WAR AND ANIMALS

Animals were often an essential part of wars and conflict experiences  either as military
resource  as logistical element  or as comrade and friend of the human troops. How animals
actually shaped human wars and these experiences is discussed in detail in this volume. It
shows which roles different animals (horses  camels  dogs  reindeer etc.) played throughout
martial human history and how this role is remembered or commemorated until today. The authors
of the volume not only focus on the use of animals  but also on the human-animal relations that
were established and shaped by a shared war experience. The scope of the book is
chronologically broad  ranging from ancient to modern time periods  as well as geographically
global. All contributions intend to broaden our understanding of the role animals played
throughout our own violent past and the history of human made conflicts.
