s1e33: one of the most visceral images from the ongoing genocide in Ukraine has been Ukrainians risking everything to save their pets or animals from a war zone. From zoo keepers who keep showing up for work even under russian shelling and rescuers putting their lives on the line to save pets trapped under the rubble of russian terrorist attacks, to thousands of volunteers working 24/7 to assist war-affected animals in the most dangerous places across the country. But why do Ukrainians keep risking their lives to save a life of an animal? The answer will tell you much more about Ukraine than you expect. For this one, we feature Olha Chevhaniuk, a Ukrainian animal rights activist behind @UAnimalsENG, Ukraine's largest animal rescue initiative.
