This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although people have been altering earth’s landscapes to some extent for tens of thousands of years, humankind today is causing massive changes to the planet. Such widespread environmental change is accompanied by accelerating rates of species extinction. In this book, noted ecologist H. H. Shugart presents important ecological concepts through entertaining animal parables. He tells the stories of particular birds and mammals—the packrat, ivory-billed woodpecker, penguin, dingo, European rabbit, and others—and what their fates reveal about the interactions between environmental change and the extinctions or explosions of species populations. Change is the root of many planetary problems, but it is also an intrinsic feature of our living planet. Shugart explores past environmental change, discusses the non-existence of a “balance of Nature,” and documents how human alterations have affected plants, soils, and animals. He looks with hope toward a future in which thoughtful people learn—and use—ecological science to protect the landscapes upon which terrestrial creatures depend.

Download or read book The Dingoes' Lament written by John Bois and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dingoes reached the climax of their Australian success in 1974 with their self-titled LP and singles Way Out West and Boy on the Run. This is the story of their one chance to make it big on the international stage. It is a hilarious road trip story of five Aussie musicians travelling across the USA in preparation for their big break - supporting their stable-mates Lynyrd Skynyrd on a national tour. When they get to New York they receive the shattering news that Lynyrd Skynyd's plane has crashed. The hopes of the Dingoes crash along with it. It is a story of making music, life in a band, but above all it is a yarn, in the best Australian tradition, spun around true events and real charactersThe Dingoes were inducted in the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2010 and re-formed to record and tour in 2011 'Stockley, still with the keg between his knees, was now talking about the Australian bands that had been burned trying to make it overseas, particularly The Easybeats and Daddy Cool. ‘Daddy Cool were fuckin’ great,’ he wassaying. ‘Jesus, if they couldn’t make it … ’ ‘They got Phar Lapped,’ said Brod.After the investigation, they said: ‘We will never know what killed Phar Lap.’ Bullshit! We know what killed Phar Lap. From Gallipoli, to Les Darcy (the boxing champ who went to the US and died just as suddenly), to Phar Lap, toDaddy Cool: Australians must get screwed! That’s all. That’s because they don’t know, can’t know, what they’re walking into.'

Download or read book Dingo written by Claire Saxby and published by Candlewick Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetic language and glorious illustrations follow a dingo from the comfort of her pack into the darkening landscape in search of food for her family. Can you see her? There — deep in the stretching shadows — a dingo. Her pointed ears twitch. Her tawny eyes flash in the low-slung sun. Dingo leaves her sleeping pups with her mate and lifts her head to smell the air. Dusk is a busy time — the time for hunting. Softly and fleetly she runs through the forest, past a possum, a wombat, and kangaroos in the gully below. Now she climbs to the highest point and sniffs again, locating the scent of rabbits in the wind. Interspersed with text offering facts for curious readers, Dingo is a lyrical foray into the life of these fascinating wild dogs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The protagonists of these tales are herdsmen, sheep shearers, miners hardened by a life at the limits of the animalistic: a varied and desperate humanity that nevertheless knows how to develop and preserve the profound sense of human solidarity, which is revealed at every moment. But the real protagonist is the inhospitable bush, an immense and boundless space that, between prairie and bush, constitutes a large part of the Australian territory. This environment, however, also generates behaviour bordering on the absurd and insane, to the point of comic figures. "Triangles of Life and Other Stories" is a short story collection by Henry Lawson.
