The Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan is known for its pristine forests, prioritising wellbeing over economic growth, and being the world's first carbon negative country. In this episode, Kate Humble and Edward Whitley hear from wildlife biologist Kuenzang Dorji on how Buddhism is the cornerstone to conservation in Bhutan. He's restoring harmony between two populations in Bhutan's forests: Gee's Golden Langur monkeys and farmers, many of whom live below the national poverty index and whose crops of oranges, guava and even chilli, the primates have started to raid. Using an arsenal of natural deterrents as well as citizen science, Kuenzang is determined to restore the good fortune once associated with the leaping langur and the harmonious coexistence between people and primates.
