Set against the backdrop of a rapidly unfolding mass extinction event, Nature’s Last Dance captures nature like you’ve never seen before! Author Natalie Kyriacou takes readers headfirst into a fierce, funny, and provocative journey about power, politics, (wildlife) courtship, joy, tragedy, and what it means to be human on a planet in crisis. An adventure across hunting grounds, through jungles and oceans, inside communities, through courtrooms, and into the heart of battles to survive against all odds.

Join award-winning environmentalist Natalie Kyriacou OAM as she speaks with science communicator Laura Wells about confronting the extinction crisis with courage and curiosity, charting a new course for nature and why it is so worth fighting for.
