I'm a natural-born networker and just can't seem to stop myself from shaking hands with new people. I'm mostly facsinated by the human-animal bond and since we - you and I - control this more often than not, I want to know what you think.

Thesis
Winner of the Critical Animal Studies Undergraduate Dissertation of the Year 2010
How does photography, film and literature effect human perceptions of gorillas? How persuasive are photographs, films and books about gorillas in making us
believe one thing over another - that gorillas are fierce or that gorillas are peaceful? This thesis is

widespread compassion for animals that is spurred on by stories told often about
favoured species like gorillas, or not often told about less favoured
species.
