Correspondent Lee Cowen reports that Ted Turner has “actually always been a naturalist at heart.” Ted Turner has spent decades restoring struggling species like the American bison, Mexican wolf, Bolson tortoise and the Rio Grande cutthroat trout. Now, travelers have a chance to experience the beauty of the nature preserves through Ted Turner Reserves – Vermejo, Armendaris, Ladder and Sierra Grande. Ted Turner Reserves President Jade McBride says, “The focus is to get people out here so we can reconnect humanity with nature.” To keep the footprint on nature small, the number of people who can visit is limited, but each visitor is rewarded with an unparalleled connection to these wild lands. Watch the video to discover the powerful role that travel can play in conservation.
