How Animals Grieve by Barbara J King
From the time of our earliest childhood encounters with animals, we casually ascribe familiar emotions to them. The author argues that we can - and should - attend to animal emotions. She draws our attention to the specific case of grief, and relates story after story of animals mourning lost companions, mates, or friends.
"Poignant, thoughtful, and sometimes heartbreakingBarbara J. King once again elevates the discussion of animal emotion. She tackles a tricky subject with a scientist's care and an animal lover's grace." -Jennifer Holland, author of Unlikely Friendships: 47 Remarkable Stories from the Animal Kingdom"
Barbara J. King is professor of anthropology at the College of William and Mary. She is the author or editor of many books, including Being with Animals. She blogs regularly for National Public Radio and reviews for the Times Literary Supplement.
