Summary
Have you ever watched a nature documentary in which a wild animal was filmed struggling for survival? Maybe running from a predator, desperately foraging for food or braving bad weather. What if I told you that we had a moral imperative to help that animal? To help all wildlife creatures. To play an active role in their welfare, even when their sufferings are not traced back to us. There is an organization called Wild Animal Initiative that studies this very question. Their communication director, Cat Kerr, joined me to talk about the implications of that revolutionary idea. We discussed how Wild Animal Initiative's work could be a cure for vegan misanthropy, the deadly risks of feeding birds, my awesome story of squirrel rescue, contraception for rodents, and much more. Wild Animal Initiative is one of the ten Animal Charity Evaluators recommended charities. I committed to interviewing every charity on that golden list, because I am really curious to learn who is behind the most effective efforts to advance the cause of animal rights.
