Fantasy & Reality Ep 6: ANIMAL KINGDOM — What Wildlife Teaches Us About Being Human

Описание: THE ANIMAL KINGDOM — What Wildlife Teaches Us About Being Human

In this episode of Fantasy v. Reality, fantasy author Elara Dunn (‪@themagiclocker‬​ ) and wildlife documentary filmmaker Shannon Malone-deBenedictis @#PadlinCreative explore how animals and humans really aren’t so different. From wolf packs and orcas to hyenas and elephants, we dig into what the animal kingdom reveals about hierarchy, care, disability, “alpha males,” empathy, and survival.

Shannon shares behind-the-scenes insights from filming wildlife documentaries, including how outdated science and narrow perspectives led to myths like the “alpha male” wolf. Elara brings in her lived experience from the disability world, reflecting on Neanderthals caring for disabled members, versus how modern societies have often shunned them.

If you love nature documentaries, science, human behavior, or just want a new way to think about yourself and others, this episode is for you. 🌍💛
