“When a carnivore section zookeeper meets the beautiful and rare creature named Dakota, she doesn’t know that this relationship between lynx and woman, as unique and mysterious as the two are themselves, will change her life forever.” “The relationship begins with the Keeper and the Kept establishing trust in a cage. The story builds to fierce defense, dependence, heartbreak, and healing. It relates a profound spiritual journey that transforms Krishna herself. This is a love story, a remarkable account of Krishna’s journey through the animal’s brilliance as star attraction in a small town zoo, to her struggle to survive.” “The author provides details of scientific observation and veterinary procedures, along with lynx and human behavior. The book becomes an informative reference for anyone who works with animals, from cruelty prevention and rights advocates to care professionals and biologists – as well as lovers of cats of whatever stripes, big or small, domestic or wild.” “Dakota’s Story is a poignant chronicle, an intimate glimpse into the matrix of life and death. Heartwarming as well as heart-breaking, it is bound to be among the finest pieces of writing you will find anywhere.” |
