I founded Kerulos in 2008 in response to the overwhelming interest that resulted from my scientific recognition of free-living Elephant Post-Trauma Stress Disorder (PTSD). This work draws from a masters in geophysics and doctorates in ecology and psychology. Following my dissertation work, I extended neuropsychology of trauma and trauma healing to Chimpanzees, Orcas, Parrots, and other Animals. I published extensively including a series of books which include the Pulitzer Prize-nominated Elephants on the Edge: What Animals Teach Us about Humanity, and Carnivore Minds: Who These Fearsome Animals Really Are, Talking with Bears: Conversations with Charlie Russell, and The Evolved Nest: Bringing Parenting Back to Nature (North Atlantic Books, 2023)—all of which use neuroscience as a heuristic to show how Animals share with humans the same brain capacities which underlie thinking and feeling. I formally established The Tortoise and the Hare Sanctuary, which has now evolved into Grace Village, to provide trauma-responsive lifetime care for refugee Rabbits, endangered disabled Desert Tortoises, Turkeys and kaparos Chickens.
