No episode is missed! 10/10!

    This is an incredible podcast that focuses on the human wolf connection, yet stretches beyond this topic to address human awareness and connection generally. Bonus - John and Stephen are AMAZING! πŸ’œ
  • wcfan007
    A must listen
    This is a wonderful podcast to listen to. The hosts and guests are some of the most passionate people you will hear from. I especially love the most recent episodes from their trip to yellowstone. I myself went for the first time this past year and it felt like I was there again after listening. They tell some great stories. You will learn so much about wolves, wolf-dogs and the incredible work Wolf Connection does with at-risk youth and more.
