Abstract
This chapter explores the expansion of translation studies to incorporate not only linguistic and non-linguistic processes of translation but also human and non-human translators. In particular, it entails an exploration into how interspecies translation occurs by means of translation of species-specific Umwelten. It regards the semiosic processes that occur during interaction between humans and non-humans as processes of translation, by giving equal consideration to the translational processes that occur during verbal and non-verbal interpreting at cart-horse clinics in South Africa.
