Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Humans, animals and disease. They''re all inter-related, so why do we keep ignoring the elephant in the room It''s well known that Covid-19 may have come from a bat, but diseases are often transmitted in the other direction too. Humans have passed diseases to animals countless times through history, and it''s the cross-currents of this relationship between humans, animals and disease that are explored by Liz Kalaugher in The Elephant in the Room.Taking the reader on a globe-trotting journey through time, Kalaugher presents a series of fascinating case histories of human-related wildlife diseases. Among the stories featured here are the early humans who may have carried pathogens responsible for the extinction of Neanderthals, the native birds of Hawaii that have been devasted by human-introduced disease, and the Tasmanian tiger that has been lost to the sands of time.Examining these tales and drawing on first-hand accounts from experts around the world, The Elephant in the Room is both a tragic history and an inspirational call to arms. It doesn''t have to be this way. By learning from the past, it''s possible to create a better, healthier environment for ourselves, our wildlife and our planet.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Origin stories for today's viruses often start with animals; HIV in humans begins with a chimpanzee, or our COVID-19 pandemic with possible transmission from bats. But it often works the other way around-humans have caused diseases in other animals countless times throughout history. In this eye-opening and timely book, science journalist Liz Kalaugher explores the invisible crosscurrents between humans, other animals, and disease. Offering readers a front-row seat to today's research on wildlife diseases, each chapter focuses on a single example and incorporates interviews with scientists and other experts. As the book unfolds, we see how humans have spread diseases directly to other animals, and indirectly by altering ecosystems, transporting life around the globe, and changing the planet's climate. In one chapter, Kalaugher examines the role of high-density poultry farms in creating virulent new forms of bird flu that spilled back into the wild and have spread around the world, potentially putting humans at risk of another pandemic. In another chapter, we learn an infectious cancer-canine transmissible venereal tumor-may have wiped out North America's very first dogs, after Europeans' domesticated canid companions introduced the disease. Later, Kalaugher offers evidence that rising global temperatures will further spread diseases like West Nile, which already affects not only crows and humans, but also horses, gray wolves, skunks, squirrels, little brown bats, and alligators. West Nile has trouble spreading at the cooler temperatures (for now) where seventy percent of the US population lives. But as global temperatures increase, so does risk. All these stories make clear that a better understanding of wildlife diseases-and humans' roles in spreading them-is essential for a better and healthier future for all animals, including people'-- Provided by publisher.
