Top of Form Bottom of Form Story Begins: Once upon a time. In a far-off land, where the sun always shone and the breeze was always warm, there lived a tribe of creatures called the Mammoths. These were gentle giants, who roamed the verdant forests that surrounded their home, in search of food and play. They were proud and majestic creatures, with long tusks that curved up towards the sky, and thick, shaggy fur that protected them from the elements. The Mammoths were a peaceful tribe, and they lived in harmony with all the other creatures in the forest. They were known for their kindness and their generosity, and many of the smaller creatures in the forest looked up to them as protectors and friends. The Mammoths had a deep connection to nature and the world around them. They knew every inch of the forest and could navigate through it with ease, using their keen sense of smell and their powerful memories. They understood the seasons and the cycles of nature, and they lived in balance with the land, taking only what they needed and giving back what they could. Despite their size and strength, the Mammoths were not invincible. They faced challenges and dangers in their world, just like any other creature. There were predators in the forest, who saw the Mammoths as a source of food. There were harsh winters, where food and water were scarce, and the Mammoths had to rely on their instincts and their resilience to survive. But the Mammoths were not afraid of these challenges. They faced them head-on, with bravery and courage. They had a deep sense of community, and they looked out for each other, sharing food and resources when times were tough. They knew that they were stronger together than they were alone, and they worked as a team to overcome any obstacle. One of the greatest challenges that the Mammoths faced was the encroachment of humans on their land. As humans began to settle in the nearby valleys, they started to clear the forests, destroying the Mammoths' natural habitat. The Mammoths watched with sadness as their home was destroyed, and they knew that they had to do something to protect themselves and their land. The Mammoths organized themselves into a council, with the wisest and most experienced among them leading the way. They decided that they needed to take action to stop the humans from destroying their home. They began to reach out to other creatures in the forest, forming alliances and building coalitions. Together, the Mammoths and their allies worked to raise awareness about the destruction of the forest. They talked to the humans, trying to reason with them and persuade them to stop cutting down the trees. They organized protests and demonstrations, trying to get the attention of the wider world and bring pressure to bear on humans. The Mammoths knew that they faced an uphill battle, but they were determined to protect their home. They knew that the forest was not just their home, but the home of countless other creatures as well, and they felt a deep responsibility to protect it. As time went on, the Mammoths and their allies began to make progress. They convinced some of the humans to stop cutting down the trees, and they worked with others to create protected areas within the forest. They continued to raise awareness and to fight for their cause, even in the face of resistance and opposition. Eventually, the humans began to see the error of their ways. They realized that they had been destroying something precious and irreplaceable, and they started to work with the Mammoths and their allies to protect the forest. They set up conservation programs and reforestation projects, and they started to work towards a future where humans and nature could coexist in harmony. The Mammoths watched with pride as their home was restored and protected. They knew that their efforts had made a difference, and they felt a deep sense of satisfaction and gratitude. They had worked tirelessly to protect their home, and their hard work had paid off. Over time, the Mammoths became known as champions of the forest. They were respected and admired by all the creatures in the forest, who saw them as symbols of strength and determination. They continued to live in harmony with nature, cherishing the land that they had fought so hard to protect. Despite the challenges that they had faced, the Mammoths remained optimistic about the future. They knew that there would always be challenges and obstacles to overcome, but they felt confident in their ability to face them with bravery and resilience. The Mammoths were used to spending their days playing and having fun in the forest. They would roam around, grazing on the lush greenery, splashing in the streams, and playing games with each other. They enjoyed the simple pleasures of life and never worried about the future. But one day, something unusual happened. The sky, which was always blue and clear, began to change. It started with a faint haze, which gradually grew thicker and darker. The Mammoths, who were playing a game of tag, paused to look up at the sky. They saw a huge, ominous cloud moving towards them, covering the sun, and casting a deep shadow over the forest. The Mammoths were confused and frightened. They had never seen anything like this before and didn't know what to make of it. They looked at each other, wondering if they should run or hide, but they could not move. The sky continued to darken, and the cloud grew closer and larger. The Mammoths could hear strange rumbling sounds coming from the cloud, and they felt the ground shaking beneath their feet. Suddenly, the cloud burst open, and a fierce storm descended upon the forest. The wind howled, the rain poured down in sheets, and lightning flashed across the sky. The Mammoths huddled together, trying to find shelter from the storm, but there was none.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascinating saga of solving the mystery of this ancient animal who once roamed the north country—and has captivated our collective imagination ever since. Today, we know that a mammoth is an extinct type of elephant that was covered with long fur and lived in the north country during the ice ages. But how do you figure out what a mammoth is if you have no concept of extinction, ice ages, or fossils? Long after the last mammoth died and was no longer part of the human diet, it still played a role in human life. Cultures around the world interpreted the remains of mammoths through the lens of their own worldview and mythology. When the ancient Greeks saw deposits of giant fossils, they knew they had discovered the battle fields where the gods had vanquished the Titans. When the Chinese discovered buried ivory, they knew they had found dragons’ teeth. But as the Age of Reason dawned, monsters and giants gave way to the scientific method. Yet the mystery of these mighty bones remained. How did Enlightenment thinkers overcome centuries of myth and misunderstanding to reconstruct an unknown animal? The journey to unravel that puzzle begins in the 1690s with the arrival of new type of ivory on the European market bearing the exotic name "mammoth." It ends during the Napoleonic Wars with the first recovery of a frozen mammoth. The path to figuring out the mammoth was traveled by merchants, diplomats, missionaries, cranky doctors, collectors of natural wonders, Swedish POWs, Peter the Great, Ben Franklin, the inventor of hot chocolate, and even one pirate. McKay brings together dozens of original documents and illustrations, some ignored for centuries, to show how this odd assortment of characters solved the mystery of the mammoth and, in doing so, created the science of paleontology.

