Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From sniffing out a meal to finding a mate, species throughout the animal kingdom use their sense of smell every day. While most animals use their noses to smell, such as cats, dogs, and humans, others use different parts of their bodies. For example, bees use their antennae, snakes use their tongues, and butterflies use their legs. A good sense of smell can allow animals to survive in dark, underground habitats. It can help others locate food sources in the vast oceans or the driest of deserts. In this book, readers can find out about how animals' and people's senses of smell work and why this sense is essential for most creatures' everyday lives.

  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 1990-11-29
  • ISBN : 9780521395618
  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book The Scented Ape written by David Michael Stoddart and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1990-11-29 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both men and women devote time and effort to removing natural body odour and replacing it with sexual attractant odours derived from plants and animals - we seem to need to smell of something other than people! Yet of all the apes, we are the most richly endowed with scent producing glands. This book examines the sense of smell in humans, comparing it with the known functions of the same sense in other animals. Odorous cues play a role in sexual physiology and behaviour in animals and there are claims that odour can play the same role in humans. The place of odours and scents in aesthetics and in psychoanalysis serves to illustrate the link between the emotional centres and the brain. The book presents arguments to explain the way in which our ancestral past has given rise to our modern day olfactory enigmas. The material is presented with as much explanation of the technical detail as possible to make the book accessible to a wide readership.

Book Olfaction in Animal Behaviour and Welfare

Download or read book Olfaction in Animal Behaviour and Welfare written by Birte L Nielsen and published by CABI. This book was released on 2017-06-29 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence-based, yet entirely practical, this important new text builds upon the basics of neuroscience to describe the links between olfaction and animal behaviour, and the effects of odours in animal welfare. Animals use smells in a multitude of ways: to orientate themselves, to create social bonds, to recognise food, to initiate reproduction, and to avoid predators and imminent threats such as fire. Starting from the scientific basis of olfaction and odour perception, the book covers pheromones and behavioural tests, before describing the role of olfaction in feeding behaviour, reproduction, disease detection, and animal housing. This is a captivating introduction to the world of smells, suitable for advanced students, researchers, and teachers of applied ethology, animal welfare and veterinary science.

  • Author : Frank Rosell
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2018-04-13
  • ISBN : 022653653X
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book Secrets of the Snout written by Frank Rosell and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dogs and humans have worked side by side for thousands of years, and over the millennia we’ve come to depend upon our pooches as hunters, protectors, and faithful companions. But when it comes to the extraordinary quality of man’s best friend which we rely on most, the winner is clear—by a nose. In Secrets of the Snout, Frank Rosell blends storytelling and science as he sniffs out the myriad ways in which dogs have been trained to employe their incredible olfactory skills, from sussing out cancer and narcotics to locating endangered and invasive species, as well as missing persons (and golf balls). With 300 million receptors to our mere 5 million, a dog’s nose is estimated to be between 100,000 and 100 million times more sensitive than a human’s. No wonder, then, that our nasally inferior species has sought to unleash the prodigious power of canine shnozzes. Rosell here takes us for a walk with a pack of superhero sniffers including Tutta, a dog with a fine nose for fine wine; the pet-finder pooch AJ; search-and-rescue dog Barry; the hunting dog Balder; the police dogs Rasko and Trixxi; the warfare dog Lisa; the cancer detection dog Jack; Tucker, who scents floating killer whale feces; and even Elvis, who can smell when you’re ovulating. With each dog, Rosell turns his nose to the evolution of the unique olfactory systems involved, which odors dogs detect, and how they do it. A celebration of how the canine sense for scents works—and works for us—Secrets of the Snout will have dog lovers, trainers, and researchers alike all howling with delight. Exploring this most pointed of canine wonders, Rosell reveals the often surprising ways in which dogs are bettering our world, one nose at a time.
