This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1883 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER V. ANIMAL LIFE. General Considerations--Mammals--Warracaba Tigers--The Colours of Birds--Bird-notes--Chief Forms of Birds--Scenes of Bird-Life--Reptiles--Alligators--Iguanas -- Snakes--Turtles--Fish--The Dangers of Bathing -- Insect Plagues -- Butterflies --Beetles --Ants--.Wasps-- Mosquitoes-- Sandflies -- The Mosquito Worm--Jiggers -- Bush-Ticks -- Spiders--Centipedes--Scorpions. In a tropical country so varied as regards physical features as British Guiana, and so sparingly inhabited by man, it will naturally be supposed that animal life, both in its beautiful and its baneful forms, is very abundant. This is indeed the case; but yet animal life is not in any marked degree prominent, nor, with the exception perhaps of insect ravages, is it in any way troublesome. It is not surprising that the ordinary colonist, who generally lives in the more inhabited parts of the coast land, should not see much wild animal life around him; but the traveller in the interior, even if he is in search of wild beasts, cannot avoid a feeling of surprise that so few of these present themselves unsought to his notice, and that he has to search so diligently before he finds others. The untravelled man, living in temperate climates, while he overcolours in his mind the picture of the brilliant birds, insects, and animals, thinks with horror, not only of the powerful savage animals-- which are probably represented in his mind by beasts of prey and by gigantic or venomous serpents--but also of the thousand annoying insects and other such small cattle, which, as he imagines, everywhere lie in wait for the traveller, or even the dweller, in the tropics. If these imaginations were; 'TROPICAL FALLACY' OF ANIMALS. 107 anywhere near the truth, it would indeed...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tropical Wild Life in British Guiana, Vol. 1: Zoological Contributions From the Tropical Research Station of the New York Zoological Society This gift of expression is of value because it is based on a really phenomenal gift of both wide and minutely in tensive observation. The fundamental differences between the quality of his study and the quality of the study of the average closet museum worker can be illustrated by 'his oh servation of those queer South American game birds, the tinamous. Closet naturalists have long known that some of the tinamou had rough, and some smooth, tarsi. This fact awakened no curiosity in their minds, no desire to find out whether it was correlated with any difference in habits 'or life history. Thev simply treated it as justifying a termin ological decision as to whether it marked a genus or a sub genus; and examined the tarsus of each specimen with only sufficient care to enable them to decide the specimen-drawer into which it should be thrown.

Download or read book American Tropics written by Megan Raby and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biodiversity has been a key concept in international conservation since the 1980s, yet historians have paid little attention to its origins. Uncovering its roots in tropical fieldwork and the southward expansion of U.S. empire at the turn of the twentieth century, Megan Raby details how ecologists took advantage of growing U.S. landholdings in the circum-Caribbean by establishing permanent field stations for long-term, basic tropical research. From these outposts of U.S. science, a growing community of American "tropical biologists" developed both the key scientific concepts and the values embedded in the modern discourse of biodiversity. Considering U.S. biological fieldwork from the era of the Spanish-American War through the anticolonial movements of the 1960s and 1970s, this study combines the history of science, environmental history, and the history of U.S.–Caribbean and Latin American relations. In doing so, Raby sheds new light on the origins of contemporary scientific and environmentalist thought and brings to the forefront a surprisingly neglected history of twentieth-century U.S. science and empire.

Download or read book The Remarkable Life of William Beebe written by Carol Grant Gould and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When William Beebe needed to know what was going on in the depths of the ocean, he had himself lowered a half-mile down in a four-foot steel sphere to see-five times deeper than anyone had ever gone in the 1930s. When he wanted to trace the evolution of pheasants in 1910, he trekked on foot through the mountains and jungles of the Far East to locate every species. To decipher the complex ecology of the tropics, he studied the interactions of every creature and plant in a small area from the top down, setting the emerging field of tropical ecology into dynamic motion. William Beebe's curiosity about the natural world was insatiable, and he did nothing by halves. As the first biographer to see the letters and private journals Beebe kept from 1887 until his death in 1962, science writer Carol Grant Gould brings the life and times of this groundbreaking scientist and explorer compellingly to light. From the Galapagos Islands to the jungles of British Guiana, from the Bronx Zoo to the deep seas, Beebe's biography is a riveting adventure. A best-selling author in his own time, Beebe was a fearless explorer and thoughtful scientist who put his life on the line in pursuit of knowledge. The unique glimpses he provided into the complex web of interactions that keeps the earth alive and breathing have inspired generations of conservationists and ecologists. This exciting biography of a great naturalist brings William Beebe at last to the recognition he deserves.
