<p>Journey across Tennessee’s wild landscapes in this powerful new episode of <em>Tennessee WildCast</em>. This week, we take an inspiring look at four of TWRA’s dedicated land managers as they steward places like Bogota, Laurel Hill, North Cumberland, and the Bridgestone Firestone Centennial Wilderness—some of the most ecologically rich and recreationally diverse properties in the state.</p><p>From wetlands full of wintering waterfowl to upland forests, oak savannas, and early‑successional fields, this episode digs into the science and passion behind modern habitat management. You’ll hear how prescribed fire, timber harvests, moist‑soil production, and long‑term forest planning all work together to benefit wildlife—from deer and turkey to small mammals, songbirds, elk, and threatened species. And on properties where rugged terrain and broad public access collide, you’ll learn how managers balance habitat needs with hunters, hikers, OHV riders, bird‑watchers, anglers, and thousands more outdoor enthusiasts.</p><p>Whether you’re chasing ducks, running a bird dog, glassing for elk, or simply exploring public land, this episode reminds us that great habitat takes intention, patience, and a whole lot of passion. These are the people shaping the future of Tennessee’s wild places—for today and for generations to come.</p><p>To purchase a license for great hunting and fishing adventures in Tennessee, visit <a href="http://gooutdoorstennessee.com">gooutdoorstennessee.com</a>.</p>
