Wildhood : the epic journey from adolescence to adulthood in humans and other animals

Natterson-Horowitz, Barbara2020
Books
Trekking the globe and drawing from their latest research, Barbara Natterson-Horowitz and Kathryn Bowers discovered that all animals and humans on the journey to adulthood face four core challenges: how to stay safe, negotiate status, navigate sexuality, and cultivate self-reliance. How human and animal adolescents meet these challenges shapes their adult destinies. They illuminate these four challenges through the real-life experiences of four wild animals tracked by scientists around the world. Through their stories and those of countless others, from rebellious eagles and stressed-out high schoolers to thrill-seeking orcas and malleable young soldiers, readers get a game-changing portrait of adolescents as planetwide tribe sharing behaviors and challenges, setbacks and triumphs.
