Abstract: Prompted by the loss of a beloved pet, this essay provides a mirror into our relationship and connection to the non-human world and the tenuous attachment we have to our own wild natures. Civilized out of wildness with the imperative that all that is not human is of lesser intrinsic value, the essay touches on the human-animal relationship, attachment theory and the ecological self, the grief and loss cycle, and our growing awareness of a greater planetary loss. The essay takes a very personal experience and attempts to weave larger understandings concerning the interconnected web of life using eco-psychological theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
