Temim Fruchter is a writer living in Brooklyn: “One of the things I’m always so aware of with animals is that is that I know so little, we know so little, about where they’re coming from, where they’re going, what’s going on with them. And it’s extremely humbling, and it’s an important kind of humbling, I think.” In this episode, we talk about the raccoon and the meaning of wildness.
