Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Unlock the Secrets of the Canopy's Most Enigmatic ResidentStep into the hidden world of the Sunda Flying Lemur (Galeopterus variegatus), the silent master of the Southeast Asian rainforest. Often misunderstood and rarely seen, this extraordinary gliding mammal-the closest living relative to p…rimates-is the subject of this definitive, professional-grade handbook.Spanning 20 comprehensive chapters, this guide bridges the gap between high-level science and accessible natural history. Whether you are a primatologist, a wildlife rehabilitator, a conservationist, or a passionate naturalist, this book offers an unparalleled look at a lineage that has survived for over 60 million years.Inside the Handbook: - Evolutionary Enigmas: Discover why the colugo is the 'sister taxon' to all primates and explore its ancient prehistoric roots.- Aerodynamic Mastery: A technical breakdown of the biomechanics of gliding, from the multi-zone patagium to the high-G 'flare' landing.- The Internal Forest: Go microscopic with a deep dive into the colugo's specialized gut microbiome and its unique 'comb-toothed' anatomy.- Ethology & Sociality: Debunk the 'solitary' myth through new research on scent-marking, vocal communication, and communal roosting.- Conservation in the Anthropocene: Navigate the complex legal frameworks of the 'Sunda Four' (Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia) and explore community-led initiatives saving the species from urban encroachment.- Clinical & Field Guidelines: Access the 'Gold Standard' for veterinary care, anesthesia protocols, and ethical wildlife photography.Why This Book The Sunda Flying Lemur Handbook is more than just a collection of facts-it is a call to action. As forests shrink and the climate shifts, understanding the 'Geography of Gravity' and the 'Dipterocarp Connection' is critical to ensuring this ancient glider continues to soar.Packed with standardized ethograms, evidence-based nutritional formulations, and cutting-edge genomic insights, this is the ultimate resource for anyone dedicated to the study and preservation of one of Earth's most fascinating evolutionary masterpieces.Perfect for: Researchers, Biology Students, Zoo Professionals, Wildlife Photographers, and Eco-Travelers.
