Master photographer Tom Mangelsen of Jackson Hole will share some of his wildlife photography secrets and his passion for wild places and wild things in a special Wyoming edition of “Discover the Wild” this Sunday, March 6, at 6:30 PM on Wyoming PBS as part of the festivities during pledge week.

The “Discover the Wild” series, a program featuring 10 shows with 25 titles filmed in Wyoming, presents an array of wildlife and related topics and was produced by Evergreen Productions of Casper. This Sunday night’s broadcast will showcase three of Mangelsen’s wildlife photography features produced for the series on light, knowing animal behavior, exposures and composition. Viewers will also be treated to segments on Yellowstone wildlife in winter, Jackson Hole elk, Park County and Sublette County Wyoming wildlife, grizzly bears and the Teton Science School. They will also have an opportunity to bid on a stunning 20 x 30 Mangelsen print, “Fire on the River.”

“To have Tom on board for the live PBS broadcast of these segments from ‘Discover the Wild’ is a real honor for us,” says producer, Neil Rodgers. “He’s one of the top wildlife photographers in the world. And, like so many other folks who live here, he shares our unbridled enthusiasm for wild animals and the wild landscapes they inhabit.”
