Working from historical photographic and anthropological records, the project constructs a visual and written record of these often-transient human-animal relationships, including cockatoos who spoke in Aboriginal language; companion brolgas; and the traditions of raising the young of cassowary, emu, and dingo. It explores different pathways towards shared human and nonhuman animal spaces and how they found common ground outside of a contemporary model of domestication.}, year = {2016}, journal = {Society and Animals}, volume = {24}, number = {1}, pages = {34-62}, issn = {10631119 (ISSN)}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84971301385&doi=10.1163%2f15685306-12341386&partnerID=40&md5=c5e08b0419481ef491d29e373cc0778e}, doi = {10.1163/15685306-12341386}, note = {Publisher: Brill Academic Publishers}, language = {English}, }
