Misunderstandings with The Maasai: Part Two

Going Wild with Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant

Show Notes

When I was living in Kenya, I learned a lot about animals and conservation, and I also learned about people and culture, sometimes through my own horribly embarrassing mistakes. I told you about one of those moments last week. This week I'm bringing you another story. If you want to go back and listen to part one, it's here: https://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/podcast/misunderstandings-with-masaai-one/ For more episodes: https://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/podcasts/going-wild/ New episodes of "Going Wild with Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant" are released on Tuesdays.

Going Wild is back! This season we're heading out of the studio and into the wilderness: entering bear dens in Arkansas, diving for slave shipwrecks in the Florida Keys and wading through murky swamps to bring you closer to the people, the animals, the sounds and the stories that make these wild spaces so magical and so worth protecting.
