Animal Wise Radio guest Peter Wolf, blogger of VoxFelina.com will talk with hosts Mike and Beth about recurring characters that keep cycling through newspapers and t.v. interviews as the go-to experts for conversations about TNR.

How does a venerated name like Smithsonian continue to support people whose written positions seem without balance, filters, or consequence. As TNR grows, an approved method for free roaming cat colony management in communities across the U.S., we continue the conversation about why TNR works, and why the naysayers and their oft cited data must be questioned by the public.

We'll also talk big cats with Tammy Thies of the Wildcat Sanctuary in MN. There is always timely news to discuss about wild captive animals, and wildcatsnactuary.org is on the front lines of changing laws and conversation about wild exotics in captivity. Does breeding wild captive animals "save" a species? Tammy will weigh in on the question.

And Michael Mountain speaks about about Catholic theologian, Dr. Elizabeth Johnson's thoughts as they relate to penguins, religion and our human place in the natural order.
