Download or read book Carnivorous Nights written by Margaret Mittelbach and published by Villard. This book was released on 2009-04-02 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Packing an off-kilter sense of humor and keen scientific minds, authors Margaret Mittelbach and Michael Crewdson take off with renowned artist Alexis Rockman on a postmodern safari. Their mission? Tracking down the elusive Tasmanian tiger. This mysterious, striped predator was once the world’s largest carnivorous marsupial. It had a pouch like a kangaroo and a jaw that opened impossibly wide to reveal terrifying choppers. Tragically, this rare and powerful animal was hunted into extinction in the early part of the twentieth century. Or was it? Journeying first to the Australian mainland and then south to the wild island of Tasmania, these young naturalists brave a series of bizarre misadventures and uproarious wildlife encounters in their obsessive search for the long-lost beast. From an ancient cave featuring an aboriginal painting of the tiger to a lab in Sydney where maverick scientists are trying to resurrect the animal through cloning, this intrepid trio comes face-to-face with blood-sucking land leeches and venomous bull ants, a misbehaving wallaby who invades their motel room, and a crew of flesh-eating, bone-crunching Tasmanian devils gorging on roadkill. They bond with trappers, bushwackers, and wildlife experts who refuse to abandon the tiger hunt, despite the paucity of evidence. Sifting through local myths, bar-room banter, and historical accounts, these environmental detectives sweep readers into a world where platypus’ swim, kangaroos roam, and a large predator with a pouch was–or perhaps still is–queen of the jungle. Filled with Alexis Rockman’s stunning drawings of flora and fauna–-made from soil, wombat scat, and the artist’s own blood–Carnivorous Nights is a hip and hilarious account of an unhinged safari, as well as a fascinating portrayal of a wildly unique part of the world.

Book excerpt: After her engagement falls apart just before St Valentine’s Day, Anemone Rose has an unpaid-for party and one hundred red roses going spare. Enter Will, Nick and Dan, who are not quite who they say they are, not where they ought to be, and not even what they claim to be. Nevertheless, these three blond giants have a proposal. They will take the roses off her hands. In return, Anemone may choose one of them as a substitute for her errant fiancé. Oh, and she’d better find two other lonely ladies—one each for the men she doesn’t choose. That’s only fair! Anemone chases them out of her shop with a mop and a bucket of water. That’s when she remembers Penny and Angel, whose delivery she messed up when her fiancé was messing her about back in November. Could they possibly be in the market for two men armed with thirty-three red roses and a naughty disposition? With hours to go before the men’s deal is off the table, Anemone heads to Mother Goose Lane for a crisis meeting with two women she barely knows.
