(john foley) i was there in chicago when bob barnett made the first commercial wireless phone call in 1983. yes, this is bob barnett in chicago. (john) we were both working on that first network that would eventually become verizon's. back then, the idea of a nationwide wireless network was completely unreasonable. but think about how important that first call was to our lives. it opened the door to the billions of mobile calls that we've all made in the last 34 years sometimes being first means being unreasonable. i'm proud i was part of that first call, and i'm proud that i'm here now as we build america's first and only 5g ultra wideband network

with unprecedented wireless capacity that will not only allow for phones to be connected, but almost everything-- transforming how we all live, once again. (bob barnett) as you know, this call today is the first call that we've made on the cellular system. >> whitaker: parts of the country ravaged by hurricane florence will slowly dry out and begin to clean up in the coming weeks. many communities in the carolinas hadn't yet recovered from hurricane matthew two years ago. the relentless cycle of

disaster, rebuild, repeat has many coastal residents feeling numb and helpless, and climate scientists say we can expect more frequent, more powerful storms in the future. we heard that the netherlands, one of the most flood-prone places in the world, almost never floods. holland is about twice the size of new jersey and is one of the world's most densely populated countries. much of it is below sea level. yet, the dutch don't bother with flood insurance. they don't need it. as the u.s. cleans up from hurricane florence, we were wondering, do the dutch have a solution? it was a disaster that unfolded in slow motion-- for four days, hurricane florence crawled up the east coast, dumping record rainfall-- more than 35 inches in north carolina-- flooding thousands of homes and taking dozens of lives.

the destruction from hurricanes katrina, sandy, harvey, and maria cost hundreds of billions of dollars. florence is another chapter in a story we know all too well. we met a dutchman, henk ovink, who says it's time to rewrite america's disaster playbook entirely. >> henk ovink: and there's only one opportunity. that is when a disaster hits. it's like a x-ray. it tells you where all your vulnerabilities are and gives you the opportunity to step up and say, "we can do better." >> whitaker: ovink is the world's only water ambassador, a role given to him by the dutch government. >> ovink: we need to take action now. >> whitaker: he advises the u.n., 35 individual countries, and a dozen u.s. cities. he travels the globe like a missionary, preaching the gospel of flood prevention. >> ovink: this is your house? >> woman: yes, this is my house. >> whitaker: one of his latest

recovering from hurricane harvey. so what's the biggest challenge in the united states? >> ovink: you're solution- oriented. you have a collective. when things happen, you come together. you want to build back-- and repair-- and be ready-- when disastrous things happen. but there's not so much a belief that you can actually prevent a disaster from happening. >> whitaker: but how do you go about preventing a disaster, like katrina, harvey, sandy? it-- it just doesn't seem possible. >> ovink: we can't prevent them from happening. but the impact that is caused by these disasters, we can decrease by preparing ourselves. i think the catastrophes we see in the world are all man-made. the storms are perhaps man- caused, and you can debate that. but the catastrophes because of the storms? those are man-made. >> whitaker: it's a radical statement.

we went with him to the netherlands to learn what shaped his thinking. it's water. water is everywhere in this country known for its charming canals, picturesque dikes and windmills. but they're not just quaint tourist attractions. for centuries, the canals and dikes have held back water. the windmills pump it away. ovink took us up in a helicopter so we could see it from above. from what i can see here, it looks as though the entire country is man-engineered. >> ovink: yes. >> whitaker: we flew over rotterdam, his hometown, so he could show us how the country has been engineered. how much of this city is below sea level? >> ovink: almost everything. >> whitaker: when was the last time this flooded? >> ovink: this doesn't flood. and we-- >> whitaker: because of the precautions you have taken? >> ovink: yeah. >> whitaker: the dutch allocate more than a billion dollars a

year to manage their flood infrastructure. some of it is massive, like the maeslantkering storm surge barrier. these are the gates. >> ovink: right, they're big. >> whitaker: they're enormous. o tower, like the paris eiffel tower, on its sides. but then, two. >> whitaker: each one the size of the eiffel tower. >> ovink: each one. >> whitaker: the gates guard one of the largest ports in the world, and most of the dutch population. they don't have hurricanes like we do, but ferocious storms with hurricane-force winds can blow in from the north sea and push in huge storm surges. when that happens, the two arms seal off the rhine river and rotterdam. the gates took six years to build and cost $500 million. that's a big investment for something that you've only had to use once or twice since it was built. >> ovink: $150 billion were lost in new orleans.

