we were thrilled to welcome Caisey Cainan, a friend of the show and one of the world’s most renowned big cat trainers. Caisey’s journey into the fascinating world of big cats began in his childhood when he ran away to join a circus. It was there that he met his first mentor, a pivotal figure in his life who tragically lost his life to a tiger. This harrowing incident deeply impacted Caisey and set him on the path to becoming a big cat trainer, driven by a desire to honor his mentor’s legacy and improve safety and training standards in the field.
Caisey shared captivating stories from his time in the circus, providing a rare glimpse into the unique challenges and rewards of training big cats. Moreover, his passion for these majestic animals was evident as he discussed the intricacies of building trust and communication with them.
Transitioning from big cats, Caisey has now dedicated his expertise to professional and sporting dog training in Australia. He spoke about how the skills and lessons learned from big cat training have seamlessly translated into his work with dogs, bringing a unique perspective and approach to the field. Therefore, join us for an inspiring episode as Caisey Cainan shares his incredible journey and the lessons he’s learned along the way.
