Our Animal Neighbors by Sitting Bull

Behold, my brothers, the

spring has come; the earth

has received the embraces

of the sun and we shall

soon see the results of that

     love!

Every seed has awakened

and so has all animal life. 

It is through this

mysterious power that we

too have our being and we

therefore yield to our

neighbors, even our 

animal neighbors, the

same right as ourselves, to 

inhabit this land. 

Tatanka Yotanka, Sitting Bull
