I am glad that there are books written on how animals have the full range of feelings and emotions. I have seen and known this for a long, long time. If you observe and listen, you will understand that in front of you is a beautiful sentient being as capable as any human in giving and receiving love.

So true, Perry, they say once you look into an animals eyes, it's all over, you will see their soul and know they are your true friend. Thank you for reading and sharing, have a beautiful weekend.

Thank you for the recommendation, Sue! I have "The Hidden Life of Trees" and am excited to check this one out. I live in Bear Country in New Hampshire and just had a HUGE Mama Bear and her two cubs in my front yard last week. It's such a gift to be so close to these majestic animals. 🐻🐻🐻

The wisdom of wolves is on backorder in the United States. Hopefully that changes soon there’s a pack that travels not far from my house. I live in Northern Wisconsin. I have two coyotes that seem to live on the property the last couple of winters.

Wow, Raphael, thank you for sharing. How amazing to have coyotes close by. You will love the book. Elli spent hours and years observing and befriending with her wolves - such exquisite, intelligent and family-oriented creatures. I am going to share a book review next week so stay tuned!

Thanks for sharing this. It seemed to me as I live longer on the earth. I noticed more and more to me It seems animals are getting more conscious or at least I’m relating to them more in a conscious level than I did in my younger years.

My pleasure, Raphael, and you are so right, as we raise our consciousness and frequency, so we come more into harmony with them - they are already there waiting for us to connect with them. I feel certain they are here to help us to love each other and be more like them!

That's wonderful, Cindy, thank you! I am sure will enjoy it, covers pretty much all the emotions from laughter to tears. Written so beautifully with such gentle humour and all due respect and awe for our friends in the animal and bird worlds. Enjoy!
