"Not being able to communicate to a squirrel verbally, we decided to name it, describe it, characterize it. And we chose a great word for it - an animal. We humans came up with this word. We named all the animals too. By naming them, categorizing .we opposed ourselves to animals." Fantasies on becoming a squirrel are the start of philosophical reflections on the human being and the Anthropocene.
