Eating Apes
By Dale Peterson.
Photographs and afterward by Karl Ammann.
Eating Apes is a compelling book that lets us all in on the brutal secrets of what is really happening to our closest relative, the African Great Apes-chimpanzees, gorillas and bonobos. This book delves into the details of how traditional consumption of wild animal meat in Africa has become a commercial enterprise. Dale Peterson makes us painfully aware of how this rate of slaughter could bring about the collapse of the Ape population. He argues that the American conservation media has failed us by not reporting this atrocity. Peterson brings us closer to stopping the collapse of the Ape before it is too late. Hardcover.
