Guest Bio:
Professor Clive D. L. Wynne, Ph.D. hails from the UK and has lived and worked in Germany and Australia in addition to the United States where he is now based.  Wynne melds his wide personal experience with dogs and wolves with a deep professional involvement in the science of canids. His primary area of research is the behavior and cognition of dogs in interaction with humans, but he has also published on canine genetics and collaborates with archaeologists and anthropologists in understanding the origin of dogs.  His research papers count among the most highly-cited studies on dog psychology. He is the author of a textbook, now in its third edition, Animal Cognition, and Do Animals Think? (Princeton University Press 2004), an academic book on animal intelligence. His research is also regularly featured in many news media, and he is often called on to offer an opinion on the latest findings. He has appeared in several television documentaries about dogs on CBC, PBS, BBC, Netflix among others. His online class on dog behavior on EdX.org has been taken by over 18,000 people.
