Lions, Rhinos and Moose: Stories from Africa and Canada

Part of an interview with Jackie Kripki for Media Group of Saskatoon. Edited by Tyler Baptist, produced by Thirza Jones. The clip consists of storytelling about The Trouble With Lions, Wrestling With Rhinos, A Glasgow Vet in Africa, and the King of the Dik diks. I describe how a program run by the Saskatchewan Writers Guild got me started with writing creative non-fiction. There is a brief discussion about work in Uganda with Canadian and Ugandan veterinary students and visits to two small primary schools in Queen Elizabeth National Park.

Fascinating video. Haigh is a terrific storyteller.

The stories this guy has, and the way he tells them--I think it's time for his own TV show! Animal Planet? Discovery? Where are you guys???

Dr. Haigh tells a great story! The animals, the science and, most of all, the people, are skilfully woven in. Jerry Haigh's stories are even more moving and fascinating to read in his books than they are to watch on these YouTube posts.