i don't think i need to say more. how many people were killed? sandy, another storm, $70 billion. we don't have those damages. >> whitaker: but they did in the past. your katrina moment was in 1953? >> ovink: '53. yeah. '53 was our real wake-up call. a storm blowing in from over the north sea, from the west. >> whitaker: what happened? >> ovink: it actually swallowed the southwestern part of the netherlands. the dams, dikes and levees brokg lives of alst 2,000 people. a lot of families were ripped apart. >> whitaker: the dutch still refer to it as "the" disaster-- because they haven't had one since. not a single death from flooding in 65 years. they've learned the lessons of the past well. dutch engineers calculate how high and strong dikes and dams

must be to withstand the most extreme weather, a one-in-10,000 storm. rotterdam is at the forefront of defensive design. this basketball court can hold 450,000 gallons of storm runoff. this sloping park atop a shopping center is a storm surge barrier. and this world-class rowing facility doubles as a flood reservoir. the dutch pride themselves on blending form and function. so what is this place? these look like dunes. >> ovink: they are dunes. >> whitaker: but, i take it, this is the netherlands, so these aren't just dunes. >> ovink: no, these are man-made dunes. >> whitaker: henk ovink took us to one of his favorite projects along the north sea. the beach town of katwijk was vulnerable, until dutch engineers created these natural- looking dunes. many beaches in the u.s. have

man-made dunes, but they're nothing like this. and these dunes protect the town from a sea surge or a big storm? >> ovink: sea surge, storm, and also we incorporate sea level rise of the future. >> whitaker: they also integrated urban planning. to unclog katwijk's streets when tourists flock to the beach, and to raise the height of the dunes to 25 feet above sea level, engineers built a parking garage... under the dunes? >> ovink: under the dunes. >> whitaker: so under this whole stretch is-- it looks like, i don't know, several football fields. >> ovink: yes. >> whitaker: under all of this is a parking garage. >> ovink: is a parking garage. almost 700 cars can park here. >> whitaker: could a structure like this have saved new jersey beach communities from sandy? >> ovink: yes. it could. >> whitaker: you might call the netherlands the storm drain of europe. several major rivers empty here.

when france and germany flooded like this two years ago, most of that water ended up in the netherlands, but towns and cities in holland weren't inundated, largely because of something the dutch are doing that defies logic. they're lowering dikes and dams along some rivers. >> ovink: rivers are living elements in a landscape, and they become bigger when there is more water and become smaller when there's less, and they need to have that capacity. >> whitaker: so you went from flood control to controlled flooding. >> ovink: yeah. >> whitaker: you have to let some places flood so you can keep other places dry? >> ovink: yeah. >> whitaker: the dutch call it "room for the river."d use was? >> vic gremmer: yeah. >> whitaker: vic gremmer, a social worker in the village of werkendam, personally had to make room for the merwede river. hundreds of people like him had

to move so their property could be used as floodplains. so the government comes and asks you to leave. did you have a choice? >> gremmer: not really. we-- we had a choice-- to leave, or stay, but on their conditions. >> whitaker: the conditions: he could remain in the area, but had to sell the family home to the government. he used the money to build a new house on higher ground. what'd you think of that, when they tore your house down? >> gremmer: the old house, there are 25 years of memories. it's really the end of-- i'm getting emotional. ( laughs ) >> whitaker: but he said he did it for the greater good. allowing the swollen river to pool in this new floodplain could save thousands of people from flooding downstream in rotterdam. the idea of moving people out of the floodplains in the u.s., we'd be talking about millions

of people. that would be a really tough sell. >> ovink: you pay for people to be in the most vulnerable places of your country. there's a national flood insurance program that is going bankrupt. you pay disaster bills every year. and the rebuilding, it's costing a lot of money. it's wasted. >> whitaker: that waste seems built in to our disaster d.n.a. in the u.s., fema deals with natural disasters. its primary mission is not to prevent, but to respond. fema helps disaster victims build back, usually the same structure, in the same place. >> dawn zimmer: people's apartments were flooded, people's businesses, our critical infrastructure, all of our substations. so we had no power. >> whitaker: dawn zimmer was mayor of hoboken, new jersey when hurricane sandy hit, six years ago. she told us the city of 55,000 people, right across the hudson river from manhattan, was almost

