Untold Radio NetworkShow Notes
EP 310: Face-to-Face with Wild Grizzlies – with Author Stephen F. Stringham, PhD & Special Guest Mark Peterson What happens when you come eyeball-to-eyeball with a wild grizzly… inside its den, on a moonlit mountainside, or while it’s deciding whether you’re prey, rival, or just another curious biped? In this gripping episode of Untold Radio, hosts Doug Hajicek and Jeff Perrella sit down with legendary bear researcher and author Stephen F. Stringham, PhD, and special guest Mark Peterson for raw, firsthand stories of close encounters with North America’s most powerful predators. Dr. Stringham has spent decades studying and living among grizzlies—nearly 20,000 encounters that range from sublime (a mother nursing her cubs while napping beside him) to heart-pounding. Author of Phantom Grizzly and other essential works on bear behavior, communication, and safety, he reveals the science and the stories most people never hear: what bears are really thinking, how they communicate, and how humans can coexist with these magnificent animals without becoming a statistic. Special guest Mark Peterson brings his own intense perspective from the field, adding another layer to the conversation about life (and risk) in grizzly country. If you’re drawn to odd wildlife research, real-life wilderness survival, the mysteries of animal intelligence, or simply the pure adrenaline of staring down a grizzly, this episode delivers the Untold. 🎧 Listen now and step into the world of wild grizzlies like never before. 👉 Exclusive Untold Radio AM merch: https://hangar1publishing.com/collections/untold-radio-am-podcast-merch Follow Untold Radio for more fascinating science, cryptids, mysteries, UFOs, and everything else that remains… Untold. 🌐 untoldradioam.com
