Protego Cast Season 2 Episode 11 - "Pest" Control with Tylor Starr!
In this week’s episode, Ali and Emma are joined by The Protego Foundation’s Founder and ProtegoCast Season 1 host, Tylor Starr, to discuss forms of “pest” control in the wizarding world and how we can advocate for safer, less harmful ways of deterring and removing animal visitors and little critters from our homes.    Also in this episode:    What is a “pest?” Recognizing the importance of language when it comes to how we portray animals Examples of “pest” control in the wizarding world and Muggle world Speciesism and “pest” control Unforeseen effects of “pest” control on biodiversity and other species (including humans) Non-lethal, sustainable, and animal-friendly ways of deterring and removing animal visitors / critters from our homes and spaces and into habitats which are safer and more suited to them! Be sure to check out Tylor’s new podcast - Radicals & Revolutionaries: “An oral history podcast documenting the radical animal liberation movement and the revolutionaries who started it.”   We’ll return soon for another episode exploring animal rights in the Wizarding World, but in the meantime, be sure to send us your thoughts via email, let us know how many predictions you got right for this episode’s fanfic, leave a review, join our Patreon, and, on behalf of all magical creatures, Protego Maxima!   Visit our ProtegoCast website and subscribe to the ProtegoCast Patreon over at Patreon.com/protegocast.
