Session Descriptions:
Interactions: Examining the Roles of Animals in Our Lives
Animals play many roles in our lives. In our homes they take the role of companion, exercise partner, "fur child", and best friend. In the wild we see them as symbols of freedom, nature's treasures, and sometimes as pests! Then there are the forgotten animals who we envision living peacefully on family farms, but who are more often locked away in warehouses until we see them on our dinner plates. How do we characterize and label our interactions with various species? Are we perpetrating species-ism? How do the animals in our lives view us? What can be done to improve our inter-species relationships?

The Health Benefits of Having a Pet
A look at the physical and emotional health benefits of living with a pet, including how to get some of these benefits if you don't have a pet of your own.

Animal Communications 101, part 2
