March Madness 2024: The "All Animals are 200 lbs Cage Match" Edition
Here's the annual Tooth & Claw March Madness episode, wherein Jeff has decided the competition will be that all animals will all weigh exactly 200 pounds, and then fight in hypothetical 1-on-1 cage matches until the last one is standing.
We kind of try to operate under consistent logic and rules, but half the fun of these episodes is the delirium it devolves into by the end. We hope you find some value and entertainment in the chaos.

Customer Reviews
Definitely a favorite
If you aren’t listening to Tooth and Claw, you need to fix yourself now. These guys are hilarious and have such solid info if you’re an outdoorsman or hiker. I love the way that they never demonize the animal for doing what comes naturally. 100% recommended!

THE BEST EVER
58 is not old!
I love this podcast. The episodes/ stories are so well done and informative… I love the format which entertains but also informs on species and provides safety tips for the episode animal too. Also: having grown up surrounded by girls and women (all sisters, all daughters in my life) I totally enjoy these men! They are smart and kind but also silly. They’re doing a great job! They did refer to a 58 year old woman attacked by a bear as she emerged from her well as “an older woman”. I was absolutely horrified as I am her age … and I am young!! 58 is not old!