entirely underwater. in some neighborhoods, ten feet of water? >> zimmer: ten feet of water, yes. and there was fish in people's apartments. it was waste. it was oil. it was a toxic mix in our city. >> whitaker: she said hoboken got money from fema to put things back pretty much the way they were, but she wanted to rebuild smarter. >> dawn zimmer: it doesn't help for me to have a fire station that is individually protected, but there's water all around it. that fire station won't be able to help anyone in the middle of a storm. it just doesn't make sense. >> whitaker: so why can't you just get the money and use it as you see best? >> dawn zimmer: that's just not the way it works. >> whitaker: she says that's when henk ovink entered the picture. shaun donovan, then-secretary of housing and urban development, tapped ovink for president obama's hurricane sandy task force.the uthn idea an international design competition to fix what sandy

had destroyed, following the dutch philosophy: rebuild differently for the future. ovink helped convince the federal government to cough up almost a billion dollars for it. >> whitaker: you know, in the u.s., that sounds kind of crazy. >> ovink: yeah. >> whitaker: $1 billion for a competition to rebuild? something like that had never been done before? >> ovink: never been done in this capacity. so, they also had to believe my blue eyes and my story. and saying, "okay, we believe this young man coming from the netherlands. let's work with him." >> whitaker: a proposal that will protect hoboken and its neighbors was awarded $230 million of the competition money. a dutch design team came up with the winning plans-- with a dutch twist: a storm surge defense disguised as a park, with a boathouse. benches, and outdoor seating as barriers to keep the hudson from drowning the city again. coming up with the plan was the easy part-- convincing residents

to go along was much harder. >> zimmer: there were people that were calling out, like, "give back the money." >> whitaker: so let me get this clear, that even after the devastation of sandy, people were not convinced that they needed flood protection? >> zimmer: people are really concerned, for example, about their property values. what would the property values of hoboken be if we're flooded on a regular basis and our entire city is destroyed? >> whitaker: after consulting with the community, the plans were amended, and most residents got on board. hoboken plans to break ground next year. it could be the first test for ovink's vision in the u.s. >> zimmer: it's going to move forward, and i'm very confident that when that next storm hits-- because it's going to hit. it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when. and we will be prepared, and we will be a model to show that this approach can work. >> ovink: it's a choice in the end. it's a human choice. we can think about that future

>> kroft: this past month, senator orrin hatch asked the federal trade commission to investigate google for possible violations of anti-trust law and anti-competitive business practices, in part because of this story we aired last may. his request comes amid a flurry of high-profile congressional hearings on the enormous, largely-unchecked power accumulated by tech giants like facebook, amazon, and google over the last two decades.

of the three, google, which is part of a holding company called alphabet, is the most powerful, intriguing, and omnipresent in our lives. this is how it came to be. most people love google. it's changed our world, insinuated itself in our lives, made itself indispensable. you probably don't even have to type google.com into your computer-- it's often the default setting, a competitive advantage google paid billions of dollars for. no worry. google is worth more than three-quarters of a trillion dollars right now, and you don't get that big by accident. since going public in 2004, google has acquired more than 200 companies, expanding its reach across the internet. it bought youtube, the biggest video platform. it bought android, the operating system that runs 80% of the world's smart phones, and it bought doubleclick, which distributes much of the world's

digital advertising. all of this barely raising an eyebrow with regulators in washington. were any of those acquisitions questioned by the anti-trust division of the justice department? >> gary reback: some were investigated, but only superficially. the government just really isn't enforcing our anti-trust laws. and that's what's happened. none of these acquisitions have been challenged. >> kroft: gary reback is one of the most prominent anti-trust lawyers in the country, widely credited with persuading the justice department to sue microsoft back in the '90s, the last major anti-trust case against big tech. now, he's battling google. you think google's a monopoly? >> reback: oh, yes, of course google's a monopoly. in fact, they are a monopoly in several markets. they're a monopoly in search. they're a monopoly in search advertising. >> kroft: those technologies are less than 25 years old, and may seem small compared to the industrial monopolies like

railroads and standard oil a century ago, but reback says there's nothing small about google. >> reback: google makes the internet work. the internet would not be accessible to us without a search engine. >> kroft: and they control it. >> reback: they control access to it. that's the important part. google is the gate keeper for-- for the world wide web, for the internet as we know it. it is every bit as important today as petroleum was when john d. rockefeller was monopolizing that. >> kroft: last year, google conducted 90% of the world's internet searches. when billions of people asked trillions of questions, it was google that provided the answers, using computer algorithms known only to google. >> jonathan taplin: they have this phrase they use, "competition is just a click away." they have no competition. bing, their competition, has 2% of the market. they have 90%.

