Episode 17: How Bureaucracy and Neglect Fail Animals in NYC and Beyond
Curtis and Nancy Sliwa cover a full slate of urgent animal issues, starting with Curtis’s mayoral run and the launch of Protect Animals, the first independent political line focused solely on animal welfare. They recount a Staten Island gathering of 500 animal rescuers and outline goals like no-kill shelters and tougher penalties for abusers. They examine the death of Lady, a 15-year-old NYC carriage horse, and the stalled “Ryder’s Law” aimed at ending the industry. The Sliwas also expose NYCHA’s mistreatment of feral cats, highlight Amsterdam’s new canal staircases to save cats from drowning, discuss the euthanasia of a moose in upstate New York, and share research on the decline of blue whale songs off California linked to environmental change.
