Did you know some eels migrate from Lake Ontario all the way to the Bermuda Triangle in the Atlantic Ocean? How wild is that?!Here’s a story from Beyond the Shore, made by our friends at Michigan Public. Just like How Wild, this podcast takes you outdoors to explore the huge inland seas known as the Great Lakes, what makes them so special, and what it will take to ensure they stay great for generations to come. This episode takes us on a road trip following the long and amazing journey of the American eel from Lake Ontario to spawn. Both How Wild and Beyond the Shore are proud to be part of the American Storytelling Collection. To find even more great titles to explore the outdoors with the NPR Network, just search for the 'American Storytelling Collection' in the NPR App or on Apple Podcasts.

How Wild hits trails around the country, exploring the meaning of wilderness. A century ago, the U.S. set aside the first official wilderness. You'll hear stories from rangers, scientists, hikers, environmentalists, and Tribal leaders as they grapple with the realities of wilderness on a changing planet, and whether the concept of "wilderness" has ever really existed.

Folge vom 10.02.2026Introducing the American Storytelling collectionWhat does it mean to be an American? There’s no one way. At NPR, we think of the American identity as a story - one that's always being rewritten by the people who live it. The American Storytelling collection gathers stories from local stations across the NPR Network - from small town struggles, to natural phenomena, to the intricate histories that build the constantly-evolving tale of our nation. These are our biggest little-known shows. Find them in the American Storytelling channel on Apple Podcasts or on the NPR App.To manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
