Scholars from sociology, history, anthropology, and literary and cultural studies investigate the presence of animals in human wars. The essays analyze a wide range of phenomena, including the new militarization of bees, zoo animals during war, war dogs, Finish horses in World War II, Canadian war literature, and the effort to memorialize nonhuman war animals. Although animals are often forced to participate in human wars, their presence also signals human vulnerability and dependence. Several chapters demonstrate that in the frequently horrible circumstances of war, powerful sympathies nonetheless flourish between humans and animals. Animals and War thus exposes the often paradoxical contours of human-animal relationships. 410 0$aHuman-Animal Studies$v15. 606 $aAnimals$xWar use 606 $aHuman-animal relationships 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAnimals$xWar use. 615 0$aHuman-animal relationships. 676 $a355.4 676 $a355.424 700 $aHediger$b Ryan$0936956 701 $aHediger$b Ryan$0936956 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462656303321 996 $aAnimals and war$92224516 997 $aUNINA
