Jame Shooter: Host of “The Rewilding Podcast”
Episode 12: James Shooter on Rewilding’s Rising Wave of New Careers and Possibilities
Podcast Episode Coming Soon!
In this episode:
James Shooter is a nature photographer, filmmaker, and podcaster based in Scotland’s beautiful Cairngorms National Park. Immersed in the world of rewilding, James focuses on telling hopeful environmental stories and showing how nature can recover when people work with it rather than against it.
For a decade he's worked with the rewilding charity Scotland: The Big Picture as a visual storyteller and field guide. Recently, he and his family spent eighteen months traveling across Europe, visiting rewilding projects in eighteen countries and turning those experiences into the acclaimed The Rewild Podcast.
In this conversation, James shares the surprising lessons he gathered from rewilders in places like Bulgaria, Sweden, and Croatia, and why he believes the future of rewilding around the world may be far more hopeful than most people realize.

Conversations on the Lynx ; with James Shooter
From Meander Scotland Magazine:
What drew you to become an ambassador for the lynx?
I think lynx really encapsulate the wild. They’re the ghosts of the forest, silently stalking through their woodland realm, only ever letting themselves be seen by a lucky few. Their presence brings a sense of magic and mystery – this is a large part of why we all fall in love with nature in the first place.
