When confined animals trample their trainers or escape from their cages, are they accidents? Or are they resisting? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with Jason Hribal, author of Fear of the Animal Planet: The Hidden History of Animal Resistance. He argues that confined animals rebel with intent and purpose on a daily basis. Chimps escape their cages, circus elephants attack their trainers, tigers refuse to perform. Is this evidence of organized resistance? Is there a difference between human and animal resistance? It's Your Call with me, Rose Aguilar, and you.
Guests:
Jason Hribal, author of Fear of the Animal Planet: The Hidden History of Animal Resistance
Colleen Kinzey, general curator at the Oakland Zoo
