About this episode
Nick DiGiovanni cooks for various animals while emphasizing animal welfare and ethical treatment.
Watch to the end to see me cook for a lion! Throughout this entire video, I worked with animal welfare experts and veterinarians to ensure that we only worked with the best animal habitats and fed the animals ingredients that already exist in their normal, everyday diets (as you’ll see, most dishes are simple and vegetable based). Many animals are mistreated around the world, so it was extremely important to me while making this video that we found organizations committed to giving the animals the best lives possible! The elephant sanctuary, for instance, rescues elephants that have been forced into some kind of heavy labor their entire lives and gives them a comfortable, safe, and happy retirement in the jungle for the rest of their lives. If you’re reading this, I’d highly encourage you to do your own research before visiting a zoo, aquarium, or anything similar to make sure they treat their animals humanely.
