Animal Connection



Animal connection refers to bonds, relationships, and interactions between people and animals, both between people and their animal companions and between people and animals generally. Many philosophers, mystics, and scientists have found animals, their behaviors, and their varying connections to humans to be a source of wisdom and a revelation of the divine or natural order. Current research on and experience with interspecies interaction and on alternative forms of intelligence are revealing ways we can share understanding, feeling, and communication with animals.
