Mon chien est devenu un ange: Comment parler pour que votre chien écoute quelle que soit la race
by Angel MeadowsDÉCOUVREZ COMMENT VOTRE CHIEN PEUT DEVENIR UN ANGE DÈS MAINTENANT ! Beaucoup de gens ramènent un chien d’un refuge ou d’un éleveur en pensant que tout va être tout rose. Ils pensent qu’ils ont une boule de joie qui ressemble à un nuage sur pattes. Mais la vie en reste rarement au stade de l’innocence. Bien que vous aimiez votre chiot à la folie, vous êtes confronté à des problèmes, en proie à la frustration, dépassé par les événements et commencez même à vous remettre en question. Chaque jour, des personnes se demandent comment agir avec leurs chiens. Cela peut être à cause de problèmes de comportement fréquents comme de l’agressivité ou de l’hyperactivité, une volonté de ne pas obéir aux ordres, ou tout simplement que le tout nouveau protecteur ne sait pas par où commencer en termes d’éducation. C’est sans surprise : les gens sont perdus. Pendant des décennies, la mésinformation et les fausses théories se sont répandues sur l’éducation canine. Certaines de ces méthodes d’éducation sont tellement dangereuses qu’elles ont accentué les tendances agressives chez les chiens. Ce n’est la faute de personne, les propriétaires ne faisant que suivre ces conseils malavisés dans l’espoir d’aider leur chien. Ce n’est pas la faute du chien non plus, étant effrayé et vulnérable, il n’a d’autre option que de répondre à l’agression pour se protéger. Fort heureusement, vous pouvez éviter cette issue tragique. Grâce aux chercheurs qui ont consacré leurs carrières aux chiens, nous avons maintenant la connaissance nécessaire pour distinguer quelles méthodes vont mettre en échec et quelles méthodes vont être couronnées de succès, pour les humains comme pour les canidés. Nous savons maintenant que les meutes de loup ne sont pas constamment en train de se battre ni d’attaquer aux premiers signes de faiblesse. Les loups sont une famille qui s’entraide et prend soin de se

Monarchs and Milkweed: A Migrating Butterfly, a Poisonous Plant, and Their Remarkable Story of Coevolution
by Anurag AgrawalThe fascinating and complex evolutionary relationship of the monarch butterfly and the milkweed plantMonarch butterflies are one of nature's most recognizable creatures, known for their bright colors and epic annual migration from the United States and Canada to Mexico. Yet there is much more to the monarch than its distinctive presence and mythic journeying. In Monarchs and Milkweed, Anurag Agrawal presents a vivid investigation into how the monarch butterfly has evolved closely alongside the milkweed—a toxic plant named for the sticky white substance emitted when its leaves are damaged—and how this inextricable and intimate relationship has been like an arms race over the millennia, a battle of exploitation and defense between two fascinating species.The monarch life cycle begins each spring when it deposits eggs on milkweed leaves. But this dependency of monarchs on milkweeds as food is not reciprocated, and milkweeds do all they can to poison or thwart the young monarchs. Agrawal delves into major scientific discoveries, including his own pioneering research, and traces how plant poisons have not only shaped monarch-milkweed interactions but have also been culturally important for centuries. Agrawal presents current ideas regarding the recent decline in monarch populations, including habitat destruction, increased winter storms, and lack of milkweed—the last one a theory that the author rejects. He evaluates the current sustainability of monarchs and reveals a novel explanation for their plummeting numbers.Lavishly illustrated with more than eighty color photos and images, Monarchs and Milkweed takes readers on an unforgettable exploration of one of nature's most important and sophisticated evolutionary relationships.

Monarchs in a Changing World: Biology and Conservation of an Iconic Butterfly
by Kelly R. Nail Karen S. Oberhauser Sonia AltizerMonarch butterflies are among the most popular insect species in the world and are an icon for conservation groups and environmental education programs. Monarch caterpillars and adults are easily recognizable as welcome visitors to gardens in North America and beyond, and their spectacular migration in eastern North America (from breeding locations in Canada and the United States to overwintering sites in Mexico) has captured the imagination of the public.Monarch migration, behavior, and chemical ecology have been studied for decades. Yet many aspects of monarch biology have come to light in only the past few years. These aspects include questions regarding large-scale trends in monarch population sizes, monarch interactions with pathogens and insect predators, and monarch molecular genetics and large-scale evolution. A growing number of current research findings build on the observations of citizen scientists, who monitor monarch migration, reproduction, survival, and disease. Monarchs face new threats from humans as they navigate a changing landscape marked by deforestation, pesticides, genetically modified crops, and a changing climate, all of which place the future of monarchs and their amazing migration in peril. To meet the demand for a timely synthesis of monarch biology, conservation and outreach, Monarchs in a Changing World summarizes recent developments in scientific research, highlights challenges and responses to threats to monarch conservation, and showcases the many ways that monarchs are used in citizen science programs, outreach, and education. It examines issues pertaining to the eastern and western North American migratory populations, as well as to monarchs in South America, the Pacific and Caribbean Islands, and Europe. The target audience includes entomologists, population biologists, conservation policymakers, and K-12 teachers.
Monarchs of the Sea: The Extraordinary 500-million-year History Of Cephalopods
by Danna StaafFrom the author of Nursery Earth, a “nimble, fast, surprising, smart, and weird in the very coolest sense of the word” (Sy Montgomery) exploration of the sometimes enormous, often bizarre creatures that ruled the seas long before the first dinosaurs—a Science Friday Book Club Pick Cephalopods, Earth’s first truly substantial animals, are still among us: Their fascinating family tree features squid, octopuses, nautiluses, and more. The inventors of swimming, cephs presided over the sea for millions of years. But when fish evolved jaws, cephs had to step up their game (or end up on the menu). Some evolved defensive spines. Others abandoned their shells entirely, opening the floodgates for a tidal wave of innovation: masterful camouflage, fin-supplemented jet propulsion, and intelligence we’ve yet to fully measure. In Monarchs of the Sea, marine biologist Danna Staaf unspools how these otherworldly creatures once ruled the deep—and why they still captivate us today. Publisher’s Note: Monarchs of the Sea was previously published in hardcover as Squid Empire.

Monkey
by David Seow Lakhee Tay-AudouardThis Chinese children's story is beautifully illustrated with traditional Chinese watercolor-inspired paintings.Monkey: The Classic Chinese Adventure Tale is inspired by Chinese folktales and legends about Monkey, King of the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit, Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

Hilariously mischievous and full of energy, Monkey has uniquely amazing magical powers.Long ago, the Jade Emperor, the ruler of the Heavens, was so unhappy that China was in great turmoil that he even considered destroying its people. The Goddess of Mercy, Guan Yin, suggested another way-find Lord Buddha's scriptures in India and bring them back to China-this would help the Chinese to become peaceful and kind. This tale is about the beginnings of this epic journey, and how Monkey, Pigsy, and Sandy join this quest.
