Vanished is an extremely interesting book that juxtaposes the human-caused extinction of animals (deliberate and accidental) with the extermination and genocide of human populations (deliberate and accidental) throughout history. Heartbreakingly, it seems that the extinction of animals was thought to be a problem worth solving long before anyone extended that same interest and care towards humans. We have lost so much.
A thought provoking read and such a damning indictment of colonialism..