>> kroft: jonathan taplin is a digital media expert and director emeritus of the annenberg innovation lab at the university of southern california. he says google's expertise may be technology, but its business is advertising. and, its most valuable commodity is highly specialized information about us. it's helped google control roughly 60% of worldwide advertising revenue on the internet. taplin says traditional companies can't compete because they don't have the data. >> taplin: they know who you are, where you are, what you just bought, what you might want to buy. and so, if i'm an advertiser and i say, "i want 24--o in nashville, tennessee who drive trucks and drink bourbon," i can do that, on google. >> reback: people tell their search engines things they wouldn't even tell their wives. i mean, it's a very powerful and

yet very intimate technology. and that gives the company that controls it a mind-boggling degree of control over our entire society. >> kroft: google is so dominant in search and search advertising that analysts and venture capitalists in silicon valley say it's extremely difficult for start-ups to get funding if their business model requires them to compete with google for ad revenue. jeremy stoppelman co-founded yelp more than a decade ago, a website that collects local reviews on everything from auto mechanics to restaurants nationwide, and makes money selling ads. >> jeremy stoppelman: the initial promise of google was to organize the world's information, and ultimately, that manifested itself in you expecting that the top links, the things that it shows at the top of that page, are the best from around the web. the best that the world has to offer. and i could tell you that is not the case. that is not the case anymore.

>> kroft: instead of doing what's best for consumers, stoppelman says google is doing what's best for google. >> stoppelman: if i were starting out today, i would have no shot of building yelp. that opportunity has been closed off by google and their approach. >> kroft: in what way? >> stoppelman: because if you provide great content in one of these categories that is lucrative to google, and seen as potentially threatening, they will snuff you out. >> kroft: what do you mean, "snuff you out?" >> stoppelman: they will make you disappear. they will bury you. >> kroft: yelp and countless other sites depend on google to bring them web traffic-- eyeballs for their advertisers. but now, stoppelman says, their biggest competitor in the most lucrative markets is google. he says it's collecting and bundling its own information on things like shopping and travel and putting it at the very top of the search results, regardless of whether it belongs there on merit. he showed us how it worked by googling "sushi san francisco." >> stoppelman: all the prime real estate is here. this is where the consumer,

their eye focuses. and that's by design; google wants you to pay attention to their content. >> kroft: all of the information here is owned by google, from the maps to the reviews. stoppelman says if you click on any of these links at the top of the page, you may think you've gone to another website, but in fact you will still be on google, seeing what it wants you to see while it collects your personal information and maybe exposes you to google advertising. if you click anything inside this box, you stay on google and they make more money? >> stoppelman: that's right. >> kroft: google told us it doesn't have anything to do with money. it's about improving its product by making searches quicker and easier for its customers by eliminating the need to click through lots of other sites. stoppelman says it's about stifling competition, pushing it down the page where it's less likely to be seen. the advantage, he says, is even more striking if you look at the search results on a smart phone.

>> stoppelman: this is exactly what your phone would look like in the palm of your hand. this is all of google's own property, right here. it takes up the entire screen. >> kroft: how important is that first page? >> stoppelman: it's not even just the first page. it's the first few links on the page, is the vast majority of where user attention goes, and where the traffic flows. >> kroft: so if you're not at the top of the page or at the bottom of the first page, or on the second page, that's going to affect your business? >> stoppelman: yeah, if you're on the second page, forget it. you're not a real business. >> kroft: yelp, microsoft, amazon, ebay, expedia, and yahoo all complained about google's dominance, and what they called its "anti-competitive behavior," to the federal trade commission, which in 2011 conducted an investigation. according to this confidential memo-- parts of which were inadvertently given to the "wall street journal" years later-- the f.t.c.'s bureau of competition had recommended that an anti-trust lawsuit be filed against google for some of its business practices. it said, "google is in the

unique position of being able to 'make or break any web-based business'" and "has strengthened its monopolies over search and search advertising through anti- competitive means" and "forestalled competitors and would-be competitors' ability to challenge those monopolies." it specifically cited google for stealing competitors' content, and imposing restrictions on advertisers and other websites that limited their ability to utilize other search engines. but, the recommendations were rejected. >> reback: it flatly says that google's conduct was anti- competitive. it flatly says that google's conduct hurt consumers. i mean, what else would you need to know to vote out a complaint? there it is, written by your own staff. and yet, nothing happened. >> kroft: they closed the case? >> reback: they closed the case. correct. >> kroft: the f.t.c.'s commissioners decided that google's conduct could be addressed with voluntary improvements to some of its business practices, and that

