by Susan Nance (Author)

Susan Nance investigates modernity for animals through the case of Jumbo the elephant in the 1880s. Jumbo exposed the 'human dilemma' of modern living, wherein people celebrated individual animals to cope or distract themselves from the wholesale slaughter of animals required by modern consumerism.
