Ep. 890: Riding Wild Mustangs from Mexico to Canada - Ben Masters

Wildlife filmmaking: Ben Masters' path from Texas A&M wildlife biology to founding Fin and Fur Films, producing Unbranded (riding wild mustangs Mexico to Canada), authoring two books, writing for National Geographic, and creating Deep in the Heart – a stunning celebration of Texas wilderness, wildlife diversity, conservation, and recovery.

Ben Masters is a filmmaker and writer specializing in wildlife and adventure stories. He is most known for producing Unbranded (Mountainfilm 2015 Audience Award Winner), a coming of age film about riding wild mustangs from Mexico to Canada. Masters studied wildlife biology at Texas A&M University and founded Fin and Fur Films in 2015. He is the author of two books published by Texas A&M University Press and has written for National Geographic and Western Horseman. A proud Texan, Masters loves riding a good horse through new country, filming wildlife stories that haven’t been documented before, and using movies to help conserve wildlife and wild places.

His most recent film, Deep in the Heart, is “a love letter to Texas”. It’s a visually stunning film celebrating the vast diversity of wilderness and wildlife in Texas. The story follows the relationship with the natural world and showcases our ability to destroy, conserve, and recover wildlife and the habitat we mutually depend on.
