Beschreibung

Sharks, apex predators of the marine world, possess an extraordinary sense of smell that governs much of their behavior. "Shark Scent Detection" explores the intricacies of shark olfaction, revealing how these animals use their acute ability to detect scents, sometimes at concentrations of only one part per million, to hunt, navigate, and even find mates. This book uniquely emphasizes how critical scent detection is to their survival and ecological impact, particularly in the face of growing environmental challenges. Understanding the olfactory system is crucial, as it underpins much of shark behavior, making knowledge surrounding this sense vital for effective conservation efforts.

 
The book progresses from detailing the biological mechanisms of shark olfaction, including the structure of their olfactory organs and neural pathways, to examining how scent shapes their predatory behavior and ecological roles through case studies of different shark species. Finally, it addresses the conservation implications of disrupting shark olfaction, highlighting how pollutants and ocean acidification can impair their ability to detect prey and reproduce.

 
This comprehensive approach integrates findings from marine biology, neurobiology, and conservation biology, making it a valuable resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the biology and conservation of these fascinating creatures.

Rural Wrongs - Hunting and the...

Charlie Pye-Smith

Rural Wrongs tells a shocking story about how the hunting bans enacted in England, Wales and Scotland some 20 years ago have proved to be a disaster for animal welfare. Instead of making life better for the fox, the brown hare and the red deer, they have often made life worse. As Lord Moore says in his foreword: "Rural Wrongs is the first serious work of its kind. It is a vivid and heartfelt tale about what happens to animal and human landscapes when people meddle in them for the wrong reasons. It should serve as a handbook for all those seeking to show why bad law must be replaced by rules that truly address animal welfare."
