Wes gives us all a glimpse into the horrors of killer whale captivity, particularly one mistreated orca and the unfortunate demise of three different people at his hands. Or fins.

Jeff takes over for the first Tooth and Claw mini, and has some incredibly bizarre, Hitchcock-ian stories to share about some persistent crows and other birds who have taken issue with humankind.

Wes takes us up to Glacier National Park to talk about another grizzly bear encounter, this time involving a man and his recently graduated daughter who decided to take a little trip up to Northern Montana together. The bear who attacked them probably didn't realize that this was a celebratory trip, otherwise it may have let their trespass into its territory slide.  ~~ To advertise on the show, contact us! ~~ Tooth & Claw is brought to you by QCODE.

A year-end special! Wes has a couple of animal attack stories that involve two of the greatest musical acts ever to come out of North America (can't fight the facts), and also brings to discussion the popular "Which animal would you pick to defend you?" meme that's been making the rounds online for a while now. ~~ To advertise on the show, contact us! ~~ Tooth & Claw is brought to you by QCODE.

Wes finally gets to talk about the polar bear, which, alongside literally every other, is his favorite animal. A small group of young campers head up to an archipelago off the northern coast of Norway, only to end up on the wrong end of the Arctic predator/prey dynamic. ~~ To advertise on the show, contact us! ~~ Tooth & Claw is brought to you by QCODE.
