Book Synopsis Listening to Sea Lions by : Sarah Keene Meltzoff

Download or read book Listening to Sea Lions written by Sarah Keene Meltzoff. This book was released on 2012-12-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Galapagos to the depths of Patagonia and up along the stark desert coast of Chile, Listening to Sea Lions’ empathic ethnography carries the reader directly into the heart of the ocean world of Latino coastal people. Sea lions are the fellow denizens in nature who share the perpetual changes and are seen as metaphoric selves. Meltzoff uses storytelling rather than explicit theory to help explain local struggles and survival strategies wrought by extreme El Niño events and shifting political climates. Embedded within the six multi-sited ethnographies are global themes in coastal communities, from boom-and-bust fisheries to the rivalries among fisheries, tourism, conservation interests. The overall picture is sea-change and impermanence as a local way of life by the ocean.

Book Synopsis Sea Lions in the Parking Lot by : Lenora Todaro

Download or read book Sea Lions in the Parking Lot written by Lenora Todaro. This book was released on 2021-10-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would happen if people all around the world stayed inside, away from animals' habitats? Twelve fascinating real-life stories of creatures around the globe who reclaimed their habitat during the COVID-19 quarantine show animal lovers and aspiring citizen scientists how to help wildlife by fighting habitat loss. A Junior Library Guild selection. With the skies, roads, and waterways clear and quiet during the COVID-19 pandemic, the natural world seemed to return to an earlier, wilder state. Animals crossed boundaries that people had set over centuries, reclaiming ancient habitats. From sea lions who clambered into a parking lot in Argentina to deer who wandered in a Japanese subway to lions lounging in the middle of South African roads to kangaroos who bounced through a shopping district in Australia, this thoroughly researched, stunningly illustrated book tells the stories of these newly footloose creatures -- and describes what the COVID-19 "pause" taught scientists about how ecosystems and wildlife can rebound if the right environmental conditions are achieved.
