International in both its coverage and appeal, the volume includes a diverse range of case studies and examples, covering a variety of animal species, but also geographical and cultural contexts. In doing so, the book sheds light on the myriad ways in which animals, of all species, are impacted in a multitude of different ways by and through tourism and leisure experiences. To provide this analysis the book explores human relations with nonhuman animals through the lens of those we love, those we hate, and those we never bother to ‘see’. The book provides a discussion of why and how we, as humans in positions of power, need to see beyond our privileged humancentric positions to embrace our obligations to the animal other. In doing so, it asks difficult, but necessary, questions of tourism and leisure experiences that on initial inspection seem designed with nonhuman animal welfare at heart. The book critically reflects on whether such experiences are actually instances of humane washing and what is needed to take the tourism and leisure industry beyond this position. The need for the book reflects how we, as humans need to consider all animals when thinking of them in relation to tourism and leisure while moving beyond humancentric conceptualisations of nonhuman animal welfare and rights.
This volume is a pivotal resource for students, scholars and academics with an interest in tourism, hospitality, sustainability, zoology, geography and sociology.
Paul Tully is a PhD candidate at the University of Otago (New Zealand). Paul’s interests lie in the critical study of tourism and leisure. His current research is in the emerging research strand of multispecies tourism and leisure entanglements, which focus on animal welfare, rights, and issues of morality. His most recent work focuses on park duck ponds and the consequences of human-animal entanglements in such places. To date, Paul has authored (or co-authored) 23 publications. He has recently co-edited a special issue of the World Leisure Journal on the topic of human-animal entanglements in leisure. Neil Carr is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Otago (New Zealand). Neil’s work is grounded in notions of power, welfare, wellbeing and rights. He has explored these within the contexts of children and families, animals and sex, utilising the lenses of leisure and tourism to do so. The brains behind all of this are only stymied by their lack of opposable thumbs, which give them the ideal excuse to laze around for most of the day, proving their intelligence in the process.
