We tend to think of culture as being exclusively human, but do animals have it too?
A New York Times Notable Book of 2020



‘Bracing and enlightening’ Science



Culture is something exclusive to human beings, isn’t it?



Not so, says intrepid researcher Carl Safina.



Becoming Wild reveals the rich cultures that survive in some of Earth’s remaining wild places. By showing how sperm whales, scarlet macaws and chimpanzees teach and learn, Safina offers a fresh understanding of what is constantly going on beyond humanity, and how we’re all connected.
