Curious Species
Author: Whitney Barlow Robles
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300266189
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
A compelling and innovative exploration of how animals shaped the field of natural history and its ecological afterlives Can corals build worlds? Do rattlesnakes enchant? What is a raccoon, and what might it know? Animals and the questions they raised thwarted human efforts to master nature during the so-called Enlightenment--a historical moment when rigid classification pervaded the study of natural history, people traded in people, and imperial avarice wrapped its tentacles around the globe. Whitney Barlow Robles makes animals the unruly protagonists of eighteenth-century science through journeys to four spaces and ecological zones: the ocean, the underground, the curiosity cabinet, and the field. Her forays reveal a forgotten lineage of empirical inquiry, one that forced researchers to embrace uncertainty. This tumultuous era in the history of human-animal encounters still haunts modern biologists and ecologists as they struggle to fathom animals today. In an eclectic fusion of history and nature writing, Robles alternates between careful historical investigations and probing personal narratives. These excavations of the past and present of distinct nonhuman creatures reveal the animal foundations of human knowledge and show why tackling our current environmental crisis first requires looking back in time.

Raccoon Cubs
Author: Ruth Owen
Publisher: Bearport Publishing

Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
These masked beauties of the woods, who also often choose to live in towns, are natives of the Americas. While they may well build their dens in tree holes, they may also choose a spot less desirable to humans—such as someone’s attic! Mother raccoon takes good care of her cute little babies, which are born blind and deaf. She nurses them and quite soon teaches them to climb trees (or houses) and how to search for food. Readers will see how the cubs learn to choose their meals—from fish and bugs to Fido’s food and the seeds in a bird feeder—and how they eventually learn to live on their own. The gorgeous pictures of adorable raccoon cubs are sure to delight emergent readers.
