Learning to be Wild

From New York Times–bestselling author Carl Safina comes a young readers adaptation of the notable book Becoming Wild that explores community, culture, and belonging through chimpanzees, macaws, and sperm whales.

What do chimpanzees, macaws, and whales all have in common?

Some believe that culture is strictly a human phenomenon. But that's not true! Culture is passed down from parent to child in all sorts of animal communities. It is the common ground that three very different animals— chimps, macaws, and whales—all share!

Peek behind the curtain of life on Earth, to witness through the lives of chimpanzees in Uganda, scarlet macaws in Peru, and sperm whales in the Caribbean how they—and we—are all connected.

A smart, accessible, superbly fascinating look into the lives of three distinct animals we share the Earth with, by New York Times–bestselling and award-winning author Carl Safina.
