March 2016Der Fisch, der zu den Sternen schwimmen wollte
Roman
by Ahn Do-Hyun, Hyuk Sook Kim, Manfred Selzer
Sanft wiegt der Grüne Fluss die Lachse auf ihrem Weg zum Oberlauf, dem Ort, wo sie geboren wurden. Sie sind weit geschwommen, haben den Fluten des Ozeans getrotzt und sind mutig den Wasserfall hinaufgesprungen – sie sind ihrer Bestimmung gefolgt und haben getan, was Lachse eben so tun. Doch einer unter ihnen, Silberlachs, will sich nicht damit zufriedengeben – der Sinn seines Daseins muss doch aus mehr bestehen, als blind dem Schwarm zu folgen? Immer wieder streckt er den Kopf aus dem Wasser und blickt sehnsüchtig in die Welt da draußen, gar bis zu den Sternen hinauf. Er will frei sein. Doch seine geliebte Freundin Klarauge warnt ihn davor, Regenbogen nachzujagen. Warum bin ich auf der Welt? Was braucht es zum Glück? Die Geschichte des Fisches, der zu träumen wagte, hat Millionen von Lesern verzaubert. Ahn Do-Hyun stellt mit leichter Hand die großen Fragen des Lebens. Denn im weiten Universum ist jeder nur ein kleiner Fisch – und doch ist jedes Leben einzigartig und wunderbar.

May 2024Breed Differences in Dog Behavior
Why Tails Wag Differently
by Renee L Ha, Tracy L Brad, James C Ha
Humans have bred dogs for physical and behavioral characteristics for millennia. These efforts can have unintended side effects, however, which may be either advantageous or cause issues - such as a predisposition to certain medical complaints, or, controversially, behavioural issues. The scientific study of domestic dogs is still in its infancy, but public demand for this information is at a record high as more and more pet owners seek to understand their canine family members. Focusing on the behavioral differences and tendencies that have arisen in different breed lines, this book explores, summarizes, and explains the scientific evidence on what breed can tell us about behaviour - and, crucially, what it cannot. This book covers: - the impact of inbreeding, how it contributes to problematic behavioral issues such as anxiety and aggression, and how it potentially affects the future health of the breed; - the limits of predicting a dog's behavior based upon breed, individual differences within breeds, and thus the corresponding limitations of breed-specific legislation; - guidance for professionals to help their clients better understand behavioral issues, traits, and appropriate expectations around the right breed for their household. Providing a comprehensive and approachable view of the science behind breed-specific behaviors, this book gives dog enthusiasts from all professional and personal backgrounds a better understanding of why dogs do what they do, and how we can improve our relationships with our canine companions. Covering genetics, phylogeny of canids, temperament, aggression, social behavior, and the history of dog breeding, it is an important read for researchers, students, veterinary practitioners and animal behaviourists, as well as shelter staff, dog trainers, or anyone looking for a greater understanding of dog breed differences.

Tilapia are a group of cichlid fish endemic to tropical freshwater in Africa, Jordan and Israel, that are extremely nutritious and in high global demand. They are a popular species to farm because of their relative ease of culture, their tolerance to relatively high stocking densities, large size, rapid growth and palatability. As a thorough exploration of tilapia aquaculture, this book emphasizes the significance of this group of fish and discusses the crucial elements of tilapia farming, including their reproductive and genetic characteristics, the various cultivation systems employed and the emerging governance of the practice. It also addresses important health management issues, focusing on nutrition, immunology, and animal welfare and extensively analyses the diseases that afflict tilapia, how they are diagnosed and what potential zoonotic hazards exist. The value of the book includes: Contributing to the wider understanding of tilapia aquaculture and the importance of the species to global food security. Providing an in-depth discussion on tilapia fish health, including major diseases, nutrition, immunology and disease prevention. Giving detailed insights into tilapia genetics, production systems, and reproduction. Written by an international team of experts to advance the long-term, sustainable growth of the global aquaculture industry, this book is a comprehensive and essential resource for anyone involved in or learning about tilapia farming.
