SOUND UP! Our next podcast has just been released!
It's about progress being made to END the largest land slaughter of wild animals in the world. LISTEN NOW to Aussie documentary filmmakers Kate McIntyre Clere and Mick McIntyre (@kangaroosalive) and follow Calls to Action to save the gentle, slow-reproducing kangaroo from cruel extermination.
Podcast and actions available at sentientplanetpodcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Coming on Thursday, our final episode for Season 3. Guests Mick McIntyre and Kate McIntyre Clere come on the show to talk about a difficult topic – the commercial killing of wild kangaroos in Australia.
Mick and Kate are an Aussie filmmaking duo and the founders of @kangaroosalive. Back in 2018, they released a shocking and damning expose about Australia's secretive kangaroo killings – the largest slaughter of terrestrial wildlife that happens on the planet.
We talk about progress being made to end this cruel industry since the release of their film, "Kangaroo: A Love-Hate Story." It needs to happen soon, before the slow-breeding kangaroo is pushed to extinction.
The U.S. and Europe are the two main markets for kangaroo meat and skins, although most consumers don't realize their products are made from this beloved global icon.
Please LISTEN IN on Thursday, when we'll also provide Calls to Action on behalf of the gentle and utterly amazing kangaroo!
*REMINDER* *REMINDER* Our episode with Heartwood Haven (@heartwoodhaven) farmed animal rescuers Kate Tsyrklevich and Hope Hilman is LIVE!
Why don't we see as many roosters as female chickens? Sadly, the egg industry kills most male chicks as unwanted "byproduct." Others become meat and even end up in the cruel and illicit cockfighting industry.
Kate and Hope take in about 100 roosters from cockfighting busts in Washington State every year.

Our next podcast with popular Heartwood Haven (@heartwoodhaven) stewards Kate Tsyrklevich and Hope Hilman is available NOW!
LISTEN and follow CALLS TO ACTION at sentientplanetpodcast.com, or wherever you get your podcasts. Kate and Hope share what it's like to start a microsanctuary for farmed animals. Pigs and roosters are their favorite rescues! Many come from appalling conditions, including the illicit COCKFIGHTING industry. Yes, this CRUEL activity still happens in neighborhoods across the United States and the world.
Fortunately, animals such as Boris and Linus and Porter and Freddy DO recover and live healthy lives when removed from abusive and traumatic situations.
Microsanctuaries are a growing global movement!

We return this week with Kate Tsyrklevich and Hope Hilman, farmed animal rescuers and stewards of Heartwood Haven (@heartwoodhaven), in Gig Harbor, Washington State.
Pigs and roosters are their favorite rescues! Many of the hundreds they've saved come from appalling conditions, including the cruel and illicit cockfighting industry.
Microsanctuaries such as Heartwood Haven are springing up across the world to reset public misconceptions about farmed animals, whose lives are just as worthy as our much-revered dogs and cats.
Tune in on Thursday!

LISTEN NOW! Our interview with David Moskowitz is LIVE via sentientplanetpodcast.com, or wherever you get your podcasts.
David is a renowned nature photographer, wildlife biologist and tracker from the Pacific Northwest, USA – and perhaps the loudest defender of the highly endangered mountain caribou. Their herds have plummeted to just 1,100 individuals due to the ongoing clear-cutting of their old-growth home in British Columbia.
David helps us understand exactly what threatens this beautiful, elusive animal and how a combination of blockades, education, Tribal rights and community forests could bring them back from the brink.
