Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. First Dover Edition. 207 Pages Indexed Plus Dover Catalogue. As New book with no defects noted. Interior text pages are flawless. Zoos are centers of research where scientists conduct studies that would be impossible among animals in the wild state. In some cases, the biologist or psychologist i…s able to examine carefully elements that can only be imprecise for a wild animal: physiology, longevity, habits, etc. In other situations the zoo observer can watch the interplay between environment and animal and see the various aberrations that may emerge when environment has been changed. For example, certain animals like foxes and hares, which do not normally climb trees, often become climbers in zoo situations. A considerable body of data has been assembled, most of which information is either scattered in technical journals or unpublished. Dr. Hediger, one of the world's foremost authorities on zoos, has gathered this information based upon experiment and observation, and has presented it in terms of territory and space, social relationships, range, escape patterns, physical environment and reactions to it, biological environment, food, excretion, breeding and relationship to man. This material is of prime importance to everyone in the fields of experimental biology, zoology and psychology. It is also a fascinating survey of data for the layman to increase the reader's understanding of zoo animals. 6 tables. 34 figures, including maps, diagrams, and 33 photographs. Dover book pages are sewn in signatures and the binding will not crack or split.

Contact seller5-star sellerTrade Paperback. Condition: Fine. 166 Pages Indexed. A Dover permanent book that appears to have never been opened. Pages are sewn in signatures so that the binding will not split. Unabridged republication of English translation. Interior text pages are flawless. Illustrated with 30 photographs. In this book the author, Director… of the Zurich Zoo uses his observations for a series of essays in animal psychology with emphasis on the behavior of animals in zoos and circuses. He discusses the history of animal psychology as a science using examples of wild animals that develop without man's interference. He discusses how animals live in the wild, demonstrating the similarities of human and animal homes, even to the extent of room divisions and roads between homes. Dr. Hediger includes fascinating accounts of curious facts such as the mysterious synchronization that allows shoals of fish to move in perfect unison, and his discussion of animal social relationships-fighting, care of the young, and the begging so typical in zoos. There are chapters on flight patterns, the special behavior of circus animals, comparison of wild and domestic animals, animal expression, and play and training. Contents in 11 Chapters: An Approach to Animal Psychology, How Animals Live, The Animal's Daily Life, The Animal and its Enemies, Flight and Hypnosis, Animals Among Themselves, Mother and Child, Wild and Domestic Animals, Animal Psychology in the Circus, Play and Training and The Animal's Expression.
