101 Reasons It’s a Horrible Idea to Keep an Exotic Animal as a Pet (w/ David Enden)
This week we explore 101 reasons it’s a horrible idea to keep an exotic animal as a pet. We brought David Enden back to discuss many topics inspired by Netflix’s documentary: Tiger King. That is to say, we watched Tiger King and thought about how stupid it would be to have an exotic animal as a pet. We’ll discuss a lot of big cats, but we’ll also talk bears, wolves, reptiles, etc. You don’t need to have watched Tiger King to enjoy this episode but it will help!
Every week on Stranger Still, we take the questions you’ve never questioned to ask and try to answer them. We want to make you laugh and teach you something interesting at the same time. So join us every Wednesday for another fun filled learn!
