On this podcast, I will be diving in and talk about all the amazing animals that live on this precious planet named Earth, in which we call "Home". In each episode, I will talk about an animal, and it will go in order according to the Weekly Animal Dedication I do on Instagram (@the.official_wad). Make sure to drop a follow on that page and on my main @will.zookeeps and remember, Cherish Nature and its Beauties. Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/talk_ot_wildside/support
