This essay was written by Marc Bekoff, Ph.D., and Colorado’s First Gentleman, Marlon H. Reis. Now more than ever, we must recognize that animals do matter. They are more than symbols of geographic and political divides. They deserve more out of life than to be casualties in our own failed efforts to coexist with one another, much less the natural world.

Earlier this year, I received some not-so-great test results. They suggested some potentially scary things…

Now that Hurricane Imelda continues to race away from the island, damage assessments are being conducted. “Assessment crews, including BELCO teams…
