With full captions explaining how wolf species hunt and feed, rear their young, and migrate, Wolves is a brilliant examination in outstanding color photographs of these fascinating animals. Wolves is divided into chapters on the lone wolf, wolves in winter, hunting, the wolf pack, and wolf cubs. You’ll discover how wolves are adapted for hunting and running. They have big lungs and a heart that is twice as big as that of another mammal of similar length and weight. They scare off wolves from another pack by adopting a low, hunched posture with mouth open and teeth arrayed in a snarl. However, when they have a broad, flat head, it indicates they are in a playful mood. Wolves features a wide variety of wolf species from around the world, including the Eurasian Wolf, Timber Wolf, Arctic Wolf, Northwestern Wolf, Yukon Wolf, Ethiopian Wolf, Tibetan Wolf, and many more. It is an introduction to an animal that has fascinated, inspired, and terrified people throughout history.

Objevuj prvky - základní stavební kameny hmoty, ze kterých se skládá nejen náš svět, ale celý vesmír. Jde třeba o zlato, kyslík, fosfor či helium. Prvků dnes známe celkem 118. Řada z nich má jedinečné, někdy překvapivé chemické a fyzikální vlastnosti. Například gallium je kov, přesto se ti teplem rozteče v dlani, fluor je plyn, který může vypálit díru do betonu! Prvky se většinou nenacházejí v čisté formě. Najdeme je sloučené s jinými prvky ve sloučeninách. Třeba vodík a kyslík se nacházejí ve vodě, sodík a chlor utvářejí kuchyňskou sůl a uhlík je součástí milionů sloučenin, z nichž mnohé tvoří naše těla. V knize podrobně prozkoumáme periodickou tabulku prvků, od aktinia po zirkon. Prvky jsou v ní uspořádané podle příbuzných vlastností. Vědci z této neocenitelné pomůcky získali spoustu cenných informací a ty si přečteš příběh každého prvku doplněný fascinujícími fotografiemi - o tom, jak byl objeven, jaké má vlastnosti a jak jej můžeme využít.

A chance to move to the US Wild West allows TV presenter Philippa Forrester to fulfil a lifelong dream of living among and learning all she can about wolvesWhen Philippa Forrester and her nature-loving family moved to the wilds of Grand Teton National Park, they quickly learned to love the wildlife of Wyoming and nearby Yellowstone. The sounds of wolves close to their new home fed Philippa’s lifelong fascination with these remarkable animals, but nothing she had learned about wolves from her studies in the UK could have prepared her for the reality of living in wolf country. And as she and her family settled into their new wilder way of life, she discovered many locals are not excited about sharing their land with wolves.Twenty-five years after wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park, wolf packs are spreading into areas where their protection has been removed by the American administration. Without that protection, what is the future for wolves where many people resent that they were ever here at all?In On the Trail of Wolves, Philippa vividly recounts her adventures living among the grizzlies, elk and wolves in her new home in America’s Wild West and chronicles her journeys further ...

JANE GOODALLA debut memoir from one of the first women biologists in the United States to study wild wolves in their natural habitat—a story of passion, resilience, and determination.Called the Jane Goodall of wolves, world-renowned wildlife biologist Diane Boyd has spent four decades studying and advocating for wolves in the wilds of Montana near Glacier National Park. When she started in the 1970s, she was the only female biologist in the United States researching and radio-collaring wild wolves. With her two dogs for company, she faced the rigors of the Montana winter in an isolated cabin without running water or electricity.Boyd fearlessly forded icy rivers, strapped on skis to navigate thick stands of lodgepole pine, and monitored packs from the air in a tiny bush plane that skimmed the treetops so she could count wolves and see what they were feeding on. ...

In a fascinating story of discovery and science, we meet a remote population of wolves unafraid of humans.  For parts of twenty-four summers, wolf biologist L. David Mech lived with a group of wolves on Ellesmere Island, some six hundred miles from the North Pole. Elsewhere, most wolves flee from even the scent of humans, but these animals, evolving relatively free from human persecution, are unafraid. Having already spent twenty-eight years studying other populations of wolves more remotely by aircraft, snow-tracking, live-trapping, and radio-tracking, Mech was primed to join their activities up close and record their interactions with each other. This book tells the remarkable story of what Mech—and the researchers who followed him—have learned while living among the wolves.  The Ellesmere wolves were so unconcerned with Mech’s presence that they allowed him to camp near their den and to sit on his all-terrain vehicle as he observed them, watching packs as large as seven adults and six pups go about their normal activities. In these extraordinarily close quarters, a pup untying his bootlace or an adult sniffing his gloved hand was just part of daily life. Mech accompanied the wolves on their travels and watched as they ... Unknown localization key: "more"

In 2020, it will have been twenty-five years since one of the greatest wildlife conservation and restoration achievements of the twentieth century took place: the reintroduction of wolves to the world's first national park, Yellowstone. Eradicated after the park was established, then absent for seventy years, these iconic carnivores returned to Yellowstone in 1995 when the US government reversed its century-old policy of extermination and--despite some political and cultural opposition--began the reintroduction of forty-one wild wolves from Canada and northwest Montana. In the intervening decades, scientists have studied their myriad behaviors, from predation to mating to wolf-pup play, building a one-of-a-kind field study that has both allowed us to witness how the arrival of top predators can change an entire ecosystem and provided a critical window into impacts on prey, pack composition, and much else. Here, for the first time in a single book, is the incredible story of the wolves' return to Yellowstone National Park as told by the very people responsible for their reintroduction, study, and management. Anchored in what we have learned from Yellowstone, highlighting the unique blend of research techniques that have given us this knowledge, and addressing the major issues that wolves still face today, ...

Chosen by Emma Watson for her feminist book club ''Our Shared Shelf''''Women Who Run With The Wolves is a gift of profound insight, wisdom and love. An oracle from one who knows'' Alice WalkerIn the classic Women Who Run With The Wolves, Clarissa Pinkola Estes tells us about the ''wild woman'', the wise and ageless presence in the female psyche that gives women their creativity, energy and power. For centuries, the ''wild woman'' has been repressed by a male-orientated value system which trivialises women''s emotions. Using a combination of time-honoured stories and contemporary casework, Estes reveals that the ''wild woman'' in us is innately healthy, passionate and wise.Thoughtfully written and compelling in its arguments, Women Who Run With The Wolves gives readers a new sense of direction, a self confidence and purpose in their lives.
