Klappentext zu „Traveller's Guide / Wildlife of the Arctic “
This book celebrates the Arctic, exploring the natural history that has so inspired generations. Early travellers to the Arctic brought back tales of amazing creatures and of the endurance required of visitors, the Arctic becoming a land of inspiration and imagination. Adventurers test themselves against it. Its wildlife still amazes - when film and television show Earth's natural wonders it is always the polar regions that draw the biggest audiences. But today the Arctic is in retreat. Humanity's relentless exploitation of the Earth's resources in the pursuit of progress has, it seems, altered the climate and threatens the ice and ice-living organisms. It is a cliché that the loss of a species diminishes us, but it is true nonetheless. Even to people who have never seen a Polar Bear its loss will be immeasurable as the bear is iconic, both defining and reflecting the Arctic.
This Traveller's Guide is designed to give visitors a handy identification guide to the wildlife they might see as they travel around, including stunning photography and detailed descriptions of each species.

Pressezitat
Praise for Collins New Naturalist - Falcons by Richard Sale: 'One of the best New Naturalists on birds, and one that is likely to remain the last word on British falcons for a long time.' British Wildlife
'An in-depth, rigorous analysis of the four British breeding falcons [...]. A must for the bookshelves of any raptor-loving hardened ornithologist.' Bird Watching
'A wonderful addition to the remarkable New Naturalist Library. [...] we get the benefit of Richard Sale's own vital research, especially in a fascinating chapter on the birds' hunting techniques.' BBC Wildlife
