Animals in our lives : human-animal interaction in family, community, and therapeutic settings / by McCardle, Peggy D.;

Includes bibliographical references and index.What do we know about the benefits of human-animal interaction (HAI)- and what future research needs to be done to ensure high-quality, evidence-based practices? This book is an essential research volume for anyone interested in the impact of animal therapies and interaction on child health and development. Gathering contributions from the leading experts in the HAI field, this landmark volume explores the current evidence on: how children with disabilities can benefit from animal therapies; how animals can strengthen empathy, trust, and other hallmarks of social competence; why animal-assisted intervention is valuable for children with mental health issues and physical illnesses; how animals in classrooms can enhance a wide range of developmental skills; which key factors help ensure ethical HAI practices; how to reduce risks associated with child-animal interactions; why pet ownership can benefit both a child and the whole family. -- from Back Cover

Animal wise : how we know animals think and feel / by Morell, Virginia.;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 281-283) and index.This book explores the frontiers of research on animal cognition and emotion, offering a surprising examination into the hearts and minds of wild and domesticated animals. Have you ever wondered what it is like to be a fish? Or a parrot, dolphin, or an elephant? Do they experience thoughts that are similar to ours, or have feelings of grief and love? These are tough questions, but scientists are answering them. They know that ants teach and rats love to be tickled. They have discovered that dogs have thousand-word vocabularies and that birds practice their songs in their sleep. But how do scientists know these things? This book takes us on a dazzling odyssey into the inner world of animals and among the pioneering researchers who are leading the way into once-forbidden territory: the animal mind. Here the author transports us to field sites and laboratories around the world, introducing us to animal-cognition scientists and their surprisingly intelligent and sensitive subjects. She explores how this rapidly evolving, controversial field has only recently overturned old notions about why animals behave as they do. In this she brings the world of nature brilliantly alive in a nuanced, deeply felt appreciation of the human-animal bond. -- From book jacket.

Mozart's starling / [electronic resource]. by Haupt, Lyanda Lynn.; Henning, Linda.;

Narrator: Linda Henning.On May 27th, 1784, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart met a flirtatious little starling in a Viennese shop who sang an improvised version of the theme from his Piano Concerto no. 17 in G major. Sensing a kindred spirit in the plucky young bird, Mozart bought him and took him home to be a family pet. For three years, the starling lived with Mozart, influencing his work and serving as his companion, distraction, consolation, and muse. Two centuries later, starlings are reviled by even the most compassionate conservationists. A nonnative, invasive species, they invade sensitive habitats, outcompete local birds for nest sites and food, and decimate crops. A seasoned birder and naturalist, Lyanda Lynn Haupt is well versed in the difficult and often strained relationships these birds have with other species and the environment. But after rescuing a baby starling of her own, Haupt found herself enchanted by the same intelligence and playful spirit that had so charmed her favorite composer. In Mozart's Starling, Haupt explores the unlikely and remarkable bond between one of history's most cherished composers and one of earth's most common birds. The intertwined stories of Mozart's beloved pet and Haupt's own starling provide an unexpected window into human-animal friendships, music, the secret world of starlings, and the nature of creative inspiration. A blend of natural history, biography, and memoir, Mozart's Starling is a tour de force that awakens a surprising new awareness of our place in the world.Electronic reproduction.

Loving animals : toward a new animal advocacy / by Rudy, Kathy.;

"The contemporary animal rights movement encompasses a wide range of sometimes competing agendas from vegetarianism to animal liberation. For people for whom pets are family members--animal lovers outside the fray--extremist positions in which all human-animal interaction is suspect often discourage involvement in the movement to end cruelty to other beings. In Loving Animals, Kathy Rudy argues that in order to achieve such goals as ending animal testing and factory farming, activists need to be better attuned to the profound emotional, even spiritual, attachment that many people have with the animals in their lives. Offering an alternative to both the acceptance of animal exploitation and radical animal liberation, Rudy shows that a deeper understanding of the nature of our feelings for and about animals can redefine the human-animal relationship in a positive way. Through extended interviews with people whose lives are intertwined with animals, analysis of the cultural representation of animals, and engaging personal accounts, she explores five realms in which humans use animals: as pets, for food, in entertainment, in scientific research, and for clothing. In each case she presents new methods of animal advocacy to reach a more balanced and sustainable relationship association built on reciprocity and connection. Using this intense emotional bond as her foundation, Rudy suggests that the nearly universal stories we tell of living with and loving animals will both broaden the support for animal advocacy and inspire the societal changes that will improve the lives of animals--and humans--everywhere."--Provided by publisher.Includes bibliographical references (p. 233-245) and index.Introduction: A change of heart -- What's behind animal advocacy? -- The love of a dog: of pets and puppy mills, mixed-breeds and shelters -- The animal on your plate: farmers, vegans, and locavores -- Where the wild things ought to be: sanctuaries, zoos, and exotic pets -- From object to subject: animals in scientific research -- Clothing ourselves in stories of love: affect and animal advocacy -- Conclusion: Trouble in the pack.

Vets and pets : wounded warriors and the animals that help them heal / by Guerin, Dava.; Ferris, Kevin,1958-author.;

Acknowledgments -- Foreword / by Former First Lady Barbara Bush -- Foreword / by Animal Planet Host Andrea Arden -- Introduction -- Animals and veterans in America: their enduring bonds and healing powers -- At your service -- The army specialist : "A reason to get out of bed in the morning" -- The marine tank commander : "That's what that dog is for" -- The army nurse : "Some kind of a guardian angel" -- The army captain : "Issac has been waiting for his special person" -- The marine corporal : "Gnome somehow can read me" -- The navy Vietnam veteran : "The dog becomes a family member" -- The navy dog handler : "this was love at first bite" -- More creatures, great and small -- The Vietnam infantryman : "grab a bird, put on a glove, and go for a walk" -- The army reservist : "My God, no one is going to adopt her" -- The cowboy marine : "Here's how you saddle a horse" -- The Air Force vet and veterinarian : "Our house is a pet menagerie" -- The navy Boatswain's mate : "I just had to have him" -- Max, the horse that helps heroes : "We have all fallen in love with him" -- The army veteran : "Together, they heal and grow" -- Secrets for an enduring bond : "Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened" -- Epilogue -- About the authors."Vets and Pets tells fifteen emotional and entertaining stories of the incredible bonds between wounded warriors, veterans, and other service members and their service and companion animals. Whether these special relationships are with dogs, cats, horses, pigs, or even birds of prey, readers will discover how these remarkable animals help veterans return to civilian life and live independently while simultaneously bringing joy and confidence into their lives.Tyler struggled to adjust to civilian life after losing both of his legs in Afghanistan, until he met his intelligent and willfully disobedient red European Doberman pinscher, Apollo. Vietnam veteran Patrick regained a sense of well-being and hope through the study of birds of prey. Max the horse has helped numerous veterans learn to trust, improve their communication, and increase their self-confidence and self-esteem. Mandi discovered that the intelligence and unconditional love of pigs were exactly what she needed to heal from an abusive past and a disappointing army-training injury. These are just a few of the uplifting stories that are featured in this striking collection.In addition to exploring the unique, lifelong bonds that can develop between veterans and their animal companions, Vets and Pets spotlights extraordinary nonprofits that unite wounded warriors with service and companion animals, including Pets for Patriots, Hooves Marching for Mercy, Horses Helping Heroes, and Avian Veteran Alliance, among others."--Publisher's description.
