Download or read book The Gray Whale: Eschrichtius Robustus written by Mary Lou Jones and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gray Whale: Eschrichtius robustus provides an introduction to the understanding of Eschrichtius robustus or the gray whale. This book explores the life processes, reproduction, and growth of large cetacean populations. Organized into four parts encompassing 25 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the gray whale evolution, fossils, and subfossil remains, range, and systematics in historical times. This text then presents the historical of gray whale exploitation and the economic importance of these whales to humans. Other chapters consider the gray whale migration, abundance, and seasonal distribution in the wake of the California population's recovery from depletion. This book discusses as well the methods used in shore-based censuses during migration and in aerial surveys of gray whales taken on their winter grounds. The final chapter deals with some innovative approaches to the study of free-ranging cetaceans. This book is a valuable resource for anthropologists, paleontologists, biologists, and naturalists.

Download or read book Lassoing the Sun written by Mark Woods and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this remarkable journey, Mark Woods captures the essence of our National Parks: their serenity and majesty, complexity and vitality--and their power to heal." --Ken Burns For many childhood summers, Mark Woods piled into a station wagon with his parents and two sisters and headed to America's national parks. Mark’s most vivid childhood memories are set against a backdrop of mountains, woods, and fireflies in places like Redwood, Yosemite, and Grand Canyon national parks. On the eve of turning fifty and a little burned-out, Mark decided to reconnect with the great outdoors. He'd spend a year visiting the national parks. He planned to take his mother to a park she'd not yet visited and to re-create his childhood trips with his wife and their iPad-generation daughter. But then the unthinkable happened: his mother was diagnosed with cancer and given just months to live. Mark had initially intended to write a book about the future of the national parks, but Lassoing the Sun grew into something more: a book about family, the parks, and the legacies we inherit and the ones we leave behind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As construction begins on the largest marine amusement park in the world, the abuse of killer whales continues, both during capture and in captivity. As the parks head biologist, Mark Tillsdale, and eight crew members head into the waters that surround Santa Catalina Island to hunt orcas during their migration season, one whale fails to escape their net. After a three-year-old orca is captured and torn from his family, the young male is quickly deemed unsuitable for training, killed, and thrown back into the sea. When the mother orca and her pod find her offsprings carcass, they vow revenge. Soon, ocean justice begins as the pod brutally attacks and kills humans along the California coast. After a mature male orca escapes from a marine amusement park and joins the pod, the killing continues, even as marine biologists, land-based law enforcement, the Coast Guard, and others attempt to fight back. Unfortunately they are all about to discover that what human cruelty unleashed, no man can stop. In this gripping tale, a mother whale and her pod become bloodthirsty murders after her offspring is brutally killed by staff from a marine amusement park.

Book Synopsis Orderly Anarchy by : Robert L. Bettinger
Download or read book Orderly Anarchy written by Robert L. Bettinger and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-01-07 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orderly Anarchy delivers a provocative and innovative reexamination of sociopolitical evolution among Native American groups in California, a region known for its wealth of prehistoric languages, populations, and cultural adaptations. Scholars have tended to emphasize the development of social complexity and inequality to explain this diversity. Robert L. Bettinger argues instead that "orderly anarchy," the emergence of small, autonomous groups, provided a crucial strategy in social organization. Drawing on ethnographic and archaeological data and evolutionary, economic, and anthropological theory, he shows that these small groups devised diverse solutions to environmental, technological, and social obstacles to the intensified use of resources. This book revises our understanding of how California became the most densely populated landscape in aboriginal North America.
