Abstract
ABSTRACT This introduction to this special issue of Comparative American Studies outlines the significance of animals - in particular animal representations - to the US imagination. As the two national animals, the bald eagle and the American bison encapsulate some of the paradoxes characteristic of American animals: charged with symbolic force but nearly driven to extinction - only to become part of American success stories of conservation and restoration.
