Description

What's really going on behind the scenes in all those 'cute' videos of people interacting with their pet jaguars, tigers, leopards, and bears? Can people really get that kind of social media content without ever being injured? And are the animals really taken care of?In Part 1 of this episode, I sit down with wildlife ecologist and science communicator Sophiane Nacer (@HonkIfURHoary) to go over the extensive research she did on Single Vision Inc., the 'organization' behind the popular TikTok accounts SingleVision and  SafariSammie. We go over some of the abuse going on behind the scenes, and in Part 2 (which is available now on Patreon) we go over some criminal charges lingering over the organization and some deaths caused by a very similar 'organization'.You can read Sophiane's original Twitter thread here.Support the showSupport the show by shopping at www.getoutalivepodcast.com/shopFollow us on Instagram, Facebook, Tiktok, check out our website GetOutAlivePodcast.com and join us on Patreon (where you can now follow us for free)!You can find Ashley @TheAngryOlogist on Twitter

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.
