This week on NaturallyScott, Scott Harris is joined by Lynn Scarlett—former Deputy Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Interior, lifelong conservationist, and a woman with stories as wild as the places she’s worked.

In this episode, Lynn shares:

  • What it’s like to lie in the sand at night collecting eggs from a leatherback turtle
  • The awe of standing on Midway Island, surrounded by hundreds of thousands of albatross
  • A surreal moment sitting on an alligator’s head
  • Reflections on being eighth in line to the U.S. presidency
  • Her leadership role in shaping America’s nearly 600 National Wildlife Refuges

From sea turtles to national parks, Lynn’s journey blends field science, public service, and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
