Der Axolotl ist wohl einer der beliebtesten und zugleich auch einer der geheimnisvollsten Aquarienbewohner überhaupt. Nicht selten wird der Axolotl auch als der lachende Drache im Aquarium bezeichnet und auf diese Weise lässt dieses possierliche Tierchen auch die Herzen zahlreicher Kinder, aber auch unzähliger erwachsener Aquarianer höherschlagen.

The current view of science is that Earth is around 4.6 billion years old. The first four billion years of its development are known as the Precambrian period. For the first billion years or so, there was no life on Earth, and then the first single-celled life-forms, early bacteria and algae, began to emerge. It’s unknown where they came from or even if they originated on this planet at all, but this gradual development continued until suddenly (in relative geological terms), more complex forms of life began to emerge.

We are told that in Tartary, each native makes the iron he needs, just as every household would make its own bread. The furnace is a very small affair, not holding more than three pounds of ore. This is filled with ore and charcoal. The bellows are used, and after the charcoal is all burned out, the result is a small piece of spongy iron, which needs only repeated heating and hammering to be made serviceable.

Growing up in Central Africa in the 1950's-60's was an exciting time. A boy that was mischievous and a dead ringer for the characters 'Dennis' or 'Huckleberry Finn' and inclined to be accident prone was a pretty good recipe for almost daily disasters. Here I present some of them, a laugh, a bit of horror, poignant love stories and near death experiences fill the book.

Kommunikation mit Tieren - Eine intensive Ebene des Kontakts. Viele Menschen sprechen mit Tieren. Unter Tierkommunikation wird allerdings eine besondere Form des Kontakts und Austauschs mit dem Tier verstanden: Die Kommunikation findet nicht verbal statt, sondern es handelt sich um eine Form der Telepathie oder des energetischen Austauschs auf gedanklicher Ebene. Es geht darum, die Sichtweise eines Tieres zu verstehen, wie es fühlt und denkt, oder auch, um herauszufinden, was es gesundheitlich belasten könnte.

August 2021. The Taliban invaded Kabul. The British Government was Missing in Action. The evacuation was disastrous, shambolic and deadly.

Serendipity tells the story of James Estes’s life as a naturalist and the concepts that have driven his interest in researching the ecological role of top-level predators. Using the relationships between sea otters, kelp, and sea urchins as a touchstone, Estes retraces his investigations of numerous other species, ecosystems, and ecological processes in an attempt to discover why ecologists can learn so many details about the systems in which they work and yet understand so little about the broader processes that influence these systems.
