Humane TalkHumane Talk (11-3-2014) #8030: Dr. Con Slobodchikoff has spent his life describing the language of prairie dogs — a fascinating little animal often treated as a pest to be eradicated. Dr. Con writes about his discovery that there is a flaw in the general human belief that we are superior to other animals because we are the only species to have language. His book CHASING DR. DOOLITTLE: Learning the Language of Animals explains what his thirty years of research has taught him about our need to have respect for the abilities of many other species.
