Nature Travel | Ben Bressler: Close Up Encounters with Polar Bears, Wolves, and Tigers + Raising the Bar on Conservation

Today you'll come face to face with a polar bear, see a herd of twenty elephants passing by your picnic setup, and hear the wings flap of 500,000 monarch butterflies. The topic of today's show is nature travel, and my guest is Ben Bressler, Founder and CEO of Natural Habitat Adventures - a company that achieves their mission of conservation through helping you explore the wilderness. Whether you're in India tracking tigers, or just in your own backyard enjoying the wonders of a tiny hummingbird, there is an awe in observing the natural world that can teach us something precious about life. Ben and I chat about the first time he realized tourism could be a driving force for conservation, some incredible experiences he's had in the wild, and how just being in nature and taking it all in can be one of the most powerful tools for sustainability.
