Last but not at all least, @VictoriaMShea tells us about research into enslaved people and dogs in Antebellum American South - the historical weaponisation of dogs as ‘biopolitical tools’ of enslavement, and power of companionship between enslaved people and dogs. #PASS2021
Our last 5min thesis comes from @RR_Cotter, who discusses the lack of animal 'voices' in Pope Francis' Laudato Si, despite its environmental messages #PASS2021
PANEL 5. Many thanks @NicoleGosling3 for an excellent paper on 'Locating the Animal in Veterinary Investigations of Livestock Disease: A Case Study of Footrot in Sheep.' A thoughtful consideration of the role that sheep have played as actors in the history of footrot #PASS2021
PANEL 5. Big thanks to Holly Marriott Webb & @AniMullan for their amazing paper 'We’re Going on a Goat Hunt: Dual-Perspective Multispecies Ethnography in the Cheviots.' An intriguing & informative insight into their explorative multispecies ethnography of people & wild goats.
