Communication between animals intrigues me! The psychology and sociology of communication and its effects drives me to question what animals are capable of, including humans. I am also passionate about travel: Exploring new places inspires me to learn about cultures around the world and their interrelationship with animals; the symbolism and worship of animals suggests that many cultures revered attributes of their chosen, which in turn influenced the way that society functioned. To me this suggests that non-human animal communication may have practical applications in human psychology and the healing of the wounded psyche.
