Book Synopsis The Brush Tale of Jotham Possum by : Rebecca Leach
Download or read book The Brush Tale of Jotham Possum written by Rebecca Leach and published by . This book was released on 2019-08 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are around 23 native species of possums in Australia. The possums are divided into three major families: Ringtail possums and gliders from the family called petauridae; Brushtail possums and cuscuses from the family called phalangeridae; and Pygmy possums and feathertail gliders from the family burramyidae. This story is about a brushtail possum (trichosurus vulpecula). In the wild, the brushtail possum will eat leaves, blossoms and fruits, but in urban areas it will eat almost anything. "At the bottom of the damp dark stairs in a hidden sunken garden lair, there lived a family of brushtail possums. This is the story of a hungry one named Jotham." Written, illustrated and printed in Australia using environmentally friendly technology with all profits reinvested into Australian sustainable programs.

Book Synopsis Life of Marsupials by : Hugh Tyndale-Biscoe
Download or read book Life of Marsupials written by Hugh Tyndale-Biscoe and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2005-04-22 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past half a century research has revealed that marsupials – far from being ‘second class’ mammals – have adaptations for particular ways of life quite equal to their placental counterparts. Despite long separate evolution, there are extraordinary similarities in which marsupials have solved the challenges of living in such environments as deserts, alpine snowfields or tropical rainforests. Some can live on grass, some on pollen and others on leaves; some can glide, some can swim and others hop with extraordinary efficiency. In Life of Marsupials, one of the world’s leading experts explores the biology and evolution of this unusual group – with their extraordinary diversity of forms around the world – in Australia, New Guinea and South America. Joint winner of the 2005 Whitley Medal. Included in Choice Magazine's 2006 Outstanding Academic Titles list.

Book Synopsis Guidelines for reintroductions and other conservation translocations by : Reintroduction and invasive species specialist groups' taskforce on moving plants and animals for conservation purposes
Download or read book Guidelines for reintroductions and other conservation translocations written by Reintroduction and invasive species specialist groups' taskforce on moving plants and animals for conservation purposes and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2013 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As the world's biodiversity faces the incessant threats of habitat loss, invasive species and climate change, there is an increasing need to consider more direct conservation interventions. Humans have moved organisms between sites for their own purposes for millennia, and this has yielded benefits for human kind, but in some cases has led to disastrous impacts. In response to this complex aspect of conservation management, the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC) Reintroduction Specialist Group (RSG) and Invasive Species Specialist Group (ISSG) have revised and published the IUCN 'Guidelines for Reintroductions and Other Conservation Translocations'"--Website.
Book Synopsis Animal bones in Australian archaeology by : Melanie Fillios
Download or read book Animal bones in Australian archaeology written by Melanie Fillios and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-02 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zooarchaeology has emerged as a powerful way of reconstructing the lives of past societies. Through the analysis of animal bones found on a site, zooarchaeologists can uncover important information on the economy, trade, industry, diet, and other fascinating facts about the people who lived there. Animal bones in Australian archaeology is an introductory bone identification manual written for archaeologists working in Australia. This field guide includes 16 species commonly encountered in both Indigenous and historical sites. Using diagrams and flow charts, it walks the reader step-by-step through the bone identification process. Combining practical and academic knowledge, the manual also provides an introductory insight into zooarchaeological methodology and the importance of zooarchaeological research in understanding human behaviour through time.
Book Synopsis The Biology and Identification of the Coccidia (Apicomplexa) of Marsupials of the World by : Donald W. Duszynski
Download or read book The Biology and Identification of the Coccidia (Apicomplexa) of Marsupials of the World written by Donald W. Duszynski and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-09-10 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Biology and Identification of the Coccidia (Apicomplexa) of Marsupials of the World contains the most up-to-date information on the former order marsupial that is now partitioned by mammalogists into seven separate orders that contain 20 families, 86 genera, and 318 species that live on land or in trees in Oceania and the Americas. Marsupials, like other vertebrate animals have many different kinds of parasites (e.g. viruses, protozoa, worms, arthropods, etc.), but there is no definitive text that covers any one of these groups found in all marsupials. Coccidiosis is a serious global problem in most domesticated animals, and under increasing circumstances of loss of habitat and crowding, may also affect some wild animal populations, thus, there is a real need for their identification and control. Offers line drawings and photomicrograph of each parasite from each hosts species, including methods of identification and treatment Presents a complete historical rendition of all known publications on coccidia (and their closest relatives) from all marsupials species on Earth, and evaluates the scientific and scholarly merit of each Provides a complete species analysis of the known biology of every coccidian described from marsupials Reviews the most current taxonomy of marsupials and their phylogenetic relationships needed to help assess host-specificity and evaluate what little cross-transmission work is available
Book Synopsis Ecological and Environmental Physiology of Mammals by : Philip Carew Withers
Download or read book Ecological and Environmental Physiology of Mammals written by Philip Carew Withers and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 607 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mammals are the so-called "pinnacle" group of vertebrates, successfully colonising virtually all terrestrial environments as well as the air (bats) and sea (especially pinnipeds and cetaceans). How mammals function and survive in these diverse environments has long fascinated mammologists, comparative physiologists and ecologists. Ecological and Environmental Physiology of Mammals explores the physiological mechanisms and evolutionary necessities that have made the spectacular adaptation of mammals possible. It summarises our current knowledge of the complex and sophisticated physiological approaches that mammals have for survival in a wide variety of ecological and environmental contexts: terrestrial, aerial, and aquatic. The authors have a strong comparative and quantitative focus in their broad approach to exploring mammal ecophysiology. As with other books in the Ecological and Environmental Physiology Series, the emphasis is on the unique physiological characteristics of mammals, their adaptations to extreme environments, and current experimental techniques and future research directions are also considered. This accessible text is suitable for graduate level students and researchers in the fields of mammalian comparative physiology and physiological ecology, including specialist courses in mammal ecology. It will also be of value and use to the many professional mammologists requiring a concise overview of the topic.
