How can we give animals the best life-- for them? What does an
animal need to be happy? In her groundbreaking, best-selling book
"Animals in Translation, "Temple Grandin drew on her own experience
with autism as well as her experience as an animal scientist to
deliver extraordinary insights into how animals think, act, and
feel. Now she builds on those insights to show us how to give our
animals the best and happiest life-- on their terms, not ours.
Knowing what causes animals physical pain is usually easy, but
pinpointing emotional distress is much harder. Drawing on the
latest research and her own work, Grandin identifies the core
emotional needs of animals and then explains how to fulfill the
specific needs of dogs and cats, horses, farm animals, zoo animals,
and even wildlife. Whether it's how to make the healthiest
environment for the dog you must leave alone most of the day, how
to keep pigs from being bored, or how to know if the lion pacing in
the zoo is miserable or just exercising, Grandin teaches us to
challenge our assumptions about animal contentment and honor our
bond with our fellow creatures.Animals Make Us Human is the
culmination of almost thirty years of research, experimentation,
and experience. This is essential reading for anyone who's ever
owned, cared for, or simply cared about an animal.
