62 Humans & Animals: Old Tom the Orca / The Wolfman of Sierra Morena

Idiots Talk History

We turn our attention to two very different stories this week. Both however are linked via a common thread: humans’ interactions with animals.

Lorna tells the tale of Old Tom, the orca who actually helped hunters catch whales in the port of Eden, Australia.
Matt then reports on the so-called Wolfman of Sierra Morena. A young boy left in the wild to fend for himself, found himself befriended by wolves and snakes.

As always we spout a whole host of nonsense intermittently. A main task for this week was creating fitting nicknames.
