Description
We are surrounded by opportunities to learn from those who are different from us. Diversity has become a welcome awareness for our institutions and relationships. What might we learn if we included in that view those creatures that are oriented differently toward survival and existence? This session will focus specifically on the learning which is possible if predators step back and observe before interacting with prey animals. Examples from working with horses will be a key element of this conversation.
