This is an open paper session that asks sociologists to consider the myriad ways animals are present in sociological inquiry. It welcomes papers from scholars who are well versed in animals and society scholarship as well as from those whose work may involve animals (be it through natural scientific practice, political history, analysis of gender or race, environment, or something else) but have yet to fully engage animals and society scholarship.
