Lost In Sri Lanka - Episode 1, Grab Your Binoculars

Nerds welcome to the first episode of our 2026 mini series, Lost In Sri Lanka.

We start by unpacking the rucksack of wildlife tourism through it's pro's & con's. What does it mean to be a responsible wildlife tourist? What are the impacts of wildlife tourism if not properly managed? And how can we properly center a community to ensure tourism stays at the heart of the people? These questions all answered by people on the ground in this first episode.