google's decision to move its own products to the top of the search page could plausibly be of benefit to consumers. but reback and others who were directly involved in the investigation have long suspected that the outcome had something to do with google's political muscle in washington, and its close relationship with the obama administration. google spent more money on lobbying last year than any other corporation, employing 25 different firms and helping fund 300 trade associations, think tanks and other groups, many of which influence policy. >> reback: they have a seat at the table in every discussion that, that implicates this issue at all. they know about developments that we never even hear about. so their influence, from my perspective, is very, very difficult to challenge. >> kroft: until now, the only one taking aggressive action against google and big tech is

margrethe vestager, the competition commissioner for the european union. vestager has become a thorn in the side of silicon valley, fining facebook $122 million for a merger violation, and ordering ireland to recover $15 billion in taxes owed by apple. last year, she levied a $2.7 billion fine against google for depriving certain competitors of a chance to compete with them. >> margrethe vestager: just as well as i admire some of the innovation by google over the last decade, well, i want their illegal behavior to stop. >> kroft: and that's what you feel has gone on. >> vestager: not only do we feel it, we mean that we can prove it. >> kroft: in researching the case, vestager says her staff went through 1.7 billion google search queries and found that google was manipulating its secret search formulas, or algorithms, to promote its own products and services and sending its competitors into oblivion.

>> vestager: it's very difficult to find the rivals. because on average, you'd find them only on page four in your search results. >> kroft: and why so far down? >> vestager: well, because then you don't find them. i don't-- i don't know anyone who goes to page four in their search results. the-- jokingly, you could say that this is where you should keep your secrets, because no one ever comes there. >> kroft: do you think this has been deliberate on google's part? >> vestager: yes, we think that this is done on purpose. >> kroft: how do they do it? i think everybody has this idea that google has this algorithm, and they put the best searches right at the top. >> vestager: well, it is exactly the algorithm that does it. both the-- the promotion of google themselves, and the demotion of others. >> kroft: so, they're rigging the game. >> vestager: yes, and it is illegal. >> kroft: google has pits $2.7 billion fine and is aggressively appealing the decision. but for now, stoppelman says everyone is still playing by google's rules. if you're in business, you have to be on google. >> stoppelman: yeah. google wields enormous power across the industry, and they set the rules. the question is, who's watching

google? >> kroft: since the story aired in may, the european union has levied another record fine against google-- this one $5 billion-- for anti-competitive practices involving its android mobile software. google declined our request for an interview with one of its top executives. it has also declined to make them available to testify at hearings before congress. in a written response to our questions, the company denied it was a monopoly in search or search advertising, citing many competitors, including amazon and facebook. it says it does not make changes to its algorithm to disadvantage competitors, and that "our responsibility is to deliver the best results possible to our users, not specific placements for sites within our results. we understand that those sites whose ranking falls will be unhappy and may complain publicly."

on most mornings for nearly 50 years, this is what tom mangelsen has done. he's ventured into the wilderness, camera in hand. last september, in grand teton national park in wyoming, he waited in an early autumn snowfall for his subject to appear. ( sighs ) as is often the case, it took quite a while. over the course of your lifetime, the amount of time that you've spent waiting is incalculable, i'm sure. >> tom mangelsen: stupid. >> cooper: stupid? >> mangelsen: yeah. >> cooper: have you learned anything with all that waiting? >> mangelsen: you wait long enough, it does pay off. >> cooper: for mangelsen, it usually does, whether it's a male grizzly bear with battle scars, a cheetah chasing downia of a giant caiman in brazil. each of mangelsen's photographs tells a story. his images have documented species like mountain gorillas, black rhinos and jaguars-- once dominant, now in danger.

