On this episode we are joined by Dr. Ashley Dumas again and she explains the fascinating story of when Hernando de Soto’s expedition met the Mobilian people in October 1540 at the Battle of Mabila in present-day Alabama. This violent clash—triggered by a hostage standoff with Chief Tuskaloosa—led to the destruction of the palisaded town and remains one of the largest, bloodiest battles fought on North American soil. As Gamekeepers, we love the land and this story intertwines over much of the South. Their survival and dependence on wildlife speaks to the abundance that was once here. She expertly tells the story.
Listen, Learn and Enjoy.
