Review # 1 was written on 2012-06-17 00:00:00 Bastien Eric It was not lost on me that when I first heard news of the terrorist attacks in Paris I was holding a book by a gentleman named François Leydet. The Coyote: Defiant Songdog of the West is very much about survival against sometimes terrifying odds. But the endangered species Leydet writes about is not so much the coyote as it is homo sapiens. Leydet lays out facts supporting the idea that canis latrans is a symbol of the stumbling blocks we face as a society. The coyote will survive no matter what we do with it or to it: short of nuclear annihilation. Our survival, however, depends much on how we learn to treat other species, and other people, in ways that respect their place in the world we share. Unless our outlook rises above partially informed self-interest we will remain in a contest for the world's resources without recourse to knowledge that might save us. If you only read one book about coyotes, you'd do well to choose this one. |