on every continent, in every season, no matter the conditions, mangelsen has painstakingly built a reputation, not on personality, but on patience. do you have patience with people the same way you have patience with animals? >> mangelsen: no. ( laughter ) >> cooper: no? >> mangelsen: no, i don't. i wish i did. i-- no, i don't. >> cooper: do you like animals more than people? >> mangelsen: yes. >> cooper: really? >> mangelsen: well, not you. >> cooper: okay. he especially likes the dangerous kind. in a jungle in india, where it would be deadly to be on foot, mangelsen climbed onto an elephant's back for this shot of a bengal tiger, paws red, fresh from a kill. in the arctic, where temperatures can be 30 degrees below zero, he's spent years documenting the behavior of polar bears. he nicknamed this group "the bad boys of the arctic." he's captured adult male bears play-fighting, a mama bear slyly keeping watch as her cubs roughhouse nearby, and a group of bears trying to survive as

their world melts away. people often mistake mangelsen's photographs for paintings, and since the 1970s, he's sold them out of galleries, like this one in jackson, wyoming. his photo, "catch of the day," is often called "the most famous wildlife photograph in the world." it's such an extraordinary image. in this day and age, people would think that this is photoshopped, that-- that you got a photo of a fish somewhere and, i mean, it's so perfect. >> mangelsen: it was taken in 1988, before photoshop even existed. >> cooper: people think it's a fake-- >> mangelsen: --think it's just faked. >> cooper: but you don't, you don't believe in that? i mean, as a photographer? >> mangelsen: no! that's, this is the magic. this is the moment. this is the decisive moment, and this little tiny space right here i think is so important. just that, you know, quarter of an inch. >> cooper: it's in its mouth, but it hasn't actually made contact yet with its mouth? >> mangelsen: one nanosecond later... ( chomps ) >> cooper: mangelsen shuns the use of digital manipulation. what he sees through his lens is what you get. and at a time when many photographers build their portfolios by going to game

farms like this one to photograph captive animals, mangelsen insists on only documenting them in their natural habitat... >> mangelsen: okay, anderson, let's see what we can find. >> cooper: ...as we saw when we joined him before dawn outside jackson hole. you always get up this early? >> mangelsen: there is only one way to do it, is, i do it every day. or be really lucky. >> cooper: he's taking us to a bend he knows on the snake river. >> mangelsen: do you hear the elk? it's a sharp whistle. ( elk whistle ) >> cooper: that's it? >> mangelsen: yeah, that's the sound of the wild here. >> cooper: he's been here hundreds of times, trying to get the perfect shot of elk crossing the water. so now it's just waiting? a waiting game? >> mangelsen: waiting, yeah. >> cooper: what's the longest you've ever spent in any spot? not here, but anywhere?

>> mangelsen: 42 days with the cougars. >> cooper: 42 days? >> mangelsen: well, i went home at night and slept, and then would go back at daybreak. >> cooper: but you would spend all day there? >> mangelsen: yeah. >> cooper: so, 12 hours a day? >> mangelsen: 12 or 14. >> cooper: 12 or 14 hours a day for 42 days? >> mangelsen: yeah. >> cooper: did you get the shot? >> mangelsen: finally. >> cooper: this was the shot worth waiting for-- the elusive cougar coming out of her den at dusk. taken in 1999, it's among the first photographs to document the life of a wild, female cougar. it helped launch a movement to protect the cats against human encroachment. back at the river, after a three-hour wait... >> mangelsen: there, right between the trees. >> cooper: yeah, yeah, yeah! >> mangelsen: there she comes. >> cooper: yeah. ( camera clicking ) >> mangelsen: well, that was... >> cooper: that was cool. >> mangelsen: ...pretty cool.

>> cooper: that was great. that was worth the wait. >> mangelsen: yeah. >> cooper: it's just kind of extraordinary. we headed back to his office in jackson to take a look at an amateur's attempt. >> mangelsen: i think it's beautiful. >> cooper: all right. >> mangelsen: i think it's gorgeous. >> cooper: yeah, i think-- yeah, me too, actually. >> mangelsen: there's nothing wrong with that one at all. it's great. >> cooper: is she out of focus? >> mangelsen: maybe slightly. let's see. yup, not quite sharp. i'm sorry. >> cooper: mangelsen's shot was, of course, in perfect focus. and look at what else he has captured at that same river in fall, summer, and winter. mangelsen credits his father with his love of the wild. he grew up on the bank of the platte river in nebraska, where he was schooled in hunting and fishing. as a teenager in the 1960s, t t, "world champion goose caller." no small feat, considering this is bird country, home to 400

