Hungry Eyes

Sherri Harvey

About Hungry Eyes:

The Accidental Advocate, my next book-in-progress, explores interactions with animals that time and again, prove their wild intelligence. I have felt wonderment in recognizing an other, strange intelligence operating in this world. From elephants in South Africa, monkeys in Costa Rica, Belize and Germany, horses in Costa Rica and California, dogs from Taiwan, Belize and Costa Rica, I provide evidence of different kinds of intelligence in animals.

Our understanding of animal intelligence is obscured in a cloud of false assumptions and human egotism, but we can’t deny that they’re smart. Animals possess a much greater ability to glean information from their environment than we do. They hear softer sounds, see more subtle movement and can smell changes in our body chemistry that we are simply unable to match. They sense danger. They are curious and inquisitive. They problem-solve. They listen. They have stories to tell. These photos are a part of their story.
