Mountain Gorillas
Thirty Years of Research at Karisoke
von Martha M. Robbins (Redaktion), Pascale Sicotte (Redaktion) & Kelly J. Stewart (Redaktion)
Gebundene Ausgabe, 446 Seiten, 18 Duotonfotos, 46 Schwarzweißillustrationen
Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteCambridge University Press (UK), Juli 2001, ISBN 0-521-78004-7
Rückentext: "For the past three decades the mountain gorillas of Karisoke Research Center have been the subject of many studies focusing on their behavior and ecology. Long-term observations on known individuals, from birth to death, as well as data on social behavior within and between groups have led to an understanding of many aspects of the social system of gorillas. The findings have made significant contributions to models of comparative primate behavioral ecology. Mountain gorillas have also been the focus of intense conservation efforts, which have become a model for conservation programs elsewhere. While most of what we know about the genus Gorilla is based on mountain gorillas, data on the other two recognized subspecies have increased over the past 20 years. This book highlights and summarizes some of the behavioral, ecological, and conservation work on mountain gorillas, and makes comparisons with findings from other study sites. Aimed at graduate students and researchers in primatology and behavioural ecology, it will also appeal to all those interested in gorilla conservation, and represents the most up-to-date and diverse collection of information available on this endangered ape."

Ngorongoro: The Eighth Wonder
A Survival Special on African Wildlife
von Henry Fosbrooke, Vorwort von Prinz Bernhard der Niederlande
Gebundene Ausgabe, 264 Seiten, 19 Farb- & 22 Schwarzweißfotos auf 24 Tafeln, Schwarzweißillustrationen, Diagramme, Tabellen, 5 Karten
Andre Deutsch (UK), Juni 1972, ISBN 0-233-96035-X
Klappentext: "The Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteNgorongoro Crater in Tanzania is probably Africa's most beautiful game reserve and one of the most spectacular natural wonders on earth. Here, within the great natural arena of the Crater, is concentrated an Africa in miniature, with representatives of virtually all the big game animals. Henry Fosbrooke was the first conservator of the Crater and the surrounding Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteConservation Area, and his acquaintance with Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteNgorongoro goes back over 35 years. In this book he describes every aspect of the Crater; its inhabitants, its wildlife, its history - and its future. The history and prehistory of Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteNgorongoro are fully covered, and include a description of Dr. Leakey's great discoveries at Olduvai Gorge, which is within the Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteConservation Area. Mr. Fosbrooke is particularly concerned to set Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteNgorongoro in the context of its surroundings, and to show that this great showpiece of nature can be preserved only if its role is clearly defined and the means taken to defend it from rash and ill-judged development. But it is the animals who are the centrepiece of the Crater, and of this book. Drawing upon his unrivalled experience, the author assesses the status of each species, its history as a part of the Crater's ecology, and its place in the future. The author also describes the life of the Masai inhabitants of the Crater and their place within the ecology of the Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteConservation Area. Enriched by anecdote, and illuminated by many years of study and research in the field, this is a heart-felt argument for a positive policy that will ensure the survival of the place, its people and its wildlife as what is indeed the eighth wonder of the world."

The Orphans of Tsavo
von Daphne Sheldrick, Vorwort von F. Fraser Darling
Gebundene Ausgabe, 187 Seiten, 4 Farb- & 41 SW-Fotos auf 28 Tafeln, 1 Karte
Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteCollins & Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteHarvill Press (UK), Oktober 1966
Klappentext: "The author is the wife of the Game Warden in charge of Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteTsavo East. Daphne Sheldrick first made her home there when this great and virtually uninhabited tract of territory was in part unexplored. Here she brought up her young family. Her husband was concerned with all the tasks involved in transforming Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteTsavo East into a National Park. He had to put down poaching, counter the devastation of the animal population due to recurrent droughts by setting up a system of irrigation; observe the feeding habits of the elephant and consider the ecological changes likely to arise from them and promote an aerial census of these herds. The side of his work in which his wife plays an outstanding part is in the care of all the orphaned animals which the game scouts bring in. Mrs. Sheldrick has reared some of these from infancy and kept many for a number of years - but she has always done this in the intention of training them to become, not pets, but competent wild animals which can, when the time comes, return to their free life if they choose to do so. Meanwhile, rhino, buffalo, bush pigs, elephant and many other animals wander around her garden and even into her house, providing her children with endless entertainment and her husband with a rare opportunity for making a scientific study of their habits. Mrs. Sheldrick's love of the bush country, her remarkable understanding of animals and her enjoyment of adventure, combine to make her book both convincing and exhilarating."