species, as well as one of the great migrations on earth. every spring, half a million sandhill cranes stop on this stretch of the platte river. they're fattening up on grain before migrating north, as far as siberia. it is an awesome and ancient ritual. fossils show cranes have come here for nearly ten million years. it's a spectacle of sight and sound mangelsen has shared for 17 years with his friend and ally, jane goodall, whose life's work with chimpanzees has revolutionized our understanding of primates. today, goodall and mangelsen team up to raise money and awareness for the protection of cranes, as well as chimpanzees and cougars. >> jane goodall: he's taught me so much about the platte river and what goes on here, and what it was like when he was a boy, and how he started off as a hunter because that's what one did, and then how, gradually, he realized he loved these, these

creatures much too much, he couldn't go on being a hunter. and so he hunts with his camera. here they come. lots and lots and lots. >> mangelsen: look at the light on those up there. >> goodall: what's amazing is this ancient migration still carries on. and i think it's completely amazing. >> mangelsen: i agree. >> goodall: it gives me hope that nature will manage in spite of us. >> mangelsen: oh, look at this. beautiful, huh? ( camera clicking ) >> goodall: next year, do you think you can invest in a silent camera? >> mangelsen: ( laughs ) >> goodall: one of the qualities that i love about tom is his passion. and it's when you have that kind of passion and that kind of commitment that you're more likely to get other people involved. because, it, we can never win an argument by appealing to people's heads. it's got to be in the heart.

and i use the power of storytelling and writing, and tom uses the power of images. >> cooper: if all artists have a muse, tom mangelsen's is this 22-year-old female grizzly bear. she doesn't have a proper name, but is known by the research number 399. a creature from america's wild past, when 50,000 grizzlies roamed the lower 48-- less than 2,000 grizzlies remain today. for more than a decade, mangelsen has chronicled every facet of 399's life: emerging from a long winter's nap; swatting magpies away from a meal. he has watched and worried as she's given birth to three sets of triplets and a set of twins. she's nursed, protected and taught more than a dozen bear cubs. mangelsen's photographs, including this one he dubbed "an icon of motherhood," have made 399 the most famous grizzly in the world. what do you think it is about

grizzly bears that so captures people's imagination? >> mangelsen: i think it's the wildness and the rarity. and then you see how intelligent they are. you know, it's like, 399, she'll go to the road and she'll look both ways. she'll tell the kids to stay on one side of the road. she'll go across, and then she'll talk to them. "okay, you can come across now." i mean, that's smart. >> cooper: there's also something about grizzly bears. there's a grace to it, but ferocity is, is always lurking there. >> mangelsen: but i like that idea, that we're not the top of the food chain. >> cooper: in mangelsen's portraits, ferocious grizzlies have personalities, too. but sometimes, it's easy to miss the details. notice a leftover piece of grass tucked in the corner of this grizzly's mouth, like a toothpick. but it's mangelsen's wide shots that may matter the most. they help people understand, animals like 399 can't survive without their habitat. mangelsen took us out to show us why he believes seeing your first grizzly can change your life. it's right there.

>> mangelsen: it's right there. >> cooper: oh, okay. so it's really close. it was an adult female grizzly, resting just off the road. that's crazy. ( camera clicking ) >> mangelsen: she's a gorgeous bear. now, you see how she just, like, just scratched the back of her ear, like your dog might? >> cooper: yeah. ( camera clicks ) >> mangelsen: isn't that great? now she's scratching her belly. >> cooper: it's so incredible to see. it's amazing. a third of 399's offspring have been killed in interactions with humans-- hit by cars or shot by elk hunters out of fear. last year, the grizzlies around yellowstone were removed from the endangered species list, but planned hunts in wyoming and idaho are on hold while a judge decides if the bears should remain protected. >> mangelsen: there's people here who have said that they can't wait for a season to open so they can shoot 399, because that would be the biggest prize, the biggest trophy. >> cooper: you've had hunters actually say that to you? that they want to shoot 399? >> mangelsen: uh-huh. >> cooper: because 399 is so famous? >> mangelsen: yeah. hard, hard to believe.

>> cooper: while he worries about what will be lost, tom mangelsen is determined to show us the beauty and fragility of what still survives. and so, he sets out once again, patiently making his way, alone, into the wild. >> mangelsen: it's my gift, in a way, that i can give people, hopefully, to preserve what we have left, to preserve wilderness, to preserve species like grizzly bears, and make them think about it. and make them think that this is what we need to save for our children. >> jane goodall reveals her favorite animal, and it's not what you think. go to 60minutesovertime.com. sponsored by ibranze. ♪ carla is living with metastatic breast cancer, which is breast
