Sinopsis

An extraordinary view of the wild horse bands in the Rockies' Pryor Mountains like you've never seen before, Wild Stallions of the Rockies chronicles the life of the leader stallion, Cloud (1995-2016). This remarkable account details his reign among the wild horse herds in the Rockies, as well as both his immediate family band and rival bands that occupy the same region on the Montana-Wyoming border. You'll see the predators, both human and animal, that challenge the stallions' survival, plus the fighting between bands for power, family, and territory. Phenomenal photography gives you an up close and personal look at the feeding, foaling, and freedom of these wild horses, and interactive QR codes grant you access to exclusive and stunning video from its companion PBS Nature documentary series, Cloud: Challenge of the Stallions. This fascinating standalone book that emphasizes the mission of saving and preserving the wild horse bands in the Rocky Mountains is unlike any other Cloud book available. One-of-a-kind and truly special, Wild Stallions of the Rockies is an absolute must-have for anyone passionate about these stunning wild animals.

    Teratology is the study of congenital abnormalities and the factors that contribute to developmental disorders in embryos and fetuses. Birth defects, which range from minor physical anomalies to severe life-threatening conditions, affect millions of infants worldwide. Understanding their causes, mechanisms, and potential prevention strategies is essential for improving maternal and infant health. Over time, scientific advancements have shed light on the complex interplay between genetics, environmental influences, and maternal health, all of which contribute to fetal development. 
    The origins of teratology date back centuries, with early theories often rooted in superstition rather than science. However, as medical knowledge expanded, researchers identified specific genetic mutations, environmental toxins, infections, and nutritional deficiencies as key contributors to congenital disorders. Today, a combination of genetic research, prenatal screening, and preventive healthcare plays a crucial role in reducing the prevalence and severity of birth defects. 
    Birth defects can be classified into several categories, including structural, functional, and metabolic disorders. Structural anomalies, such as cleft lip, spina bifida, and congenital heart defects, result from improper tissue or organ formation. Functional disorders, including neurological and developmental disabilities, affect how the body operates. Metabolic disorders, often inherited, impact the body’s ability to process nutrients and chemicals. Each type of defect has unique causes and requires different approaches to diagnosis, treatment, and management.

    Bestselling author Helen Macdonald explores the natural and cultural history of the falcon. 
      
    The fastest animal alive, the falcon deserves attention not just for the combination of speed, power, beauty and ferocity that have made it an object of fascination for thousands of years, but for the light it sheds on the cultures through which it has flown. This book, bridging science and cultural history, surveys the practical and symbolic uses of falcons in human culture in new and exciting ways. 
      
    Bestselling natural history writer Helen Macdonald follows the movements of the falcon, her personal experience and knowledge of falconry enriching the history and lore of this bird of prey. She ranges across the globe and over many millennia, taking in natural history, myth and legend, falconry, science and conservation, and falcons in the military, in urban settings and the corporate world. Along the way we discover how falcons were mobilized in secret military projects, their links with espionage, the Third Reich and the space programme, and even how they have featured in erotic stories. 
      
    Originally published in 2006, this new format edition features a new introduction. Combining in-depth practical, personal and scientific knowledge, Macdonald offers a fascinating account of the place of these birds in human history. Falcon is for lovers of the countryside, birdwatchers or anyone fascinated by these captivating birds. 
      
    "This is a wonderful book. It is not a falconry text, nor is it a falcon biology or a conservation one. Macdonald's slim volume is far more ambitious: it is an attempt to capture and indeed explain the essence of the falcon. This is simply a most beautifully considered social history of the genus Falco … it informs and provokes in equal measure … Macdonald writes beautifully and with a refreshing clarity."—The Falconer
