Through Animals’ Eyes, Again

Stories of Wildlife Rescue

Lynn Marie Cuny
From the author of Through Animals' Eyes come more true stories 
from the rare perspective of someone who not only cares for the 
animals she treats, but also has never wanted nor tried to tame or 
change them. Lynn Cuny founded Wildlife Rescue and 
Rehabilitation (WRR) in 1977 in her backyard in San Antonio. It has 
since grown to 187 acres and now rescues more than 7,000 animals 
annually and maintains an emergency hotline 365 days a year. Native 
animals are released back into the wild, and those non-native or 
severely injured animals that cannot be released become permanent 
Sanctuary residents. Through her stories, Lynn hopes to dispel the 
belief that animals do not reason, have emotions, or show 
compassion for each other.

Lynn's stories cover the humorous and the tragic, the surprising and the inevitable. The animals she describes range from the orphaned baby Rhesus monkey who found a new mother in an old monkey rescued from a lab, to the brave red-tailed hawk who was illegally shot, but healed to soar again. The stories will touch your heart and help you see "through animals' eyes." _________________________________________________________ LYNN MARIE CUNY is the author of Through Animals' Eyes: True Stories from a Wildlife Sanctuary from UNT Press. She is a native of San Antonio.

What people are saying about this book

"These true accounts, as amazing as some of them are with their unlikely bondings (a porcupine and a rabbit, a duck and a cat) will captivate, fascinate, educate, and often move you deeply. It's an inspiring read for animal advocates and a must-read for those who have not been exposed to the beautiful experiences of the animal- animal bond."—Loretta Swit, actress

"Even a veteran worker in the humane environment will be awed and inspired by Lynn Cuny's experiences. At the same time, her writing style makes every true story a little gem."—Earl Holliman, actor
