A classic resource for teachers is now back in an updated edition. Using an inductive and experimental approach, Animal Coloration aims to increase students' awareness of the ways wild organisms are adapted to their environments.

Describes the ways animals use color as camouflage, warn predators they're poisonous, and communicate with friends and enemies. Some animals change colors when they get hot or cold, or when they are scared, while others change color as they age. Features two-page spreads of animals from each color of the rainbow and animals in multiple color combinations.

Discusses animal colors and explains why color is important for survival.

Red is an important color to animals. The mandrill ape with the most red on his face will be the leader of the group. The healthier a rooster is the brighter its comb is. Red Animals will help readers understand that colors in nature are not just for beauty, but sometimes have more important purposes. Included in this title is a color wheel showing primary and secondary colors and their relationships. Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards.

Why should the bright and flashy animals get all of the attention? If you look closely at some seemingly ordinary animals, you may find a colorful surprise. A lizard is brown. A hippo is gray. But wait! The lizard has a blue tongue to scare predators, and the hippo has pink "sweat" that protects it from the sun! Brilliant photos accompany author Jane Park's rhyming nonfiction text in this playful exploration of animals' hidden colors.

Background Lesions in Laboratory Animals will be an invaluable aid to pathologists needing to recognize background and incidental lesions while examining slides taken from laboratory animals in acute and chronic toxicity studies, or while examining exotic species in a diagnostic laboratory. It gives clear descriptions and illustrations of the majority of background lesions likely to be encountered. Many of the lesions covered are unusual and can be mistaken for treatment-related findings in preclinical toxicity studies. The Atlas has been prepared with contributions from experienced toxicological pathologists who are specialists in each of the laboratory animal species covered and who have published extensively in these areas. - over 600 high-definition, top-quality color photographs of background lesions found in rats, mice, dogs, minipigs, non-human primates, hamsters, guinea pigs and rabbits - a separate chapter on lesions in the reproductive systems of all laboratory animals written by Dr Dianne Creasy, a world expert on testicular lesions in laboratory animals - a chapter on common artifacts that may be observed in histological glass slides - extensive references to each lesion described - aging lesions encountered in all laboratory animal species, particularly in rats in mice which are used for carcinogenicity studies
