In Sisters of the Jungle, McGoogan combines stories about her own studies of howler monkeys (the loudest living primate) and lemurs (the most endangered group of animals on the planet) with those of the women who paved the way.

They have an inner peace that seems to offset their power and strength. That may explain why no other animal on the planet is as revered as the bear.
