Найти книгу: "Giraffe Reflections"

The most comprehensive book on giraffes to appear in the last fifty years, this volume presents a magnificent portrait of a group of animals who, in spite of their legendary elegance and astonishing gentleness, may not entirely survive this century.<br /><br />Dale Peterson’s text provides a natural and cultural history of the world’s tallest and second-biggest land animals, describing in detail their biology and behavior. He offers a new perspective on the giraffes’ place in our world, and argues for the stronger protection of these imposing yet endangered creatures and their elusive forest relatives, the okapis.<br /><br />Some 120 stunning photographs by award-winning wildlife photographer Karl Ammann capture the grace and elegance of <i>Giraffa camelopardalis.</i> Both beautiful and informative, the images document giraffes’ complex interactions with each other and their environment.<br /><br />
