Science is now providing some remarkable insights into animal behaviour, with crocodiles, for example, emerging as devoted parents, and elephants - like whales - able to communicate with each other across long distances by ultrasound, which is inaudible to our ears. There seems little doubt that animals experience a range of emotions, just as we do; but can they grieve, too ...?Evidence exists that, indeed, they can: in addition, David Alderton - award-winning, multi-million selling specialist animal author - contends that emotions - including grief - can potentially have a survival value for a species.The authoritative, rational text is superbly supported by interesting, sensitive photographs, carefully chosen to be reflective of the subject matter.
