Ep 36 - Anthrozoological Insights with Dr Aubrey Fine, pt 2/2.
Welcome to Episode 36 of the Anthrozoology Podcast. In this episode, we explore companion-animal - human connections, psychology, and interventions with renowned psychologist and anthrozoologist, Dr Aubrey Fine. Dr. Fine shares his career inspiration, challenges, and research interests in companion-animal-assisted therapy. He recounts his personal journey from a fear of companion-animals to working with them in therapy, combining clinical work, writing, and research in companion-animal-assisted interventions since the mid-1960s. Dr. Fine discusses using animals for therapy and communication with children, highlighting the introduction of his first pet, a gerbil named Sasha, to a program for children with learning disabilities in 1973.
Dr Fine describes the diverse range of companion-animals he works with, from dogs to lizards, and emphasizes the importance of respecting all as sentient beings. He shares personal stories, such as his connection with a bearded dragon named Spikey, who helped children with similar challenges. The episode also addresses the significance of companion-animal welfare, education, and agency, with Dr. Fine stressing the importance of recognising the non-verbal cues of companion-animals and respecting their boundaries.

In episode 32, we continue exploring canine anthropology with Marco Adda, the founder and director of AEDC (Anthrozoology Education Dogs Canines), and INS (Integral Neurosoma). Marco is an actor, scholar in canine-human relationships, educator, trainer, speaker, coach, and the host of the “In the Mouth of the Wolf” podcast. In this podcast episode, the symbiocene and the importance of humans cooperating with other species for mutual benefit. We reflect on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on human - otherthanhuman-animal relationships, particularly focusing on Bali's dog population amidst tourism pressures. We explore the idea of embodying animality and discuss the value of pretending to be animals as a research and educational tool by integrating somatic practices to deepen our understanding of human - otherthanhuman-animal connections.

In episode 29 we delve into the topic of grief. We are joined in this episode by Irene, a fellow researcher from the University of Exeter, who is just starting her PhD research on morethanhuman-animal grief. We frame the discussion by highlighting the various dimensions of grief, extending beyond the human realm to explore how animals, particularly social species like elephants, also experience and express grief.
