Episodes

Chimpanzee Attack - Moe the Chimp Has a Really Weird Birthday 21.11.2020

Wes navigates the twists and turns of a story about a chimpanzee attack that should probably be made into a movie. Saint James rescues a baby chimp whose mother died at the hands of poachers, and he takes the little guy back to California to raise as his own. But this seemingly sweet, direct-to-TV Lifetime flick quickly devolves into more of a Planet of the Apes kind of situation. ~~ To advertise...

Mountain Lion Attack - Shannon Parker and the Desperate Cougar 15.11.2020

A young woman was on an innocent hike, but a mountain lion had other plans. Wes, unexpectedly, digs into the relationship drama aspect of this story, while Jeff outs himself as a prolific mountain lion spotter.  ~~ To advertise on the show, contact us! ~~ Tooth & Claw is brought to you by QCODE.

Great White Shark Attack - The 19-foot Shark and Rob Rebstock 07.11.2020

Black Bear Attacks - Allena Hansen and Old-Timey Yellowstone Lady 07.10.2020

Wes has two stories uncovering the dangers black bears pose to the unprepared. Thankfully, he and Jeff are able to share their knowledge on how to avoid an attack, or if you do end up having an encounter with one, how to fight back. Mike's ideas are a little more unorthodox and are thus discounted out of hand. ~~ To advertise on the show, contact us! ~~ Tooth & Claw is brought to you by QCODE. Sup...

Amur Tiger Attack - SF Zoo Chaos 30.09.2020

On Christmas day in 2007, the Amur Tiger Tatiana leapt from her enclosure at the San Francisco Zoo and attacked 3 young friends. Wes talks Jeff and Mike through the chaos, which ended very poorly for almost everyone involved. ~~ To advertise on the show, contact us! ~~ Tooth & Claw is brought to you by QCODE.
