How much of our rituals around death are learned from animals? Animal behaviorist Dr. Kaeli Swift explores the life and death habits of our non-human neighbors and shares what their responses could reveal about our own relationship to mortality. This talk was filmed at TEDxSalem. All TEDx events are organized independently by volunteers in the spirit of TED's mission of ideas worth spreading.
