Countdown to extinction: animals in danger! / Burnie, David 2008  Book
Burnie, David Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Oxford, Oxford University Press, 2008.
Description 80pWhite spine
Summary/Abstract Examines the many reasons for the extinction and near-extinction of animal species, including hunting, vanishing habitats, introduced species, fishing, pollution and disease. "Today, there are over 6.5 billion people in the world. Together, we take up more space, eat more food and create more waste than any other form of life. Human dominance may be good news for us, but it's bad news for many other animals that share the planet with us. David Burnie looks at extinction from the mass wipe-out of the dinosaurs, 65 million years ago, to the probable extinction of the tiger within the next ten years. He covers many species from the cuddly and much-loved panda to the less attractive thylacine, classed as vermin but no less valuable to the ecological balance of the planet. All sorts of animals are represented, from the feathered and winged to the slimy and scaly."
Contents In the hunters' sights: Prehistoric extinctions ; As dead as a dodo ; Food on the hoof ; Shot from the skies ; Tusk trouble ; Vanishing cats ; The wildlife trade Vanishing habitats: Shrinking forests ; Monkeys in trouble ; Predators on the run ; Dwindling wetlands ; Coral reefs Introduced species: Islands apart ; Land of the moas ; Mammals at war ; Underwater invaders Water Graves: Whales and whaling ; Dolphins in danger ; Caught by mistake ; Endangered sharks Pollution and diseases: Amphibian alert ; Accidental deaths ; Oil spills ; Diseases on the move ; Global warming What next?: Captive breeding ; Saving habitats ; Looking ahead
