History Explains It All

Weird History: Medieval Animal Court


Listen Later

What do you do if your neighbor's bull breaks into your property? Put the bull on trial for damages, of course! Join us this week as we discuss Animal Trials during the Medieval Era. We talk about the different types of trials, various cases and even a film adaptation of a medieval lawyer defending a pig!

Disclaimer: there is talk about the execution of animals and a very brief mention of the death of infants.
