It was interesting to read Mary Roach's deeply researched book alerting us to the problems of humans living with wildlife on this earth. Especially interesting was her outsider's view of N.Z's position on the aim of peaceful co-existence between animals and people.. Much to discuss but no easy solutions. Her aim was to help us think and consider all viewpoints.
