Until Arks Everywhere Unmoor

In Until Arks Everywhere Unmoor, C.R. Dobson explores why encounters with wild animals and meeting their gaze have held such significance for us.
Forests, mountains, and seas don’t look back when we admire them. Animals often do. Every so often, an animal displays inquisitive behavior. Is this why they have become central figures in our myths, origin stories, and pop culture?
Although animals are symbols for us, they exist for themselves. They are participants, not merely pictures.
