Download or read book Otters written by Hans Kruuk and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-08-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Otters are highly charismatic and popular animals of very considerable concern to conservationists worldwide. Written by the pre-eminent authority in the field, this book builds on the reputation of the author's landmark monograph of the European otter, Wild Otters (OUP, 1995). Furthermore, its broader scope to include all species of otter in North America as well as Europe and elsewhere leads to a deeper synthesis that greatly expands the book's overall relevance and potential readership. Aimed at naturalists, scientists and conservationists, its personal style and generously illustrated text will appeal to amateurs and professionals alike. It emphasises recent research and conservation management initiatives for all 13 species of otter worldwide, incorporates recent molecular research on taxonomy and population genetics, and discusses the wider implications of otter studies for ecology and conservation biology. As well as enchanting direct observations of the animals, there is guidance about how and where to watch and study them. From otters in the British and American lakes and rivers, to sea otters in the Pacific Ocean, giant otters in the Amazon and other species in Africa and Asia, this book provides an engaging approach to their fascinating existence, to the science needed to understand it, and to the very real threats to their survival.

Download or read book Otter written by Daniel Allen and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2020-05-11 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although rarely seen in the wild, the otter is admired for its playful character and graceful aquatic agility, fixed in the popular imagination through books and films such as Tarka the Otter and Ring of Bright Water. This is just a small part of its story, however: throughout history, the otter has been hunted for its fur and to prevent it from killing fish. Featuring numerous images from nature and culture, as well as examples from folklore, sports, and literature, this wide-ranging book also explores the movement against otter hunting, and the ongoing efforts promoting otter conservation. A fittingly lively study of its subject, Otter offers a new way of thinking about this much-loved but endangered animal.

Download or read book The Essential Naturalist written by Michael H. Graham and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-05-15 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like nearly every area of scholarly inquiry today, the biological sciences are broken into increasingly narrow fields and subfields, its practitioners divided into ecologists, evolutionary biologists, taxonomists, paleontologists, and much more. But all these splintered pieces have their origins in the larger field of natural history—and in this era where climate change and relentless population growth are irrevocably altering the world around us, perhaps it’s time to step back and take a new, fresh look at the larger picture. The Essential Naturalist offers exactly that: a wide-ranging, eclectic collection of writings from more than eight centuries of observations of the natural world, from Leeuwenhoek to E. O. Wilson, from von Humboldt to Rachel Carson. Featuring commentaries by practicing scientists that offer personal accounts of the importance of the long tradition of natural history writing to their current research, the volume serves simultaneously as an overview of the field’s long history and as an inspirational starting point for new explorations, for trained scientists and amateur enthusiasts alike.

She’ll discover that to survive Zandora she’ll have to change the way she thinks about hunger, anger, hopelessness, and a broken heart before she can continue on. She’ll come to understand that true love and loyalty brings sacrifices, and both can easily be taken away. It will take the friendship of a very old and wise spider named Gundar to break through her stubbornness and show her that with age comes experience, with experience comes knowledge, and with knowledge comes wisdom. Finally, under Gundar’s guidance, Paige realizes she has weaknesses and she is unable to make this journey alone. She places her fate in the most unlikely animals and creatures as she accepts the responsibility as the Maiden of Zandora. In the end we see Paige transform from a teenager that knew everything to a young women asking the question. “Was it worth it?” And together we find the answer.
