Synopsis Wild Animal Neighbors by : Ann Downer
Audisee® eBooks with Audio combine professional narration and sentence highlighting for an engaging read aloud experience! What would you do if you found an alligator in your garage? Or if you spotted a mountain lion downtown? In cities and suburbs around the world, wild creatures are showing up where we least expect them. Not all of them arrive by accident, and some are here to stay. As the human population tops seven billion, animals are running out of space. Their natural habitats are surrounded—and sometimes even replaced—by highways, shopping centers, office parks, and subdivisions. The result? A wildlife invasion of our urban neighborhoods. What kinds of animals are making cities their new home? How can they survive in our ecosystem of concrete, steel, and glass? And what does their presence there mean for their future and ours? Join scientists, activists, and the folks next door on a journey around the globe to track down our newest wild animal neighbors. Discover what is bringing these creatures to our backyards—and how we can create spaces for people and animals to live side by side.

Synopsis On the Edge of the Wilderness by : Walter Prichard Eaton
Excerpt from On the Edge of the Wilderness: Tales of Our Wild Animal Neighbors The author acknowledges indebtedness to more than one acquaintance for observed records of animal behavior, which he has incorporated in these tales. His thanks are especially due to William Sargood, Deputy Game Warden for Southern Berkshire (Massachusetts), to Hamilton Gibson, to Walter King Stone, and to Warwick S. Carpenter, of the New York State Conservation Commission. The primary object of the stories being, however, to reconstruct imaginatively the life of the wild creatures while they are not under observation, but living out their normal existence, the author would not seem in any way to shift the responsibility for the natural history herein contained.

Synopsis Animals as Neighbors by : Terry O'Connor
For thousands of years, humans have categorized animals as either domestic or wild. And yet, around the world, a more nuanced relationship exists, that of commensal animals, species that have adapted to our homes, our towns, and our artificial landscapes, finding ways to gain benefit from our activities and so becoming an important part of our everyday lives. A fascinating investigation, this text draws on archaeological records to explore human-animal relations.

Synopsis The Humane Gardener by : Nancy Lawson
In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
