We are excited to bring back to you National Geographic photographer Jad Davenport. Jad will be sharing his experiences as a travel photographer and the beautiful images he has captured in the company of wolves!
Overview
National Geographic photographer and wolf expert Jad Davenport shares the joys and challenges of photographing and studying wild wolves.
With wolves returning to Colorado after nearly a century, Jad will talk about the joys and challenges of photographing the planet's most controversial and elusive predator. He’ll share tips on where and how to track and locate wolves, what photography equipment you need—long lenses, digi-scoping, trail camera and drones—discuss photography ethics, talk about what times of day are best, and show you how to safely work around wolves and other large predators including black, grizzly and polar bears.
