George Schaller may be the reason mountain gorillas, Bengal tigers, and giant pandas still exist in the wild. Considered the father of modern field biology, he trained Jane Goodall and Dian Fossey, worked in 32 countries, and sounded the alarm on the "great dying" of the natural world decades before anyone was listening. Yet almost no one knows his name.
Miriam Horn, author of Homesick for a World Unknown, has written the first-ever biography of Schaller. This episode explores what set him apart — not just as a scientist, but as someone who saw conservation as inseparable from the lives of the people living alongside the animals he studied. We dig into what Schaller's roadmap can teach us now, and why a man who may have saved more nature than anyone in history remains so unknown.
