Download or read book Barred Great Horned Owls written by Dr. Richard A. NeSmith and published by Applied Principles of Education & Learning. This book was released on 2021-09-13 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barred owls and great horned owls make up the largest portion of North American Owls. The great horned owl has the largest distribution and the larger in size of the two birds. These owls are infrequently seen as they are typically nocturnal. They steal the nests of other birds or of squirrels. They have nearly soundless flight, which among their other senses, enables them to hone in on their prey from a perched branch. Acute sight and hearing, along with specialized feathers enable these birds to locate, track and land directly on their prey. Very hardy and even ferocious hunters have given them the nickname, tigers of the woods.
Download or read book American Women of Science since 1900 2 volumes written by Tiffany K. Wayne and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-10-11 with total page 1226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive examination of American women scientists across the sciences throughout the 20th century, providing a rich historical context for understanding their achievements and the way they changed the practice of science. Much more than a "Who's Who," this exhaustive two-volume encyclopedia examines the significant achievements of 20th century American women across the sciences in light of the historical and cultural factors that affected their education, employment, and research opportunities. With coverage that includes a number of scientists working today, the encyclopedia shows just how much the sciences have evolved as a professional option for women, from the dawn of the 20th century to the present. American Women of Science since 1900 focuses on 500 of the 20th century's most notable American women scientists—many overlooked, undervalued, or simply not well known. In addition, it offers individual features on 50 different scientific disciplines (Women in Astronomy, etc.), as well as essays on balancing career and family, girls and science education, and other sociocultural topics. Readers will encounter some extraordinary scientific minds at work, getting a sense of the obstacles they faced as the scientific community faced the questions of feminism and gender confronting the nation as a whole.
Download or read book Biology and Conservation of Musteloids written by David Whyte Macdonald and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The musteloids are the most diverse super-family among carnivores, ranging from little known, exotic, and highly-endangered species to the popular and familiar, and include a large number of introduced invasives. They feature terrestrial, fossorial, arboreal, and aquatic members, ranging from tenacious predators to frugivorous omnivores, span weights from a 100g weasel to 30kg giant otters, and express a range of social behaviours from the highly gregarious to the fiercely solitary. Musteloids are the subjects of extensive cutting-edge research from phylogenetics to the evolution of sociality and through to the practical implications of disease epidemiology, introduced species management, and climate change. Their diversity and extensive biogeography inform a wide spectrum of ecological theory and conservation practice. The editors of this book have used their combined 90 years of experience working on the behaviour and ecology of wild musteloids to draw together a unique network of the world's most successful and knowledgeable experts. The book begins with nine review chapters covering hot topics in musteloid biology including evolution, disease, social communication, and management. These are followed by twenty extensive case studies providing a range of comprehensive geographic and taxonomic coverage. The final chapter synthesises what has been discussed in the book, and reflects on the different and diverse conservation needs of musteloids and the wealth of conservation lessons they offer. Biology and Conservation of Musteloids provides a conceptual framework for future research and applied conservation management that is suitable for graduate level students as well as professional researchers in musteloid and carnivore ecology and conservation biology. It will also be of relevance and use to conservationists and wildlife managers.
