HUMAN ANIMAL INTERACTION

The relationship between human and animal is complex and articulate such as to suggest a natural and innate predisposition in the human beings toward the "eterospecific relationship". It is too simplistic to consider the human-animal relation only from a cultural point of view such the predatory aspect. In fact, human being has used the animal world in a much more complex manner: he utilized it as a vocabulary and sistemic operator. In the the zoomorphism he found the forms for his immagination , and the raft to go away from the place of the innate behaviours............
With this brief introduction i wanted to underlie the main points we are going to discuss in this blog:
- zooanthropology (the study of human animal relationship);
- animal beavioural medicine in pet and exotic animals;
- human-animal training and communications;
- animal cognition.............
.........and more.
