- The yowling of the tigers in the one portion of this episode brings me nearly to tears, and I'm not sure why. I've listened to this episode twice now, and each time this is the part that gets me. I'm not necessarily inclined to tigers, I find their future grim and that's horribly sad, but I don't stay up at night worrying about it (I probably should). So why it affects me I think is the whole production of the show and the way it's presented- it really makes you feel for the animals- the dichotomy of the circus music going on in the background the laughter and such, clashing with this horrible image of metal bars and the sound of giant cats just agonizing in an everlasting prison of boredom and neglect. It's horrible. Frightening. It makes me want to do more to protect wildlife, makes me wish I was more conscious of my environmental decisions- and that is why Radiolab is so great. It makes you want to act, makes you want to share, and it's not just entertainment- it truly enriches your life. Thank you so much for this!
