Transcript

WNYC Studios is supported by Mutual of Omaha. Peter, the grizzly bear eats way more vegetation than most people realize. Ray, this is not the right time. Whoa, you're right. Time to go. I'll tell you what's really interesting, Peter. The grizzly bear was once on the verge of extinction, but not anymore. Now that is interesting. And they're not the only species out there to make a comeback. I'm wildlife expert Peter Gross. And I'm Dr. Ray Wynn-Grant. From Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, this is Back from the Brink. Stories of species pulled back from the edge. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
