Kailyn Carr (she/her) is a Masters student in the Department of English at Michigan State University. She has completed her Bachelors of Science in Animal Behavior with a double major and honors in Literary Studies in 2022 at Bucknell University in Lewisburg, PA. Her interests focus on the interdisciplinary relationship between Animal Studies and Feminist Theory, which have culminated in her undergraduate honors thesis titled “Finding Identity in the Intersections: Transnational Feminisms and the Non-Human Primate,” where she examines and offers a critical analysis of how Western colonial structures position the concept of “man” to dominate other identities, specifically “woman” and non-human primate.
