Part of the Changemaker Speaker Series, wildlife filmmaker and National Geographic explorer Casey Anderson brings audiences face‑to‑face with the animals most people avoid: grizzlies, mountain lions, tigers, and other apex predators. Drawing on three decades in the field—including being charged, bitten, clawed, stung, and even raising a grizzly bear—Anderson pairs breathtaking imagery with deeply personal stories that challenge long‑held myths about “dangerous” wildlife.

Among Wild Predators is both an adventure and a reframing: predators as vital, intelligent beings—and as mirrors of our own courage, empathy, and survival instincts. At 26 he adopted an orphaned cub and later co‑founded Montana Grizzly Encounter, a sanctuary for bears rescued from inhumane situations. A familiar presence across Nat Geo WILD, BBC, PBS, and Discovery, Anderson translates close‑range encounters into insight about coexistence, risk, and respect for the wild.
