Bones of Contention: Animals and Religion in Contemporary Japan
Barbara R. Ambros
Since the 1990s the Japanese pet industry has grown to a trillion-yen business with between 6,000 to 8,000 businesses in the Japanese pet funeral industry, including more than 900 pet cemeteries. Of these about 120 are operated by Buddhist temples, and Buddhist mortuary rites for pets have become an institutionalized practice. Bones of Contention is a book about how Japanese people feel and think about pets and other kinds of animals and, in turn, what pets and their people have to tell us about life and death in Japan today.
