In Beyond Words, readers travel to Amboseli National Park in the threatened landscape of Kenya and witness struggling elephant families work out how to survive poaching and drought, then to Yellowstone National Park to observe wolves sort out the aftermath of one pack's personal tragedy, and finally plunge into the astonishingly peaceful society of killer whales living in the crystalline waters of the Pacific Northwest. Beyond Words brings forth powerful and illuminating insight into the unique personalities of animals through extraordinary stories of animal joy, grief, jealousy, anger, and love. The similarity between human and nonhuman consciousness, self-awareness, and empathy calls us to re-evaluate how we interact with animals" --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 591.56 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 591.56 Safina Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 591.56 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 591.56 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 591.56 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 591.56 Safina Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Nonfiction 591.56 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 591.56 Safina Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 591.56 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
