520 "When Roger Henneous first dons his keeper uniform and
sets foot in the Oregon Zoo, he doesn't know what to
expect. But over his thirty-year career, Roger discovers
the joys, difficulties, and dangers of life in a zoo, all
the while maintaining an unwavering devotion to Belle,
Packy, and the rest of the Asian elephants in his care. As
their friend, Roger faces many risks-but his willingness
to learn their language and speak for the herd makes him
unique among his contemporaries. In return, the elephants
give Roger a rare level of trust and respect, reminding us
how much we can learn when we choose to listen. Elephant
Speak: A Devoted Keeper's Life Among the Herd takes place
in a time when ethical conversations about animal comfort,
safety, and enrichment in zoos were just beginning. More
than an evolutionary history of zookeeping, this unique
biography celebrates the extraordinary bonds between
humans and elephants and asks what we owe elephants, where
we have fallen short, and how we can move forward
together"--|cProvided by publisher.
