Hello, Will! Welcome to the Mountain Lion Foundation. I’m joined in the studio with Will today.
He is also the author of Where the Wild Things Were, a story of scientific discovery, and the irreversible role of predators in the web of life. Will has written widely on all forms of life, from microbes to elephants, but for the past ten years has been focusing on that particular class of creature we call predators - animals who regularly kill and eat other animals to live. The lion’s tale is part romantic tragedy, part heroic quest, and a lens upon the society through which he journeyed. In his latest book, Heart of a Lion - a lone cat’s walk across America, Will follows the path of one individual predator - a teenage mountain lion who makes his way from the Black Hills of South Dakota to the urban outskirts of Manhattan, through a nation of people who haven’t lived among his kind for more than a century. Here to shed light on his journey is wildlife journalist Will Stolzenburg. Julie: One of the most intriguing biological detective stories of the last century involved a young male cougar who journeyed against incredible survival odds in search of new lands and a mate.
