Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Zoology: A Book Devoted to Animals and Animal Life at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden Of course, in a book like this, it is not possible to be minutely descriptive, and so the author has aimed to tell as simply as possible what the attractions of the Gardens are and where they may be found, and gives a description, on a scientific basis, of the character and habits of many animals, birds and reptiles, with the hope that some thing may be found within the covers of the volume that will inspire more than one visitor to take up the careful study of Zoology - a branch of science one of the most useful because its study trains to habits of close observation and brings us near to nature's heart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World of Animal Life In this opening chapter we shall learn something about the Classification Of Animals; or, in other words, about the way in which animals are arranged by men of science. Now, perhaps you will think that this is a very dull and dry subject, and that it cannot be Of interest to those who know nothing about it. But in reality it is not dull at all. Indeed, it is almost as interesting to find out how different animals are related to one another, as it is to learn about their ways and habits; for in doing so we are led to examine their bodily frames, and to notice how wonderfully every part is suited to the life which the animals have to lead. Some of us may think that it cannot be necessary to know anything about this subject, and that anyone who is really fond of animals can study them quite well, without understanding their natural arrangement. But this, as we shall presently see, is a great mistake. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Animal Life in the Sea and on the Land written by Sarah Cooper and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Animal Life in the Sea and on the Land: A Zoology for Young People This book is offered to young people with the hope that it may help them in their studies of natural history. The pleasure of every ramble in the country or by the sea side is increased by an acquaintance with the animals and plants which are found by the way, and consequently these studies bring their own reward. It is far more charming to gain this knowledge from the objects themselves than from merely reading about them in books; and it is therefore hoped that each subject which is treated in these pages will be studied from Speci mens actually in hand, whenever it is possible to obtain them. The habit of collecting natural objects and curiosities is a helpful one; and if young students are careful to find out all they can about these objects, the collection Will in time represent an unexpected amount of positive knowl edge. The aim has been to make this little book accurate, and to bring it up to the present condition of science; at the same time scientific terms have been avoided when others could be substituted for them. Classification has not been made prominent, yet the arrangement of Nicholson has been adhered to throughout.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Secrets of Animal Life The authors are not prepared to Offer any solution of the problem of distant orientation in birds, but they have made a distinct step in proving that un trained birds can return successfully across the apparently trackless sea from a distance of 800 to 1000 miles. Dr. Lashley has Shown that for short distances on the island itself the terms adjust them selves to nest and mate and young on a basis largely of visual experience, helped a little by memory of movements, and sometimes by sounds.

Download or read book Sketches of Animal Life and Habits Classic Reprint written by Andrew Wilson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of Animal Life and Habits The present series of Sketches has been compiled with the view of affording general readers, and especially the young, some popular and yet trustworthy ideas regarding some of the most interesting groups of the animal world. The work may in fact be regarded as a natural history text-book adapted for use in Nature's school at large, and as a guide to the use of the observant powers, through the due exer cise of which all true ideas of Nature are acquired. Some of the Sketches have already appeared in Chambers's Journal, and are reprinted here with some additions, and with such alterations as were found to be necessary in adapting them for volume-form. The papers lay no claim to originality; but the day of grave errors in popular scien tific works is not yet past, and the author would fain hope that the Sketches may at least be found to possess the merit of correctness. The highest purpose this little work may serve is, that of fostering a love for the personal and direct observation of Nature. Knowledge so acquired invariably brings its own reward in the power it confers of discerning higher aspects in all the workes of Nature.' And as a result of such studies, we may say with Wordsworth of the most commonplace object around. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
