Episode 682 - The Harsh Truth of Tourism | Sean de la Harpe Parker
Wildlife safaris are turning into circus acts—and animal behaviour specialist Sean de la Harpe Parker explains how overtourism, social media, and the chase for close-up sightings can put wildlife at risk. In conversation with Robbie Kroger, Sean shares why ethical guiding starts with slowing down, respecting animals’ behaviour, and letting go of the “checkbox” safari. A thought-provoking episode about the role guests, guides, and the tourism industry can play in protecting the wild.
