| Naturalist and wildlife biologist Sue Quinlan explores fourteen ecological mysteries: Why would a herd of reindeer suddenly disappear? How could a bird's tail feathers change color? And what would make dead pigs become mummified? Drawing upon scientific studies and firsthand interviews with scientists, Quinlan traces the steps of investigation and discovery. With detailed black-and-white illustrations by wildlife artist Jennifer Owings Dewey, this book affirms the age-old principles of conservation and respect for the earth. With index and bibliography. |
