Paperback. Condición: New. "My name is Rick, and I'm a snake-a-holic." This book is a collection of amazing stories from one of the world's leading herpetologists, Rick Shine, who has spent 50 years conducting research on snakes of many different kinds, in many different places around the world, from his home in Australia, throu…gh Asia and Europe, to North America and beyond. There's something special about snakes; they are scarce and secretive and a bite may land you in the cemetery. Something unearthly and mysterious about a creature than can glide across the ground with no obvious means of propulsion. That never blinks its eyes. That can capture, kill and swallow prey items larger than itself. That can dispense death with a few drops of venom. That can slough away its tattered old skin to emerge resplendent and iridescent. A creature that appears magically in front of you when you least expect it, triggering a unique alarm pathway in your brain. The book offers an entertaining and thought-provoking journey through the remarkable diversity of snake lifestyles around the world. It is written from a personal perspective, although the main players are snakes, and with minor roles for a motley assortment of colleagues and students who accompanied the author on his travels. It is packed with first-hand accounts of the excitements of fieldwork in remote areas with dangerous animals and is intended to be accessible to anybody with an interest in the subject.

Paperback. Condición: New. People have always been fascinated by snakes, but only during the last few decades have researchers begun to reveal the secret lives of these most mysterious of animals. Rick Shine is one of the most eminent of those scientists, and his book describes the adventures and misadventures of researchers who… have investigated the ecology and biology of these fantastic beasts - and sometimes, have paid with their lives.This richly-illustrated title chronicles the revolution in our understanding of snakes, the new methods that have arisen to enable those breakthroughs, and the serendipitous and often-chaotic processes by which human beings accumulate insights into other forms of life. Recent years have witnessed an incredible flowering of snake-ecology research, with a rapidly expanding diversity not only of the snake species being studied and the places where this occurs, but also of the kinds of people making those discoveries.Snakes are peculiar animals, and they attract peculiar people. This book captures the thrills and perils of a worldwide scientific leap forward, from fear and ignorance of snakes towards respect and understanding. This professional biologist's ramble through the history of people's attempt to understand the private lives of snakes - with lots of stories about the eccentric pioneers - will appeal to anyone with an interest in snakes and natural history.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. In 1935, an Australian government agency imported 101 specimens of the Central and South American Cane Toad in an attempt to manage insects that were decimating sugar-cane harvests. In Australia the Cane Toad adapted and evolved with abandon, voraciously consuming native wildlife and killing… predators with its lethal skin toxin. Today, hundreds of millions of Cane Toads have spread across the northern part of Australia and continue to move westward. The humble Cane Toad has become a national villain. Cane Toad Wars chronicles the work of intrepid scientist Rick Shine, who has been documenting the toads ecological impact in Australia and seeking to buffer it. Despite predictions of devastation in the wake of advancing toad hordes, the authors research reveals a more complex and nuanced story. A firsthand account of a perplexing ecological problem and an important exploration of how we measure evolutionary change and ecological resilience, this book makes an effective case for the value of long-term natural history research in informing conservation practice. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
