In this episode, Curtis and Mark are joined by Jeff Senger star of the From the Wild series. The crew talks about the ethics and philosophy of killing. Jeff covers running a small family business slaughterhouse in Alberta and the care that goes into treating animals humanely. The varied topics that the guys talk cover include the dichotomy between nature's way of killing and human-caused death, killing in an abattoir versus hunting, centre of mass versus brain shots, whose perspective is humane death seen from, killing fish versus killing animals, whether nature needs the gruesome deaths as a precursor to evolution, rifle calibers, shooting, bullets, nature is metal, coyote Afghan blanket as a work in progress, why vegans should be vegans, what deer think when they see a hunter, active shooter POV in beaver hunting, and if you were a bear, whether you want Jeff to shoot you with a bow or a rifle.

Brought to you by Community-Minded Alpine Toyota

In this episode, Curtis and Mark are joined by Mateen Hessami, Dr. Adam Ford, Matt Besko, and Dr. Lee Foote. Mateen and Adam are co-authors of a new paper titled Indigenizing the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation. Matten and Adam walk through each of the seven tenets of the North American Model and explain how and why they modified the tenants to be more inclusive and better reflect Indigenous values in contemporary wildlife management. Matt and Lee wield their years of experience to further break down the North American Model and the challenges it has created due to the nature of the model’s colonial history.
