Animals As Teachers And Muses (H327)

H – Literature

What can humans learn from our observation of animals in their natural habitats, zoos or our own backyards? What important life lessons might animals teach us? This courseattempts to answer those questions as we view photos from the instructor’s recent African safari. We also read poems and short stories about animals and view animal paintings/sculptures. Class members are invited to share their own experiences with animals. No textbook required.
