During the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, America and the Soviets were on the brink of nuclear war. And during this time a black bear jumped over the fence and into an American air base. The guard sounded the alarm thinking it was a Soviet spy nearly causing WW3.

Also, Matt gets heat exhaustion while recording. 

In this episode we look at what happens on the fateful day when Terry Thompson let out his 50 plus exotic animals and ended his own life.  We look at what the officers had to do and the difficult decisions they had to make.  No other police force has had to deal with a situation like this before... nobody is prepared for something like this.  We also look into the aftermath of this crazy story.

We bring you the set up for a famous story from 2011.  A man named Terry Thompson, a very excentric man who owned over 50 exotic animals.  We learn about his life and mental state before the incident.  Terry let all of his animals loose and then killed himself... leaving local authorities to deal with 50 dangerous animals on the loose.  We're talking lions, tigers, bears, wolves, cougars all on the loose in a rural town in Ohio.  And this is just part one.

We had a solo episode where we learn all about the amazing big cat... The leopard. Since we have covered several man-eating leopard stories we thought it would be a good idea to learn more about them. There are actually eight different leopard subspecies sprinkled throughout Asia and Africa. We go over all of them, as well as quiz Dave on if he can tell the difference between a leopard and jaguar. We also talk about what a black panther is.  Get ready to learn a lot.

We bring you another adventure from our man, Jim Corbett. In this adventure we cover Jim's hunt for the Panar Man-eating Leopard. While this leopard is one of his lesser known stories it has the second highest kill count by an animal in recorded history. 400 kills. This large male leopard terrorized villages in India for years.  We follow how Jim was finally able to end the leopards reign of terror.
