The wonderful wildlife of our planet is like an earthly paradise. The herds of migrating elephants on the African savanna, mountain gorillas nibbling fruit in the cloud forest, orang-utans swinging through the treetops of the Sumatran jungle, brown bears shambling in the forests and mountains of Europe, hyacinth macaws flying through the Amazonian rainforest or white sharks ploughing through the ocean waves are enthralling sights. Yet the growing human population, converting natural habitats into arable land or pasturage, overhunting, environmental pollution and global warming – in other words human activity – threaten the existence of plant and animal species. However, we hold the key to preserving these dwindling treasures. This book with its spectacular illustrations explores the world of conservation. Looking at some of the exquisite pictures thorough 3D glasses brings the endangered animals almost within reach. / 64 pages / 240 mm × 265 mm / Hardcover / With 3D illustrations!
