NTOTA feels lucky to call Chris Morgan a friend.  He is an ally of the natural world and all of its inhabitants, and works tirelessly to connect all of us, wherever we are, to nature.  We are huge fans.  So it made sense to support his podcast work and  collaborate with a select group to make another season of THE WILD possible. 

Chris wrote to us about making this a reality: 

“…This is incredible news for the podcast and for me personally….you all stepped in when I asked you for help in my time of need and it means so so much to me. THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I smile every time I read your names in the podcast credits (like yesterday as we finished up the latest episode on bats) – this podcast literally would NOT BE POSSIBLE WITHOUT YOU. We would not be producing it if you each hadn’t stepped in. I’ll be hoping and praying for your continued support for season 4 which will start in around May. And please know that any additional funds you would like to contribute this year will go towards the podcast and to support conservation on the ground as we always do at Wildlife Media.”

NTOTA genuinely hearts the work of Belize Wildlife and Referral Clinic. The team in Belize, led by the fearless and hardworking Dr. Isabelle Paquet-Durand, takes care of any and all wildlife that needs care, all for free.  Here at NTOTA we are pleased to supply some much needed equipment to the Belize Wildlife and Referral Clinic.  After some discussion with Dr. Paquet-Durand, we were able to purchase an X-Ray Processor and a Nomad Pro2 Handheld X-Ray System, which are used in the field caring for the varied clientele of the wilds of Belize. Working closely with Dr. Paquet-Durand means that her organization gets what they need most.  When NTOTA makes a contribution to the Belize Wildlife and Rescue Clinic, we want to make sure it counts.

NTOTA is proud to support several of FCD Belize’s initiatives.

NTOTA has donated funds to FCD’s Ranger Program, the Anti-Poaching Unit, and the Scarlet Macaw Conservation Program.  The Ranger program actively monitors the entire Chiquibul Forest and defends the forest and its inhabitants on a day-to-day basis.  The Anti-Poaching Unit works specifically to protect wildlife from being hunted and poached, specifically Scarlet Macaws, jaguars and Tapirs.  The Scarlet Macaw Conservation Program focuses on monitoring the existing Scarlet Macaw population, noting feeding and breeding patterns, recording the number of eggs laid, hatchlings and fledglings each season.  The Scarlet Macaw Conservation Program also works integrally with the Anti-Poaching Unit if chicks are discovered as missing, with full effort going into rescuing and rehabilitating any birds saved. This year the program rescued 7 poached chicks and 2 sick chicks, with 7 successfully reared to maturity with rehabilitation and released  back into the wild.

NTOTA’s heart skips a beat when dolphins are involved, and even though LMMN are not part of our regular group of causes, we wanted to support the efforts of the Lowcountry Marine Mammal Network.  Their organization is a non-profit focused on protecting marine animals (dolphins, seals and whales) in the waters of South Carolina.
