**Throwback Episode** We discuss the pivotal issues that determine whether such animals as giraffe, bison, and others are kosher. Is it a matter of custom, tradition, or identifying signs? What are the signs on an observational and anatomical level? What are the Torah and Rabbinical requirements? This class was given at the Phoenix Community Kollel on 3/25/08.
