Abstract
The lives of animals and humans are deeply intertwined and mutually influencing. Neither animal nor human experience can be under-stood without reference to the other, a fact that has given rise to a field of study called anthrozoology (now often referred to as human—animal studies, or HAS).1 There has been an explosion of interest in the multifaceted and interdisciplinary field of HAS (e.g., Adams & Donovan, 1995; Bekoff, 2010; Cavalieri, 2001; DeMello, 2010; Freeman, Leane, & Watts, 2011; Flynn, 2008; Manning, Aubrey, & Serpell, 1994; Robisch, 2009; Serpell, 1996; Urbanik, 2012).
