Join host Jeff Corwin on a conservation adventure, beginning in California's Big Sur to help save the majestic California condor. At the Ventana Wildlife Society, Corwin assists in preparing juvenile condors for release into the wild. This iconic bird, North America's largest, was rescued from a population of just 22 individuals in 1982 through a dedicated captive breeding program. Today, approximately 500 condors exist worldwide, with about 300 flying free across the American West and Mexico.

Corwin then travels to his home state of Massachusetts to work with the Department of Fish and Wildlife. His mission there is to protect the unique saltmarsh sparrow, a species vital to the delicate salt marsh habitats of the East Coast.

Join Jeff Corwin as he investigates critical mammal conservation challenges. He reveals that nearly a quarter of all mammals face extinction, with wild species comprising only 4% of global mammal biomass. Corwin focuses on New England's orphaned black bear cubs, increasingly threatened by habitat loss and human proximity.

At the Kilham Bear Center, caregivers like Ethan Kilham raise these cubs, mimicking a mother bear to ensure they remain wild. The aim is to prepare them for release at 18 months, minimizing human interaction. The program showcases the careful process of sedating, health-checking, and tagging cubs like Flower and Dover before their successful return to the wild.

City planner and urban designer Jeff Speck champions walkability and sustainable design. He is the bestselling author of "Walkable City: How Downtown Can Save America, One Step at a Time."

This video, featuring Jeff Speck, was recorded on April 8, 2015, in Lahti, Finland. The event was organized by Aalto University Professional Development, The Regional Council of Päijät-Häme, and the City of Lahti, with partial funding from the European Regional Development Fund.

Join Jeff Corwin as he explores climate change impacts, from California's drought-stricken Sierra Nevada and the Caldor Fire's aftermath, where he meets firefighters, to Washington State. There, he highlights conservation efforts for the resourceful American beaver and the endangered Pygmy rabbit.

In Washington, Corwin joins the Tulalip Beaver Project, which humanely relocates beavers from conflict areas. Beavers are vital ecosystem engineers, building dams that increase water storage, filter pollutants, promote biodiversity, and create crucial salmon habitat. Nearly hunted to extinction, these resilient animals are now recovering, with the Tulalip Tribal Community leading successful wildlife management and research efforts.

Join Jeff Corwin on an Alaskan adventure to conserve North America's birds. He explores the Tongass National Forest, a vast old-growth temperate rainforest critical for species like the goshawk and vital for carbon sequestration. This unique ecosystem supports diverse wildlife, despite past logging impacts.

Corwin also visits the Alaska Raptor Center, where he helps rehabilitate and release a young bald eagle named Diesel. Rescued after being hit by a car, Diesel's recovery highlights the center's work in returning iconic raptors, including bald eagles and goshawks, to their natural habitat.

Host Jeff Corwin celebrates the Endangered Species Act (ESA), landmark 1973 legislation protecting vulnerable wildlife and ecosystems. The bald eagle, once near extinction, exemplifies the ESA's success, having recovered and now thriving across the U.S.

The ESA also protects sea turtles, with Florida's beaches being globally vital nesting sites. Conservation efforts, like Boca Raton's beachfront parks, are crucial. While only 1 in 10,000 hatchlings survive to adulthood, protecting their habitat allows these keystone species to flourish. All six sea turtle species nesting in America are protected by the ESA.
