About the Podcast

So do the people who care for them. Bearing Weight is a podcast about the untold stories of elephants and the veterinarians, caregivers, researchers, advocates, and sanctuary leaders around the world who have dedicated their lives to them.

These are honest, grounded conversations about what it really takes to put elephants first — the science, the sacrifice, the hard-won knowledge, and the quiet, daily work that rarely makes headlines.

At a time when elephant welfare organizations often work in isolation, Bearing Weight is a space for their voices to gather, so their work can be found, understood, and supported.
