A footless goose, a police cover-up, and a 35-year-long unsolved murder case
From The Animal Nerd Podcast · 31:16
Show by The Little Rescue Zoo
I feel like this one story perfectly encapsulates so many of the recurring themes of this podcast. Wholesome animal rescue story! Disabled animals thriving! A famous pet! The mutual healing of the human-animal bond! Unsolved crime! Horrific violence!...wait, what was that last one?Yeah, I'm as surprised as you that my animal podcast features quite so many true crime and unsolved mystery elements as it does. And I know for a fact that there are more episodes like that coming - although possibly none quite so strange and outlandish as this one!Seriously, whatever you're expecting from this episode, I promise you it's even weirder and has even more twists than that. I am honestly obsessed with this story.Original air date: 2nd March 2026Important note: Unfortunately I wasn't able to import my show when I was switching hosting platforms, and as a result I'm having to re-upload my podcast from the start. Because of that, these early episodes are not indictive of the show's current quality - both in terms of the equipment used and my own skills as a writer & presenter - so apologies for that! Hopefully before too long I'll have caught up to my current output.
