We were just about to leave a supermarket in Gardiner, Montana, just outside the Northern entrance to Yellowstone National Park, when a woman roared into the parking lot on an all terrain vehicle. Her large German Shepherd shares the vehicle with her, a study in equanimity. The dog displays several human values in this context – protectiveness, composure, and mental calmness. The woman, of course, takes it all for granted. And the dog apparently enjoys the free ride.
