Here is the program, with abstracts, for the 4th international Minding Animals Conference, to be held in Mexico City January 17-24th.

First draft of chapter "The Semiotics of Wild Carnivore Management" composed

A few days ago I uploaded/submitted a first draft of my chapter "The Semiotics of Wild Carnivore Management", which is to be published in Spring 2016 as part of the collective monograph Semiotic Methods in the Study of Human-Animal Interactions (Tartu: Tartu University Press). The chapter was previously work-titled "Semiotics of Management of Wild Carnivores".
