Описание: Written with passion for anyone interested in seeing an end to the illegal trade in elephant ivory and rhino horn, this book shows how, by working together, people all over the world who care about these animals are gradually bringing about change for the better.
More than 10 years and over 600 posted articles later, world-renowned cryptozoologist Dr Karl Shuker's long-running, perpetually popular internet blog ShukerNature makes its long-awaited debut in hard-copy form via the publication of this first book in what is planned to be a regular series that not only collects together but also presents in updated, expanded form whenever possible many of his most significant and unusual online articles. As ever, each and every one is packed with the painstaking scientific research and ever-present attention to detail on the most esoteric, hitherto-unpublicised aspects of cryptozoology, zoomythology, and animal anomalistics that constitute his trademark in these extremely diverse fields of investigation and documentation.
Where else but on his ShukerNature blog--and now, exclusively, in this first ShukerNature book--could you encounter such exotic examples of (un)natural history as locust dragons and antlered elephants, North America's babyfeet and Linnaeus's fury worm, alligator men and crocodile boys, reptilian seals and seal dragons, king hares and giant rabbits, fan-tailed mermen and scaly bishops, flying cats, flying lemurs, and even flying elephants, blue lions and green tigers, giant oil-drinking spiders and bemusing sea-monkeys, ape-man Oliver, demonic dragonflies, marginalia snail-cats, lightbulb lizards, and how ShukerNature famously hit the cryptozoological headlines globally with a series of astonishing world-exclusives exposing the long-awaited truth about Trunko?
To find out more about all of these, and numerous other no less fascinating, equally eclectic fauna too, loiter no longer--it's time to pay a visit to ShukerNature. So, please come in, the good doctor has been expecting you . . .

Описание:
This book draws together, for the first time, the published research on the behaviour, ecology and welfare of elephants living in zoos, circuses, logging camps and other captive environments in a single comprehensive volume. It takes a multi-disciplinary approach, considering the work of zoo biologists, animal behaviour and welfare scientists, veterinarians, philosophers, zoo educators, tourism specialists, conservation biologists, lawyers and others with a professional interest in elephants.
Elephants under Human Care: The Behaviour, Ecology, and Welfare of Elephants in Captivity is a valuable resource for zoo biology and animal welfare researchers. It is also useful for students and zoo professionals and managers looking for a comprehensive guide to current research on captive elephants. Although not intended as a husbandry manual, the book discusses some of the elephant welfare standards developed by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums (BIAZA) and their relationship to current knowledge of captive elephants.

Описание: Why are white evangelicals the most skeptical major religious group in America regarding climate change? Previous scholarship has pointed to cognitive factors such as conservative politics, anti-science attitudes, aversion to big government, and theology. Drawing on qualitative fieldwork, The Gospel of Climate Skepticism reveals the extent to which climate skepticism and anti-environmentalism have in fact become embedded in the social world of many conservative evangelicals. Rejecting the common assumption that evangelicals' skepticism is simply a side effect of political or theological conservatism, the book further shows that between 2006 and 2015, leaders and pundits associated with the Christian Right widely promoted skepticism as the biblical position on climate change. The Gospel of Climate Skepticism offers a compelling portrait of how during a critical period of recent history, political and religious interests intersected to prevent evangelicals from offering a unified voice in support of legislative action to address climate change.
