  • Summary

  • For over 100,000 years, humans have developed a wide variety of rituals and practices after the death of their loved ones. But are humans the only animals that have these practices or exhibit grief? Katy and Laura dig into how elephants and lemurs are just two species that show that non-human animals mourn their dead in ways very similar to us.

    Warning: this episode contains examples and anecdotes of death and loss regarding both humans and animals.
