Kathy on Earth with Kathy Nicholas
A show about life on Earth - the animals and plants and the people who live here, too. I’ve spent over 20 years working for animals and trying to protect nature. I’ve seen wild polar bears on the tundra. I tracked tree kangaroos in Australia’s rainforest. I even bird watch while I’m driving on the freeway. Mostly I’ve been around human animals and I am infinitely interested in human nature. We’re talking about how nature works and how people relate to nature, other animals, and to each other. Join me and my guests as we talk about their lives, wildlife, our favorite animals, and the stuff of life on Earth.

Welcome to Kathy on Earth! A podcast about animals, nature, and people - and how we humans relate to animals, nature and each other.
I've spent over 20 years working with animals and for nature - from the Arctic to the Australian rainforests. But mostly I have been around humans and it's so much fun to make the connections between what we do and how nature works.
We talk to animal experts, human nature experts and we talk about our favorite pets. Join us to talk about life on Earth.
