Publisher Description

Learn how to decode the secret conversations of wild animals all around you.From a Yellowstone naturalist and renowned expert in animal language comes 'an engaging guide to a world of wonders hiding in plain sight.' (Peter Wohlleben, New York Times bestselling author of The Hidden Life of Trees).Humans once relied on the calls of wild animals to understand the natural world and their place within it. Now, this remarkable guide reveals what our ancestors knew long ago that tuning in to the owl in the tree, the deer in the gully, can tell us important information and help us feel connected to our wild community.In Eavesdropping on Animals, George Bumann shares the fascinating stories and insights he has gained from studying wildlife around the world for more than forty years, the last twenty of which have been spent leading popular programs on animal language and intelligence in Yellowstone National Park. Bumann shares tips, tricks, and advice for readers living in urban, suburban and rural areas and clearly shows us that you don't need an exotic vacation or a biology degree to have transformative wildlife encounters. Listening to and observing creatures in your own backyard, on nearby trails, and in local parks, seashores, fields, and forests can lead to extraordinary experiences and a profound sense of belonging.Are you ready to eavesdrop on your wild neighbours? Are you ready to learn how to tell a warning call from a mating call, a purr of satisfaction from idle chatter? Then this book is for you!'This book is fabulous and takes you close inside the wild world, where you feel the creatures whispering your old name.' Craig Foster, My Octopus Teacher