Portraits in the Wild
Behavior Studies of East African Mammals
von Cynthia Moss
Gebundene Ausgabe, 399 Seiten, 10 Farb- & 87 SW-Fotos auf 36 Tafeln, 1 Karte
Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteHoughton Mifflin Company (USA), 1975, ISBN 0-395-20722-3
Klappentext: "In recent years, a wealth of fascinating new material has been revealed about the ways in which animal societies really work. By studying groups of known individuals in their free wild state, over months and years, scientists are reaching conclusions both startling and important, drawn from work on elephants, zebras, antelopes, baboons, the great cats and many others. Cynthia Moss, who has taken part in some of these field studies herself, here brings together the latest findings on the chief mammals of East Africa. Old myths and legends are dispelled as we begin to comprehend in all its astonishing complexity the social interactions of these extraordinary species. The animals are revealed in their natural habitats, seen through the eyes of trained biologists, not over the sights of a gun or through the bars of a cage. The author vividly describes the elephant's family life, the true nature of the hyena, the role of males and females in the lion pride, the complex 'friendships' among baboons. The color and black-and-white photographs in this book are by wildlife specialists and each is selected to show some behavioral or ecological facet of the animal's life, including events rarely recorded in the wild before. Each chapter is devoted to one species or group of related species and describes the animal's life as it is now known and the work of the scientists who made the discoveries - Hans and Ute Klingel, George Schaller, Hans Kruuk, Iain Douglas-Hamilton and many more. Many of the scientists spent months at a time in the bush, hoping that their discoveries would help in the animals' ultimate conservation."

Pride of Lions
von Brian Bertram
Gebundene Ausgabe, 253 Seiten, 14 Farbfotos auf 8 Tafeln, 97 Schwarzweißfotos, 1 Karte
J.M. Dent & Sons (UK), August 1978, ISBN 0-460-04311-0
Klappentext: "Until recently, almost nothing was known about the way lions lived in the wild. Brian Bertram spent over four years in the Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteSerengeti, studying undisturbed lions there; he learned how to recognize hundreds of lions individually, and single-handedly darted, radio-collared and tracked a number to ensure that he could always find them and their pride, and so study lion behaviour more systematically. Lions alone among cats are social: they are usually to be found in groups, hunting, feeding, grooming, playing and resting with their pride which, as Dr. Bertram shows, is a kind of permanent extended family. Major chapters deal with lions' social behaviour and reproduction, the inter-relatedness of the animals which make up lion prides, and the maintenance and defence of pride territories. The methods by which lions hunt, and sometimes catch, their prey are contrasted with those used by the solitary leopard and cheetah. Dr. Bertram also looks at the evolution of lions and their unique social organization to explain some of the more remarkable points about their way of life - the parasitical males, the practice of infanticide in which males new to a pride indulge, the synchronizing of their reproduction, the extraordinary inefficiency of their mating, and the degree of co-operation among lions who are relatives. Pride of Lions, illustrated throughout with the author's own photographs, is for anyone who enjoys looking at lions and would like to know more about them. It is a vivid and evocative account of Brian Bertram's work in the most magnificent of the world's wildlife areas, the conservation of which is so vital to the survival of wild lions and the multitude of other animals - including humans - who share their superb habitat."

A Primate's Memoir
A Neuroscientist's Unconventional Life Among the Baboons
von Robert M. Sapolsky
Gebundene Ausgabe, 304 Seiten
Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteScribner (USA), März 2001, ISBN 0-7432-0247-3
Klappentext: "»I had never planned to become a savanna baboon when I grew up; instead, I had always assumed I would become a mountain gorilla,« writes Robert Sapolsky in this witty and riveting chronicle of a scientist's coming-of-age in remote Africa. Raised in an intellectual, immigrant family in Brooklyn, Sapolsky wished he could live in the primate diorama in the Museum of Natural History. He wrote fan letters to primatologists, started reading their textbooks at age fourteen, and even learned Swahili in high school, all with the hopes of one day joining his primate brethren in Africa. Finally, upon graduating from college, Sapolsky's dream comes true when, at age twenty-one, he leaves the comforts of the United States for the very first time to join a baboon troop in Kenya as a 'young transfer male'. Book smart and naive, Sapolsky sets out to study the relationship between stress and disease. But he soon learns that life in the African bush bears little resemblance to the tranquillity of a museum diorama. He is alone in the middle of the Neues Fenster öffnen & Seite von anderer Website laden / Open new window & load page from other websiteSerengeti with no radio, no television, no electricity, no running water, and no telephone. His nearest neighbors are the Masai, a warlike tribespeople whose marriages are polygamous, with wedding parties featuring tureens of cow's blood. The victim of countless scams and his own idealistic illusions, Sapolsky nevertheless survives culinary atrocities, gunpoint encounters, and a surreal kidnapping, while witnessing the encroachment of the tourist mentality on the farthest vestiges of unspoiled Africa. As he conducts unprecedented physiological research on wild primates, he becomes evermore enamored with his subjects - unique and compelling characters in their own right - and he returns to them summer after summer, until tragedy finally prevents him. Here is Robert Sapolsky's exhilarating account of his life in the bush with neighbors both human and primate, by turns hilarious and poignant. The culmination of more than two decades of experience and research, A Primate's Memoir is a magnum opus from one of our foremost scientist-writers."
