Pam Chamberlain (EDT) In the Company of Animals

Annotation

Real-life tales that explore the complexities of human-animal relationships-from domestic pets to farm animals to wildlife.In this collection, thirty-seven writers from across Canada tell thought-provoking stories of extraordinary encounters with a variety of animals-from rats and salamanders to wolves and bears. From tributes to a favorite cat or dog to tales of a chance encounter with a moose or a cougar, these stories are sure to entertain and enlighten. The writers are people who spend time in the company of animals-pet owners, farmers, veterinarians, hunters, artists, landowners, game wardens-those who pay close attention to them and their natures, and the lessons they can teach us.
