Many of us have a memory tucked away about an experience in nature that defies belief—a story that resists any traditional explanation, but which helps us understand our interconnectedness with the life around us. Sharing these stories is an integral part of Reconnection Ecology® as they encourage others to seek a closer relationship with nature and support effective, heart-based action on behalf of all global ecosystems.
We want to hear your stories. If you have experiences a transformational encounter with the natural world, please consider sharing your experience with our community. It’s in the sharing that these stories begin to exert their power.
To have your experience added to the map, please use the form below to submit your story. Photos are welcome but not required.
Please note: By submitting your story, you grant us permission to publish it on our site using a map powered by Google Maps. However, not all stories can be published, and we retain the right to decide which stories to include. Due to the number of submissions we receive, we will not be able to contact you to let you know when or if your story will be published. Stories may be edited for length and/or clarity.

Our website presents an aspect of relating to wild animals that many of us don’t realize is possible. We believe that all Life is deeply interconnected and we have much to learn from each other through meaningful, guided interaction led by professional animal handlers. Authentic reconnection results in action to protect wildlands and wild beings.