If anything, this showcase anthology proves that sometimes the female of the species can also be the most terrifying . . .

Download or read book The Fruits of Empire written by Shana Klein and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fruits of Empire is a history of American expansion through the lens of art and food. In the decades after the Civil War, Americans consumed an unprecedented amount of fruit as it grew more accessible with advancements in refrigeration and transportation technologies. This excitement for fruit manifested in an explosion of fruit imagery within still life paintings, prints, trade cards, and more. Images of fruit labor and consumption by immigrants and people of color also gained visibility, merging alongside the efforts of expansionists to assimilate land and, in some cases, people into the national body. Divided into five chapters on visual images of the grape, orange, watermelon, banana, and pineapple, this book demonstrates how representations of fruit struck the nerve of the nation’s most heated debates over land, race, and citizenship in the age of high imperialism.

Book excerpt: The bestselling author of The Accidental Billionaires and The 37th Parallel tells the fascinating Jurassic Park­-like story of the genetic restoration of an extinct species—the woolly mammoth. “Paced like a thriller…Woolly reanimates history and breathes new life into the narrative of nature” (NPR). With his “unparalleled” (Booklist, starred review) writing, Ben Mezrich takes us on an exhilarating and true adventure story from the icy terrain of Siberia to the cutting-edge genetic labs of Harvard University. A group of scientists work to make fantasy reality by splicing DNA from frozen woolly mammoth into the DNA of a modern elephant. Will they be able to turn the hybrid cells into a functional embryo and potentially bring the extinct creatures to our modern world? Along with this team of brilliant scientists, a millionaire plans to build the world’s first Pleistocene Park and populate a huge tract of the Siberian tundra with ancient herbivores as a hedge against an environmental ticking time bomb that is hidden deep within the permafrost. More than a story of genetics, this is a thriller illuminating the real-life race against global warming, of the incredible power of modern technology, of the brave fossil hunters who battle polar bears and extreme weather conditions, and the ethical quandary of cloning extinct animals. This “rollercoaster quest for the past and future” (Christian Science Monitor) asks us if we can right the wrongs of our ancestors who hunted the woolly mammoth to extinction and at what cost?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With 1.2 billion members, the Catholic Church is the world's largest organization and perhaps its most controversial. The Church's obstinacy on matters like clerical celibacy, the role of women, birth control, and the child abuse scandal has alienated many Catholics, especially in the West. Yet in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, the Church is highly esteemed for its support of education, health, and social justice. In this deeply informed book, Robert Calderisi unravels the paradoxes of the Catholic Church's role in the developing world over the past 60 years. Has the Catholic Church on balance been a force for good? Calderisi weighs the Church's various missteps and poor decisions against its positive contributions, looking back as far as the Spanish Conquest in Latin America and the arrival of missionaries in Africa and Asia. He also looks forward, highlighting difficult issues that threaten to disrupt the Church's future social role. The author's answer to the question he poses will fascinate Catholic and non-Catholic readers alike, providing a wealth of insights into international affairs, development economics, humanitarian concerns, history, and theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insider's view on bringing extinct species back to life Could extinct species, like mammoths and passenger pigeons, be brought back to life? In How to Clone a Mammoth, Beth Shapiro, an evolutionary biologist and pioneer in ancient DNA research, addresses this intriguing question by walking readers through the astonishing and controversial process of de-extinction. From deciding which species should be restored to anticipating how revived populations might be overseen in the wild, Shapiro vividly explores the extraordinary cutting-edge science that is being used to resurrect the past. Considering de-extinction's practical benefits and ethical challenges, Shapiro argues that the overarching goal should be the revitalization and stabilization of contemporary ecosystems. Looking at the very real and compelling science behind an idea once seen as science fiction, How to Clone a Mammoth demonstrates how de-extinction will redefine conservation's future.
