Abstract

This piece introduces a special issue tackling the theme of ‘animal geographies at the limits’. An opening section argues that work on ‘animal geography’ in its older zoogeographical guise, but with suggestions of a growing interest in human-animal relations, has long been a feature of the Scottish Geographical Journal. It continues by outlining the background to the current special issue, explaining what the guest editors understand by the ‘limits’ of (now-not-so-) ‘new animal geographies’ as a subfield rooted in academic human geography but with many interdisciplinary connections. It concludes by mapping across from the limits that we have identified into the contributions that follow.
