Fifty editions. What a journey it has been.

When we first launched PT Explorers, we had a single intention: to create space for wild voices, both human and non-human. Today, as we reach our 50th issue, we’re reminded that passion, when shared, becomes purpose.

Over the years, this free magazine has become a meeting point: for photographers who wait hours for a perfect frame, for conservationists working quietly behind the scenes, for scientists who decode nature’s patterns, and for those who simply love the wild. We are grateful for every contributor, every reader, every story.

This milestone issue features 10 powerful articles, an intimate interview with a wildlife photographer, a conservation story that demands attention, a species spotlight, and a profile of a woman behind the lens. We celebrate a young talent in Cub’s Corner, recount a rare moment in the field, explore a travelogue rooted in wilderness, highlight an artist inspired by nature, and close with a gallery that speaks through silence and shadow.
