When killing wildlife is called "conservation," who speaks for the animals?

Jane Velez-Mitchell brings together three animal and environmental advocates to examine the battle over America's wildlife—from Catalina Island's mule deer to barred owls and wild horses.

The panel challenges lethal wildlife management, discusses concerns about Colorado's proposed hunting and fishing amendment, and explores the connections between animal agriculture, habitat loss, and declining biodiversity. Along the way, they share ways people can speak up for animals and advocate for a more compassionate relationship with nature.

In this episode:
• The controversy over killing Catalina Island's deer
• The federal plan to kill barred owls to protect spotted owls
• Wild horse roundups and the pressures of livestock grazing
• Concerns about Colorado's proposed hunting and fishing amendment
• Public advocacy, nonlethal alternatives, and plant-based choices

The beagles are out. For 47 animal rescuers, the legal battle is just beginning.

UnchainedTV takes you inside the first court appearances in Madison, Wisconsin, for activists facing felony burglary charges connected to an open rescue at Ridglan Farms, a facility that bred beagles for animal experimentation.

Jane Velez-Mitchell follows the proceedings with commentary from former law enforcement investigator Tiffany Brunelli. Hear supporters—including Congressman Mark Pocan—speak outside the courthouse, listen to the court proceedings, and hear directly from defendants about why they acted and what comes next.

The coverage also examines medical findings reported by Beagle Freedom Project and Ridglan's response denying mistreatment and defending its care of the dogs.

In this episode:
• The first court appearances for 47 beagle rescuers
• Public officials and supporters calling for the charges to be dropped
• Release conditions and the next steps discussed in court
• Medical concerns reported after the dogs' release
