Marc Bekoff, PhD: Animal Emotions at Bark! Fest, the book festival for animal lovers

Описание: When The Emotional Lives of Animals was first published in 2007, it was a gamechanger for its exploration of animal emotions and cognition. Now, a second edition has been published to bring us up to date on all the new science of animal emotions. Marc Bekoff joins us in this webinar to talk about animals’ experiences of joy, empathy, grief, anger, and embarrassment. You’ll never see animals the same way again.

We talked about:
What Marc Bekoff was hoping to do when he wrote the first edition of this book in 2007, and why he wrote a second edition
Bekoff says, "It is no longer radical to recognize, respect, and want to protect the emotional lives of animals.” We talk about how people can recognize, respect, and protect animal emotions
What he looks out for when he watches dogs run around and play at the dog park
Examples of sorrow and empathy in non-human animals
Bekoff's research on wild canids including wolves
What it was like to create the book, Jane Goodall at 90
Plus Marc did a reading from the book and we were all captivated!

The books are available from all good bookstores.
