The Grizzly Deaths of Timothy Treadwell and Amie Huguenard, Part 2: Tragedy in the Grizzly Maze

The Grizzly Deaths of Timothy Treadwell and Amie Huguenard, Part 2: Tragedy in the Grizzly Maze

Author: Wes Larson, Jeff Larson, Mike Smith | Daylight Media December 16, 2024 Duration: 1:38:07
In the second and final chapter of our series on Timothy Treadwell, Wes takes us through the circumstances that ultimately led to the horrific and violent demise of both Timothy and his partner Amie Huguenard. On Oct. 5, 2003, an Alaskan brown bear decided to kill and then feed on the famous bear whisperer and his companion. We break down the evidence from the attack to recreate what most likely happened that afternoon, and then we go over some of the different theories concerning the responsible bears. We also examine the genesis and growth of the love that Timothy and Amie had for each other, as well as the somewhat rocky relationship that Timothy had with the National Park Service that extended to the scientific community at large. It's an absolutely crazy closing chapter to our most requested story ever, and we hope you like it! Watch here: ~~ To advertise on the show, contact us! ~~ Tooth & Claw is brought to you by QCODE.
