The latest title in the blockbuster series, BIRDS brings you up close and personal with eight different bird species in astounding motion. Seeing is believing with the innovative and bestselling Photicular books, and now Birds gives readers a fascinating, up close look at bird behavior in living motion. The book features eight incredible moving images: Penguins hopping, Grebes in an elaborate courtship dance, preening lovebirds, the blinking eyes of an owl, geese migrating in V formation, a hummingbird sipping nectar from a flower and a mother songbird feeding it's new hatchlings. The opening essay focuses on the incredible of birds and bird behaviors-the weird, the surprising-and birds' incredible ability to learn new behaviors. And the profile accompanying each animal image includes information on each species. It's an aviary that you can hold in your hands!

'An excellent, useful guide.' - BBC WildlifeFully revised and updated, this major work presents all species that occur in the Western Palearctic, serving as the perfect field guide to the great diversity of mammals in the region. This new edition presents 86 new species, including 40 cetaceans, and reports on the latest scientific advances and taxonomic changes. Species accounts are concise and authoritative, giving information on size, distribution, habitat, behaviour, reproduction and feeding. Each account is supported by distribution maps and superb colour illustrations. The book features over 125 plates, comprising more than 650 colour species artworks. Variation between the sexes is illustrated, and anatomical diagrams including tooth arrays are provided to assist identification. Field Guide to Mammals of Europe, North Africa and the Middle East is the only guide you'll need to identify any mammal across this vast and diverse region.

Animal Lives

"Fongoli chimpanzees are unique for many reasons. Their female hunters are the only apes that regularly hunt with tools (tiny bush babies with wooden spears). Unlike most other chimps, these apes fear neither water nor fire, using shallow pools to cool off in the Senegalese heat. More than ninety percent of their home range burns annually-the result of human hunting or clearing for gold mining-and these apes have learned to predict the movement of such fires and to avoid them. The study of Fongoli chimps is also unique; while most primate research occurs in isolated reserves, Fongoli chimpanzees live alongside humans. As primatologist and anthropologist Jill Pruetz reports, this shared habitat creates both challenges and opportunities. The issues faced by Fongoli chimpanzees-particularly food scarcity and environmental degradation-are also issues faced by people living alongside them. This connection is one reason Pruetz, who has studied Fongoli apes for over two decades, created the non-profit Neighbor Ape in 2008 to help provide for the welfare of humans and their shared animal community. It is also why Pruetz decided to write this book, which is the first to offer readers a view of these chimps' lives and to explain specific conservation efforts needed to help them. Incorporating stories from her field work, including a compelling rescue mission of a young chimp from hunters, this book will be fascinating to anyone interested in animals and conservation"--

Apes on the Edge

"Offers insights into the social and cultural implications of humans' relationships with rats and the natural world. Apart from the occasional pet owner who has rats, most people regard rats as disease-carrying nocturnal pests, scurrying around dumpsters and dragging slices of pizza through New York City subways. Since rats are seemingly omnipresent in human life, why do we harbor such negative feelings about them, and why are they among the creatures most frequently targeted for systematic extermination? In Bad Nature, sociologist Andrew McCumber draws out the cultural underpinnings of rat extermination across three countries and two continents. Drawing from ethnographic, interview, and textual data from the frigid prairie of Alberta, Canada; the heart of downtown Los Angeles, California; and the iconic Galâapagos Islands of Ecuador, McCumber studies how humans have sought to suppress and exterminate rat populations in a variety of environmental, social, and political situations. He shows how, in these disparate locations, rat control is a social practice that draws and clarifies the spatial and symbolic boundaries between "good" and "bad" forms of nature. Rats are near the bottom of a symbolic hierarchy of species that places human life at the top, companion animals and majestic wildlife just below them, and the "invasive species" that call for systematic extermination at the very bottom. This hierarchy of living things that places rats at the bottom, McCumber argues, mirrors human systems of social inequalities and power dynamics. Both original and engaging, Bad Nature urges readers to consider, when charting a just and sustainable future, where will the rats be placed in the worlds we envision?"--

Human olfaction - the sense of smell - enables us to appreciate food and drink, it warns us of dangers and it makes our environments more enjoyable. However, olfaction is one of our least explored sensory systems. Until now.
