Animals, plants, aliens, ancestors, ghosts, mountains, the ocean – the more-than-human approach recruits ambassadors every year to assist training sensorial skills and intuitive forms of knowing. Take for example the horse herd, organized though non-predatory forms of power and leadership and the various group roles of: leader, dominant, nurturer, and sentinel, all assigned to different behaviors, duties and even producing specific hormones necessary for the continuation and flourishing of their familial herd. What could we ask them about companionship, telepathy, touch?
