Исследования последних десятилетий показали, что пропасть между психикой человека и психикой животных гораздо меньше, чем кажется. Порой речь идет и не о пропасти даже, а так—о небольшом зазоре.

In Wilderlands, archaeologist Eloise Kane unearths 12,000 years of our changing relationship with and influence on the landscape. Through prehistory, Roman occupation, the Middle Ages and beyond, we see the unfamiliar beasts of our old wild make way for species such as brown hare and fallow deer, now romanticised as eternal symbols of the British countryside, but introduced much later than we might think.
