Our bear show on BBC 2 March 8th!
Dear Friends,

I just wanted to let you in on some excitement - our show 'Grizzlies of Alaska' will be airing on BBC 2 on Thursday March 8th, at 8pm (The Natural World)! So for those of you who are in the UK, tune in, and let us know what you think! It tells the beautiful story of our experiences among Alaska's giant coastal brown bears over the course of a summer. It is very exciting to see our show airing on Sir David Attenborough's long-running Natural World slot, and it thrusts our little non-profit organization (Wildlife Media) into the limelight alongside wonderful partners like PBS and the BBC. Sir David is a big part of the reason I got involved with wildlife in the first place - I've been watching his shows since I was about 7! Kudos to my good friend and creative genius Joe Pontecorvo - an amazing director, cameraman, and producer.

More excitement this year - we'll be filming the final location of our movie BEARTREK, an epic around the world bear adventure: polar bears in the Arctic. We've already filmed amazing bear stories in Peru, Borneo, and Alaska for BEARTREK - a film that will break the mold in several ways. Thanks to the generosity of so many people, we are well on the way to completion. This non profit film and campaign pumps all profits back into conservation, and we've already accomplished a lot for bears and wild places around the world along the way. We still need  support to finish BEARTREK, so please tell your friends (donate, follow us on Facebook etc). Once complete we'll be ready for the film festival circuit and the big screen next year, and an audience of millions to influence good things for our planet. We're all in this together! Watch the 90 second trailer here: www.wildlifemedia.org.

As we speak I am tracking tigers in Siberia for a show that will air on PBS Nature later this year. There are only around 400 of these incredible animals left in the wild. Even a track will make my heart pound with excitement. Send me your warm vibes - it's around minus 30!

Best wishes,

Chris
