Ep. 82: A Contentious Interview with Grizzly Bear Attack Survivor and Wildlife Advocate Barrie K. Gilbert

On this week’s show, we’re joined by grizzly bear advocate, wildlife activist, and author Barrie K. Gilbert to talk all things bears. Gilbert has become an outspoken advocate for grizzlies in recent years after surviving a brutal attack in Yellowstone in 1977. Unfortunately, the interview quickly goes off the rails and becomes the most contentious conversation in THC history. Connect with <a href="https://www.themeateater.com/authors/mark-kenyon">Ben</a> and <a href="https://www.themeateater.com/">MeatEater</a>Ben on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bennyob301/?hl=en">Instagram</a>MeatEater on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/meateater">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/StevenRinellaMeatEater/">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/MeatEaterTV?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">Twitter</a>, and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAaa0mleeU128Ad5iM1RFIg">Youtube</a>Shop <a href="https://store.themeateater.com/">MeatEater Merch</a> Learn more about your ad-choices at <a href="https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com">https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
