The Badger Book (okładka  twarda, wyd. 03.2021)

The Badger Book takes its place as part of Graffeg`s compact, accessible Nature Book series, exploring our relationship with some of Britain`s best-loved wild creatures. This addition introduces the wonderfully mysterious and enigmatic Meles meles to the newly curious with fresh information in store for those with a long-standing interest. An inhabitant of British land for thousands of years, badgers have been both revered and reviled, cherished and tormented, beloved and brutalized - The Badger Book takes a closer look at Britain`s largest carnivorous mammal. Alongside magical photography, we examine the science - and politics - around bTB and the controversial badger cull as well as introducing a passionate group of ordinary people dedicated to rescuing them, followed by a meander through the myth, legend, art and literature which has incorporated them into British culture. Chapters include: Badger Physiology, Badger Watching, Badger Threats, The Cull, The Badger Protectors: Wounded Badger, Patrol Cheshire Badgers in Myth & Legend, Badgers in Art & Literature.
