Welcome to the ‘Canid Thoughts’ podcast where we will explore the spiritual connection between wolves, coyotes, foxes, and humans. We will probe and tell historical to modern-day stories regarding individual Canids. The complex meanings which are characterized by individual animals, species, or Canids provide the sacred ground where our conversations will originate. We will also explore co-existence and how our responsibility to nature evolves over time.
In this final episode of season two, Leigh Langford and Kayla Wilcox reflect upon memorable moments from this season and talk about what is ahead. Then, Leigh Langford and Julia Di Sieno talk about how she rescued and cared for Angel the coyote.
