In this 2022 Special Issue of the Journalism and Media journal, communication professors Carrie Freeman and Núria Almiron curated scholarship assessing the impact this environmental havoc is having on nonhuman animals living in nature (including those free-roaming animals who coexist in our urban spaces) and the vital role that media and communication play in contributing to and remedying these crises. Seven scholars across the USA and Spain contributed chapters exploring how issues affecting ?wildlife? (such as octopuses, sharks, coyotes, parakeets, and fishes) are constructed in media and political discourses or are perceived and acted upon by public media, and the authors provide prescriptions to problems facing animals in nature, offering constructive guidance to communicators (from activists to journalists to film-makers). 606 $aHumanities$2bicssc 606 $aSocial interaction$2bicssc 610 $awhite sharks (Carcharodon carcharias) 610 $ashark-human conflict 610 $apredators/carnivores and perceived threat 610 $afear 610 $ascience 610 $apseudoscience 610 $aJaws 610 $amedia representation 610 $aTiger King 610 $aCOVID-19 media 610 $apopular culture 610 $azoos 610 $aquarantine 610 $acaptive wildlife 610 $acreative/critical animal and media studies 610 $arhetoric 610 $aenvironmental communication 610 $aeudaimonia 610 $aethos 610 $amore-than-human 610 $asensitized compassion 610 $asixth mass extinction 610 $aRacing Extinction 610 $aSeaspiracy 610 $amanta rays 610 $aanimal imagery 610 $acolonialism 610 $afishing 610 $ashark fin trade 610 $acoyotes 610 $adiscourse 610 $aneutralization techniques 610 $akilling contests 610 $awildlife management 610 $amonk parakeet 610 $aMadrid 610 $apress representation 610 $ainvasive species 610 $aconservationism 610 $acontrol methods 610 $aspeciesism 610 $aframing analysis 610 $atext analysis 610 $asentiment analysis 615 7$aHumanities 615 7$aSocial interaction 700 $aFreeman$b Carrie P$4edt$01145174 702 $aAlmiron$b Nu?ria$4edt 702 $aFreeman$b Carrie P$4oth 702 $aAlmiron$b Nu?ria$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910674048103321 996 $aCommunication in Defense of Nonhuman Animals during an Extinction and Climate Crisis$93059538 997 $aUNINA
