{"pk":40206,"title":"Red Tide and the Anthropological Divide at Lake Merritt in Oakland, California","subtitle":null,"abstract":"In this issue, Corey Ratch explores the less permeable divides at Monkey Hill, the London Zoo’s early twentieth-century baboon exhibit. Surrounded by unjumpable ditches, it forcefully articulated human/non-human distinctions. Just as Monkey Hill put human interventions in the natural world on display, so did a mass fish die-off in Lake Merritt. The August 2022 red tide algal bloom siphoned enough oxygen from the water to litter Lake Merritt’s edges with the asphyxiated bodies of fish, crustaceans, and mollusks. In the Anthropocene and the era of human induced climate change, clear anthropological divides are unsustainable.","language":"en","license":{"name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0","short_name":"CC BY 4.0","text":"Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
