Marc Bekoff will speak about and sign his new book, Rewilding Our Hearts, on Wednesday, November 12th at 7:30pm.

About the Book: In wildlife conservation, rewilding refers to restoring habitats and creating corridors between preserved lands to allow declining populations to rebound. Marc Bekoff, animal expert and activist, applies rewilding to human attitudes. Rewilding Our Hearts invites readers to become reenchanted with the world, act from the inside out, and dissolve false boundaries to connect with both nature and themselves.

Marc Bekoff will speak about and sign his new book, Why Dogs Hump and Bees Get Depressed, on Tuesday, November 12th at 7:30pm.

More About the Book: In 2009, Marc Bekoff was asked to write on animal emotions for Psychology Today. Some 500 essays later, the field of anthrozoology—the study of human-animal relationships—has grown exponentially. In Why Dogs Hump and Bees Get Depressed, Bekoff offers selected essays that showcase the fascinating cognitive abilities of other animals as well as their empathy, grief, humor, joy, and love. This collection is a call to begin the important work of "rewilding" ourselves and changing the way we treat other animals.

Marc Bekoff will speak about and sign his new books, Ignoring Nature No More: The Case for Compassionate Consrvation and Jasper's Story on Thursday, June 6th at *6:30pm*.

About Ignoring Nature No More: For far too long humans have been ignoring nature. As the most dominant, overproducing, and invasive species ever known, we are wrecking the planet at an unprecedented rate. In Ignoring Nature No More, Marc Bekoff and a host of renowned contributors argue that we need a new mind-set about nature, one that centers on empathy, compassion, and being proactive.

About Jasper’s Story: For years Jasper, a moon bear, lived a miserable existence, held captive in a cage by bear farmers in China. But now Jasper has the chance to be free and live a life away from pain and torture. In 2000, an animal welfare organization rescued Jasper and other captive moon bears, taking them to a Moon Bear Rescue Centre. Can Jasper mend his body and mind and enjoy the life he was meant to live?

This is a FREE event, open to all!
