Dan Flores appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience to discuss natural history, wildlife biology, and the historical relationship between humans and the American landscape. During the conversation, Dan Flores discussed the classic volume on wolves titled The Wolves of North America, written by Stanley Paul Young and Edward Alphonso Goldman and published in 1944, noting that he drew upon this foundational research for his own book examining the historical wolf campaign in America. Dan Flores also cited Yuval Noah Harari's sweeping history of humans across time, Sapiens, admitting that it inspired his own writing approach and narrative style for exploring deep history. Furthermore, Dan Flores referenced Charles Darwin's foundational 1859 evolutionary work On the Origin of Species, placing his own historical and biological research within that same overarching evolutionary stream. Through these references, Dan Flores connected his wildlife and environmental studies to a broader lineage of ecological research, human history, and scientific literature that investigates the complex interactions between animal species, human societies, and the changing natural world over millennia.
