Many years ago I watched a documentary entitled “Animal Odd Couples” which introduced me to the world of Anthrozoology. “Animal Odd Couples” was a “Nature” episode which outlined the lives of various animals who had formed interesting, cross-species relationships; Relationships that one wouldn't normally expect to find, because the idea of animals experiencing complex emotions, and forming genuine friendships could be – and for a long time was – considered taboo. In the past whenever animal welfare science had hinted at the fact that animals do experience these types of emotions, and do in fact form complex relationships that mirror our own it was considered anthropomorphism. As a student of anthropology who has a deeply seeded passion for…

As the daughter of an anti-pet mother, having a puppy has been my frustrated dream. Once, when younger, I approached my mother and told her that I didn't need a pure-bred dog that I would take in one of the many stray ones. Of course, the answer was a "No". Ever since then, I became aware of the lots of homeless animals on the streets. Now that I'm older, I realize that if our country's government doesn't even focus properly on human beings, animals have little to no chance of having a place in our "Immediate Help" listing.…

All through my childhood my dad has taught me how to take care of animals. This has taught me some valuable lessons in life. It has taught me priorities and work ethic.

My dad has also taught me how to connect with animals and this has helped me learn how to respect animals and give them my best care. Animals impact our lives in a major way and I want to show how PETA is wrong and does not have evidence of how all farmers treat their animals.…
