On the evening of October 16, 1984, the body of four-year-old Grégory Villemin was pulled out of the Vologne river in Eastern France. The little boy had disappeared from the front garden of his home in Lépanges-sur-Vologne earlier that afternoon. His mother had searched desperately all over the small village, but nobody had seen him. It quickly became clear that his death wasn’t a tragic accident.

On a Sunday morning in February 2014, after a favourite breakfast of rye bread, 18-month-old giraffe Marius was killed with a penetrative captive bolt fired at his head by veterinary staff at Copenhagen zoo. His body was later cut up in front of a crowd of visitors that included several open-mouthed children, and then fed to the zoo’s lions. Marius was neither dangerous nor ill. The zoo argued he had to die because his genes were too common for him to be suitable for breeding.

My latest piece for @NoemaMag is about the connection between languages and nature. Where plant and animal species are disappearing, languages, dialects and unique expressions often follow a similar pattern of decline.
