Writer and producer of books, television and video games are just some of the hats Will Staples wears. From well known titles like Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare III to the popular Jack Reacher TV series and more, this guy’s seen (and written) a lot. Last year, he took his talents to writing a book about animal trafficking, and the murky criminal enterprises behind it. Not much is known about this world because it’s not the highest priority for law enforcement, making his job of shedding light on it even harder.

Andrew Danckwertz is a Safari Guide and Owner / Operator of Odysseia Collection (https://theodysseiacollection.com) that leads photographic expeditions to wild corners of Africa. He is a phenomenal photographer and was one the first persons online to hit back on the Elephant hunt - specifically calling Blood Origins out. Because of who we are, I wanted to engage Andrew and give him an opportunity to voice his opinion and thoughts as we believe one on one dialogue is the best course of action for discussing these controversial topics, as opposed to resorting to name calling through social media. Andrew's viewpoint, which is held by a number of people, needs to be considered as we consider the best mechanisms specifically for big tuskers to be around for our kid and grandkids one day.

WARNING: CONTROVERSIAL. Robbie sits down with Leon Kachelhoffer, the Professional Hunter who accompanied the hunter who took the big tusker elephant out of NG-13 in Botswana. Controversy surrounds this elephant, mainly because it's a ‘Big Tusker’ - an elephant with a tusk(s) over 100 pounds, which are essentially iconic. While controversial, this conversation is a critical one about the generalities of sustainable, well-managed elephant hunting and why it is important.
