CHICKENS LIB is about passion, conviction and how two women, Clare Druce and her mother, Violet Spalding, were driven to highlight the intolerable and cruel conditions on Britains factory farms. They staged demonstrations inside the Ministry of Agriculture, caged humans in Parliament Square, were thrown out of Wakefield Cathedral by the Provost and pursued by the police. Battery hens were their first concern but later CHICKENS LIB campaigned on a much wider front - from quail to ostriches, and for other, non-feathered , farm animals. Farmers were, and still are, routinely administering antibiotics to their animals to keep them alive in squalid and stressful conditions while multi-national drug companies continue to profit.

Coastwise examines the coastline of the British Isles as a dynamic environment and offers you an understandable explanation of how the coastline functions as a single entity. It is supported by hundreds of stunning photos and illustrations. It begins by exploring how the forces of nature combine to create its physical features (and continue to do so). This is a multifaceted story that involves ancient geology and powerful ocean forces. It then turns to the living nature of the coast, covering the unique plants, animals and other organisms whose interdependence keeps the coast alive and healthy. These amazing creatures are described and displayed in full colour. The third part of the book looks at how humans have interacted with the coast, using it for defence, commerce and leisure. It explores these aspects from the earliest times to the present day. The final section shows, for each coastal region, where the features discussed in the book can be observed and enjoyed, giving you a practical way of exploring the elements described in the book. All aspects of the coast are covered, making it essential reading or a wonderful gift for all those who spend time on Britains coast. As Countryfile presenter, Tom Heap, says in his Foreword: "These pages are a practical love letter to Britains waterfront and no seaside holiday home should be without them."

¿Estamospreparados paraescuchar lo quepuedencontarnos? Unviaje alfuturo de lacomunicación conlosanimales.«Un libro fascinante y profundamente humano».Greta ThunbergEl 12 de septiembre de 2015, el cin

Descubrir el lenguaje de los animales no humanos y cómo se comunican ha sido una de las ambiciones de la humanidad desde los tiempos de Aristóteles. Y aunque el deseo de muchas personas sea, quizás, tener las habilidades para aprender a comunicarnos con ellos, la realidad es que estamos bastante lejos de hacerlo. De lo que no hay duda es de que los animales se comunican. La ecologia del comportamiento lleva casi un siglo mostrando que el curso de la evolucion ha ido modelando esta suerte de interaccion social en las formas mas variopintas: colores intensos, sonidos armoniosos, gestos desafiantes La comunicacion parece nacer de un impulso natural que los animales tenemos dentro y que comenzo hace millones de años. A traves de esta obra conoceremos como se producen, reciben e interpretan las señales que utilizan muchos animales, asi como el papel que tiene el ambiente en este proceso y como explica la ecologia evolutiva estos fenomenos cuyo origen podria estar ligado a la necesidad de sobrevivir y reproducirse.

La presente edición del libro COMPORTAMIENTO PRODUCTIVO Y REPRODUCTIVO EN CAPRINOS EN TRÓPICO SECO fue diseñada como libro de consulta, pensando en productores, técnicos, estudiantes y profesores, como lectores principales; el cual esta integrada por ocho secciones o capitulos. Se discuten temas de manejo y sistemas de produccion, fisiologia y anatomia de la ubre, bases de la inseminacion artificial, reproduccion y medio ambiente y regulacion farmacologica de la reproduccion, como areas principales. Ademas, en cada seccion se discuten temas especificos acerca de anatomia y fisiologia del aparato genital y la ubre, regulacion de la reproduccion por factores ambientales y la metodologia del manejo farmacologico de la reproduccion. Tambien se discuten temas sobre los sistemas de produccion para pequeños rumiantes en el tropico seco de Mexico, con enfoque de sustentabilidad. Se discutieron los temas de manera amplia y concisa, con la intencion de facilitar la lectura y compresion de los mismos, siempre con enfoque sobre los componentes productivos.

El comportamiento social representa un aspecto central de la conducta de los animales que se manifiesta a través del contacto físico y del uso de diversas señales de comunicación (ej., químicas, auditivas, visuales), lo que modula, entre otras, las interacciones asociadas al acceso a recursos criticos como alimento, apareamiento o refugio para evitar depredadores, y posibilitan grados variables de cuidado de las crias y distintas formas de cooperacion.El comportamiento social ha enfatizado el uso de unas pocas especies de laboratorio, asi como especies silvestres de regiones distintas de Chile y otras regiones vecinas. Este libro explora los estudios realizados en especies menos conocidas, como algunos vertebrados e invertebrados nativos de Chile, los cuales tienen un alto potencial para contribuir directamente a un desarrollo integrativo de la teoria existente.En los capitulos de este libro se aborda la diversidad de elementos del comportamiento social examinados y como dichos elementos difieren o se asemejan a aquellos de otras especies ya estudiadas. Ademas, se entrega organizadamente informacion hasta ahora dispersa sobre variados atributos del comportamiento social de especies nativas de Chile. Se enfatiza la necesidad e importancia de desarrollar aun mas el estudio cientifico del comportamiento social en especies nativas.El presente volumen busca educar a un publico no especializado sobre la singularidad y el valor cientifico del comportamiento social que caracteriza a la fauna nativa de este pais. Ademas, se espera incentivar a estudiantes en formacion e investigadores de disciplinas afines a considerar modelos sociales locales y explorar nuevos organismos de estudio para abordar problematicas novedosas e integrativas.
