The author and modern naturalist sits down with Riley Morton to discuss the release of Crow Planet in 2009: how scary it was to open the New York Times for the full page review… how interesting to learn at the book events that there were far more crow tattoos than Lyanda had ever imagined. In this wide ranging conversation, Lyanda explains why anthropomorphizing animals gets a bad rap in modern science, and how she sees that to be in conflict with her version of naturalism. We also get into death, both human and corvid, and just what it is that humans might occasionally give back to animals. Author’s Note is for fans of non fiction. Thanks for listening.
