This week we are excited to interview National Geographic Explorer and conservation photographer Carlton Ward Jr. We are also excited to learn about his latest project helping the conservation of the critically endangered Florida Panther! Carlton's experiences are captured in the National Geographic film 'Path of the Panther', as well as his book coming out on May 2, 2023 and his article in National Geographic. Without a doubt Carlton is a conservation hero and is fighting hard to save these big cats.
