Private Life by Kavit Anjal

This book delves into the often unnoticed lives of five animal species, uncovering their hidden daily routines and quiet existence. Through these stories, readers learn how animals navigate challenges such as changing seasons, scarce resources, and predators. Each creature has its own map for survival, using vocalizations, body language, and scents to communicate and defend its territory. The animals featured are not loud or overt; they move quietly through the world, creating small, safe spaces of their own. The stories offer intimate glimpses into their routines—whether it’s a hunt for food, a bath in the dust, or a nighttime vigil. The book emphasizes how animals have purposeful schedules, finding joy in simple acts and showing affection or courage in the face of adversity. By connecting with their daily lives, readers gain empathy and a deeper appreciation for the delicate balance that sustains the world around us.
