Animal Kingdom I

Published: March 21, 2014, 4:23 a.m.

Animals play strange roles in our lives. Often, critters captivate those of us in the of the so-called dominant species. Our debut show includes four stories and a poem. Students search for salamanders in Stanford's Lake Lagunita. A scientist hatches a plan to "Re-wild" North America with endangered predators from Africa. Cats and Dogs inflict drama on couples who try to co-own them. Elephants may or may not have rescued tourists in Thailand, and Fireflies illuminate the soul in a poem by Troy Jollimore. Will animals captivate you this week? \n \nHost: Bonnie SwiftProducers: Bonnie Swift and Jonah Willihnganz \nFeaturing: Rebecca Jacobs and Kalani Leifer, Kate Youngman and Tom James, Tracy Shepard, Hilton Obenzinger, Troy Jollimore. \nMusic: Hunt Alcott, Ambika, Cem Durouz \nURL's: Hilton Obenzinger, Troy Jollimore. \n \nFeaturing: Hilton Obenzinger \n \n \nMore info at:http://web.stanford.edu/group/storytelling/cgi-bin/joomla/index.php/shows/season-1/155-episode-101.html
