Join Carl Safina and the nationally-syndicated radio show & podcast Living on Earth for the latest "Good Reads on Earth" virtual event at 7pm EST. Carl will discuss his latest book BECOMING WILD and the nonhuman cultures he explores in it.

Some people insist that culture is strictly a human feat. What are they afraid of? Becoming Wild looks into three cultures of other-than-human beings in some of Earth’s remaining wild places.

It shows how if you’re a sperm whale, a scarlet macaw, or a chimpanzee, you too experience your life with the understanding that you are an individual in a particular community. You too are who you are not by genes alone; your culture is a second form of inheritance. You receive it from thousands of individuals, from pools of knowledge passing through generations like an eternal torch.
