Book Fauna Boreali Americana  or  The Zoology of the Northern Parts of British America  Volume 1  The Mammals

Download or read book Fauna Boreali Americana or The Zoology of the Northern Parts of British America Volume 1 The Mammals written by John Richardson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-05 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir John Richardson (1787-1865), surgeon, naturalist and Arctic explorer, went on Sir John Franklin's first two Arctic expeditions as ship's doctor and naturalist, and made observations and collected a large number of plant and animal specimens from the Canadian Arctic. On his return to England after the second expedition he began to write this four-volume work of natural history, first published between 1829 and 1837. A volume is dedicated to each of the classes of mammal, bird, fish and insect, which are found in the Canadian Arctic. This work is an interesting example of pre-Darwinian natural history, full of detailed descriptions of the appearance, anatomy and behaviour of the different species. Volume 1, first published in 1829, focuses on mammals. Descriptions of the species sometimes include details of interactions between humans and that species; for example, unfortunate encounters between sailors and polar bears.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fauna Boreali-Americana, or the Zoology of the Northern Parts of British America, Vol. 2: Containing Descriptions of the Objects of Natural History Collected on the Late Northern Land Expeditions Under Command of Captain Sir John Franklin, R. N.; The Birds Science is indebted to the exertions of the Hudson's Bay Company for almost all that is known of the Ornithology of the American Fur countries; under which term we comprehend generally the whole country north of the forty-eighth parallel of latitude. The French Canadians were the first, indeed, who penetrated into the regions beyond the Great Lakes in pursuit of peltry; but the few journals of their proceedings that have come down to us, though rich in per sonal adventure, contribute nothing to Natural History, beyond incidental anecdotes of the animals that are objects of chase. In like manner, the earlier English navigators, who, in exploring Hudson's Bay and the Arctic Seas, aided in laying the foundation of the naval glory of their country, limited their notes on Zoology to brief remarks on the animals used for food, but seldom or never gave descriptions sufficiently characteristic to identify the species.
