Download or read book The Gerbil Farmer s Daughter written by Holly Robinson and published by Crown. This book was released on 2010-06-29 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “What kind of Navy officer sits on his ship in the middle of the Mediterranean dreaming of gerbils?” That’s the question that Holly Robinson sets out to answer in this warm and rollicking memoir of life with her father, the world’s most famous gerbil czar. Starting with a few pairs of gerbils housed for curiosity’s sake in the family’s garage, Donald Robinson’s obsession with the “pocket kangaroo” developed into a lifelong passion and second career. Soon the Annapolis-trained Navy commander was breeding gerbils and writing about them for publications ranging from the ever-bouncy Highlights for Children to the erudite Science News. To support his burgeoning business, the family eventually settled on a remote hundred-acre farm with horses, sheep, pygmy goats, peacocks–and nearly nine thousand gerbils. From part-time model for her father’s bestselling pet book, How to Raise and Train Pet Gerbils, to full-time employee in the gerbil empire’s complex of prefab Sears buildings, Holly was an enthusiastic if often exasperated companion on her father’s quest to breed the perfect gerbil. Told with heart, humor, and affection, The Gerbil Farmer’s Daughter is Holly’s ode to a weird and wonderful upbringing and her truly one-of-a-kind father.

Download or read book Mercy For Animals written by Nathan Runkle and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling look at animal welfare and factory farming in the United States from Mercy For Animals, the leading international force in preventing cruelty to farmed animals and promoting compassionate food choices and policies. Nathan Runkle would have been a fifth-generation farmer in his small midwestern town. Instead, he founded our nation’s leading nonprofit organization for protecting factory farmed animals. In Mercy For Animals, Nathan brings us into the trenches of his organization’s work; from MFA’s early days in grassroots activism, to dangerous and dramatic experiences doing undercover investigations, to the organization’s current large-scale efforts at making sweeping legislative change to protect factory farmed animals and encourage compassionate food choices. But this isn’t just Nathan’s story. Mercy For Animals examines how our country moved from a network of small, local farms with more than 50 percent of Americans involved in agriculture to a massive coast-to-coast industrial complex controlled by a mere 1 percent of our population—and the consequences of this drastic change on animals as well as our global and local environments. We also learn how MFA strives to protect farmed animals in behind-the-scenes negotiations with companies like Nestlé and other brand names—conglomerates whose policy changes can save countless lives and strengthen our planet. Alongside this unflinching snapshot of our current food system, readers are also offered hope and solutions—big and small—for ending mistreatment of factory farmed animals. From simple diet modifications to a clear explanation of how to contact corporations and legislators efficiently, Mercy For Animals proves that you don’t have to be a hardcore vegan or an animal-rights activist to make a powerful difference in the lives of animals.

Book excerpt: Located in the far northwest hills of Oakland County, Holly is a vibrant community with a rich cultural heritage rooted in commerce and transportation. In 1864, it became the first Michigan community with a railroad junction, called the Holly and Flint line. The Holly, Wayne and Monroe Railroad was introduced in 1870 and later consolidated with the Holly and Flint line to become the Flint and Pere Marquette. As the railroad brought new growth to the village, Holly quickly developed into more than a mere whistle stop. By the 20th century, homes, schools, churches, and businesses took root and provided the foundation for a community that still thrives today.
Download or read book Trees Forested Landscapes and Grazing Animals written by Ian D. Rotherham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this comprehensive book, the critical components of the European landscape – forest, parkland, and other grazed landscapes with trees are addressed. The book considers the history of grazed treed landscapes, of large grazing herbivores in Europe, and the implications of the past in shaping our environment today and in the future. Debates on the types of anciently grazed landscapes in Europe, and what they tell us about past and present ecology, have been especially topical and controversial recently. This treatment brings the current discussions and the latest research to a much wider audience. The book breaks new ground in broadening the scope of wood-pasture and woodland research to address sites and ecologies that have previously been overlooked but which hold potential keys to understanding landscape dynamics. Eminent contributors, including Oliver Rackham and Frans Vera, present a text which addresses the importance of history in understanding the past landscape, and the relevance of historical ecology and landscape studies in providing a future vision.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animals’ love and acceptance for humans is well-documented, as is the joy and stress relief they bring to our lives. But, until now, the inherent wisdom animals possess has been locked inside of them, unable to be understood by most people. Fortunately, author Dawn Hayman is here to help. Dawn’s experience as one of the early pioneers in interspecies communication lent her the knowledge and understanding necessary to effectively communicate with tens of thousands of animals, culminating in her co-founding Spring Farm CARES, an animal and nature sanctuary. She serves as its vice president, overseeing the care of hundreds of small and large domestic animals. Dawn’s ability to communicate with animals led her to put to paper the knowledge they possess, knowledge that can benefit all humans, whether they’re animal lovers or not. Animal Wisdom for Mankind is a fascinating look into the minds of animals, led by the loquacious Amber, a donkey with insight into the lives of humans and animals that she’s only too happy to share. Amber and her friends at Spring Farm CARES are willing to give humans answers to the questions that haunt them, but are the humans willing to listen?
