Ep 50 - Garrett Budds, Chief Conservation Officer, American Prairie

In this episode of Shepherds of the Wild, filmmaker Tom Opre sits down with Garrett Budds, Chief Conservation Officer of American Prairie, for a direct and wide-ranging conversation about one of the most ambitious conservation projects in North America. Budds explains American Prairie’s vision to assemble a large, functioning prairie ecosystem in north-central Montana and addresses hard questions around land acquisition, grazing allotments, bison reintroduction, predator expansion, water rights, public access, and hunting. This episode explores what “rewilding” really means on the ground—and how conservation, agriculture, wildlife management, and rural communities collide in the modern American West.
