Aldo Kane & The Wild Ones: Fighting for Earth’s Rarest Species

The age of watching is over.


For more than 70 years, David Attenborough showed us the beauty
of the natural world. But beauty doesn’t cut it anymore. Action
does.


Wildlife populations have declined by 73% in the past 50 years —
and by 95% in Latin America. We are losing up to 150 species
every day. There are more tigers in captivity than in the wild.


Aldo Kane, former Royal Marine Sniper turned conservation
filmmaker, ventures where few dare to follow in the new Apple TV+
documentary series The Wild
Ones. Together with Declan Burley and
Vianet Djenguet, he searches for the world’s most endangered
species in remote jungles, scorching deserts, and high mountains
— often in war zones and minefields.


From tracking the rarest Gobi bear in Mongolia to capturing the
elusive leopard in Armenia’s minefields, their work is not just
about filming — it’s about changing the fate of species. The Wild
Ones gather irrefutable evidence and deliver it directly to
policymakers, the UN, conservation leaders, and governments who
can create protected zones, deploy military patrols, and enforce
anti-poaching laws.


In this 60-minute conversation, Aldo shares how wildlife
storytelling is evolving into direct conservation action — where
everyone can make a difference — and why the future of our planet
depends on it.
