 Pen Farthing' animal rescue: animals versus humans | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 136

The rescue of animals by Paul "Pen" Farthing has garnered criticism in that he brought animals out of #Afghanistan from Kabul airport whilst many humans were left stranded.

Here is my take on it.My blog: https://www.petertimothycooper.co.uk/Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/thevirtualvicar...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHZk7NJuqvA

Times have changed in the magic industry. Tricks aren't just about sawing people in half these days - they also teach people about climate change.
