Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -In the 1960s, it was believed that no more than about 4,000 orang-utans remained in the wild. Consequently, IUCN - The World Conservation Union - declared the ape an endangered species, demanding its world-wide protection. Nevertheless, the orang-utan today faces extinction because it is dependent on a rain-forest habitat that is rapidly being demolished due to human greed, and a growing human population.Rijksen was among the first to make a detailed study of the ape in the wild, emerging as an authority on orang-utan conservation. In the late 1980s he became so alarmed by local rumours of the rapid decline of wild orang-utans that he initiated the study leading to this book. Meijaard conducted the ambitious, island-spanning surveys in Borneo and Sumatra to reveal the ape's whereabouts.This is the story of their findings. It is the first comprehensive study of the ape's distribution and status based on a wealth of first-hand field data, and a frank, disturbing account of a mixture of good intentions, ignorance and greed, spelling doom for our Asian relative.Nevertheless, the authors emphasise that the orang-utan can survive. A realistic plan to save the ape, and with it thousands of unique wild animals and plants, does exist. It is the authors' hope that Our Vanishing Relative, so urgent and eloquent in its description of the deadly net of problems descending over our helpless relative, will awaken attention and empathy in order to safeguard the future of the orang-utan. 484 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Wild pigs inhabit vast areas in Europe, Southern Asia and Africa, and have been introduced in North and South America, while feral pigs are widespread in Australia and New Zealand. Many wild pig species are threatened with extinction, but Eurasian wild boar populations, however, are increasing in many regions. Covering all wild pig and peccary species, the Suidae and Tayassuidae families, this comprehensive review presents new information about the evolution, taxonomy and domestication of wild pigs and peccaries alongside novel case studies on conservation activities and management. One hundred leading experts from twenty five countries synthesise understanding of this group of species; discussing current research, and gaps in the knowledge of researchers, conservation biologists, zoologists, wildlife managers and students. This beautifully illustrated reference includes the long history of interactions between wild pigs and humans, the benefits some species have brought us and their role and impact on natural ecosystems.

Z.p. onbekend 2012 Gebonden, 160pp., 24,5x22,5cm., rijkelijk geïllustr. in kleur en z/w., in zeer goede staat. Met handtekening van Omer Gielliet op het schutblad. ISBN 9789491528002. Omer Gielliet (Biervliet, 14 mei 1925) werd op 21 augustus 1967 kapelaan te Groede en kreeg later een vaste plek in Breskens. Hij ontwikkelde zich tot een gerespecteerde persoonlijkheid; met zijn beelden maakte hij de Sint-Barbarakerk wereldberoemd. Hij was priester, kunstenaar, schrijver, dichter, filosoof, reiziger, milieuactivist en vluchtelingenhelper. Hij verwierf naam met zijn houtsculpturen - vaak met hout van tienduizenden jaren oud. Hij ontving vluchtelingen thuis, zette zich in voor milieuacties zoals Redt de Schelde, en zette zich volledig in voor mensen in nood. Dit boek is een samenstelling van interviews, krantenartikelen en getuigenissen rond zijn levenswerk en gedachtengoed; rijk geïllustreerd met foto's van zijn kunstwerken en beeltenissen.
