Customer Reviews
Definitely don't listen!
This show is way too funny, informative, and clever! I keep embarrassing myself by laughing suddenly in front of people when I'm listening to the show on my earphones. I'm also equipped with a greater understanding of what to do in a wildlife encounter! Who wants that kind of useless knowledge? I do.
10 CLAW PODCAST
Had to come over to apple just so I could write an actual review… but I’ve been a loyal Spotify listener for some time now. I really had to slow down on listening to episodes because I’m almost out 🥵 then I may have to sacrifice my fancy coffee for a subscription 😆
But really I love these guys and I love this podcast. There is so much character and so much heart in each episode. It’s so easy to get hooked. I used to listen to music on my commutes home after a bad day…. Not it’s straight to tooth and claw!
Thanks for being the best, and thanks for making me feel less scared in the wild (but still scared of grizzlies) 😂 LOVE YALL!

Funny, informative, and all around a good time!!
This is hands down my FAVORITE podcast of all time. These guys crack me up and I love learning new things about my favorite animals and what to do if something goes wrong. I will always recommend this podcast to everyone I meet so that we can all explore nature with respect for the critters of the world and interact with them safely and from a distance :)
My favorite episodes are the vampire bats & bees!! Normally I’m a fan of stories about larger animals like bears and tigers but these guys can make a story about a bunch of bees so incredibly interesting and informative!
