Around the world, on a daily basis (& sometimes to the greatest of extremes) animals, both domestic & wild, are used for human's benefit, but, do we ever stop & think about how we use the, why we use them, should we use them or are we doing it in the right way? Vet & naturalist Alick Simmons joins us this week to discuss this very topic & how he refers to this in his new book, Treated Like Animals.  If you'd like to keep up to date with Alick, then you can follow her on social media @AlickSimmons To follow us on social media visit @intothewildpod for Twitter & @intothewildpodcast for Instagram.
