Description

As a continuation (kind of) to last week's episode, this week Ashley and Nick tell the story of Ian O'Reilly, who spent 10 minutes strangling a coyote to death after it tried to attack his son. This launches us into a long conversation about rabies - how is rabies spread? What animals get rabies? How can we protect ourselves against it? We also give a tad more history on coyotes, including how mange was purposefully spread to the western U.S. just in an attempt to eradicate coyotes.Follow us on Instagram,  Facebook, and check out our website GetOutAlivePodcast.com and join us on Patreon!You can find Ashley at TheAngryOlogist on Twitter and Nick is an enigma. Thanks for listening!Disclaimer: This is not professional advice; Follow at your own risk.Support the show

Join wildlife biologist and host Ashley Bray and her best friend/co-host Nick every other week as they explore the causes of different animal attack stories throughout the ages.In her career, Ashley has noticed the growing need for honest conversations around human-wildlife conflict, and decided to make this podcast with her best friend to get at the truth of how dangerous the animals we live alongside really are, and what we can do to not only protect ourselves from these animals, but save the animals from being hurt by us too. They are occasionally joined by expert biologists and attack survivors to get more insight into why an attack happened, how it could have been avoided (if possible), and the problems certain species are facing that could drive conflicts.
