A response to the devastating 2019-20 bushfires, Animals Make Us Human both
celebrates Australia's unique wildlife and highlights its vulnerability. Through
words and images, writers, photographers and researchers reflect on their
connection with animals and nature. They share moments of wonder and revelation
from encounters in the natural world: seeing a wild platypus at play, an echidna
dawdling across a bush track, or the inexplicable leap of a thresher shark;
watching bats take flight at dusk, or birds making a home in the backyard; or
following possums, gliders and owls into the dark.
Hopeful, uplifting and deeply moving, this collection is also an urgent call to
action, a powerful reminder that we only have one world in which to coexist and
thrive with our fellow creatures. By highlighting the beauty and fragility of
our unique fauna, Australia's favourite writers, renowned researchers and
acclaimed photographers encourage readers to consider it in a new light.
