Beschreibung

Vultures, often misunderstood, are vital to environmental health, serving as nature's scavengers. Vulture Facts explores their indispensable role in ecosystems, highlighting how these birds prevent the spread of diseases and contribute to nutrient cycling.

 
Did you know vultures possess highly acidic stomach acid, enabling them to consume carcasses infected with pathogens deadly to other animals? Or that their soaring flight, aided by thermals, allows them to cover vast distances in search of food?

 
The book progresses through the diversity of vulture species, their unique biological adaptations, and the threats they face, such as habitat loss and poisoning.

 
By drawing upon scientific literature and field research, the book emphasizes the practical applications of vulture research for conservation and offers insights into mitigating human-wildlife conflict.

 
From their ecological importance to their population dynamics, Vulture Facts demonstrates why vulture conservation is crucial for maintaining environmental balance, benefitting public health and agriculture alike.

The Chimpanzee Whisperer - A...

Stany Nyandwi, David Blissett

Earphones Award Winner from Audiofile Magazine!Stany Nyandwi’s gift for communicating with chimpanzees is so special that world-renowned primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall has called him a “chimpanzee whisperer.” His skills and devotion to these creatures—our closest living relatives, with whom we share 98.7 percent of our DNA—have earned him international awards and sent him on travels within Africa and around the world. But he began life in poverty, born and raised in a dirt-floor, straw-roofed hut in rural Burundi. The Chimpanzee Whisperer is the story of his astonishing life journey."Narrator Dion Graham so inhabits the memoir that listeners easily could swear he's the author. He adopts an accent that to Western ears sounds authentic without affectation or loss of understanding. A truly marvelous pairing." - Audiofile MagazineReceiving only an elementary education before he quit school, Stany Nyandwi began caring for orphaned and rescued chimps in Burundi. When the country descended into civil war and genocide, he was forced to flee with the chimps and endured long separation from his family. Continuing to work with and learn about chimpanzees in Kenya, Uganda, and later South Africa, he made himself into an incomparable authority.His memoir has adventure, danger, and many unique and touching stories about chimpanzees that show his bond with and understanding of them. As told to award-winning author David Blissett, it reveals a remarkable man who has refused to let circumstances defeat him. Conditioned by hate, wounded by loss, he has lived for love, faith, and compassion, giving new life, as Dr. Jane Goodall writes in her foreword, “to so many chimpanzees whose families, like his own, were torn apart by violence.”

The One Thing You Need to Know -...

Marcus Chown

Rather than trying to bend your mind around all the vast and confounding details of things such as gravitational waves, electricity, and black holes, wouldn't it be easier to understand just one central concept from which everything else follows? 
 
 
 
If you've ever found yourself fascinated by the idea of quantum computing but feel a little overwhelmed by the mind-blowing subject of quantum mechanics or concerned by climate change but haven't been able to get to grips with the details of global warming, this book is for you. Let's take atoms, for example—what on earth are they? Well, if you start to think of them less like things you can't see with complex little nuclei and more like the alphabet of nature, they might start to feel a little more understandable. Or gravitational waves—why are they creating so much excitement? Think of them as the voice of space, vibrations on the drumskin of space-time—before delving into all their complexities. 
 
 
 
Chown explains the one thing you need to know to understand some of the most important scientific ideas of our time. Packed full of astounding facts, scientific history, and the entertaining personalities at the heart of the most pivotal discoveries about the workings of our universe, this is an accessible guide to all the tricky stuff you've always wanted to understand more about.
