Learn moreAs an emergency room clinician four years out of veterinary school, Dr. Vint Virga had a life-changing experience: he witnessed the power of simple human contact and compassion to affect the recovery of a dog struggling to survive after being hit by a car. Observing firsthand the remarkably strong connection between humans and animals inspired him to explore the world from the viewpoint of animals and taught him to respect the kinship that connects us.
In The Soul of All Living Creatures, Virga draws from his decades in veterinary practice to reveal how we can enrich our own appreciation of life, enhance our character, nurture our relationships, and deepen our grasp of spirituality. Virga discerningly illuminates basic traits shared by both humans and animals and makes animal behavior meaningful, relevant, and easy to understand.
For over twenty-five years, Dr. Vint Virga has been a distinguished practitioner and leader in veterinary medicine, recognized for his insights into our relationships with animals. As a specialist in veterinary behavioral medicine and consultant to zoos and wildlife parks, his expertise spans the animal kingdom. He has been a featured guest on ABC World News, PBS's Nature, and National Geographic Explorer. Vint lives in southern New England with his wife, daughter, and their two Norwegian forest cats.
