Summary, Etc. Note: |
Summary: In this book, a diverse group of environmental writers explore the natural history of wildlife species deemed filthy, invasive, or worthless, highlighting the vexed relationship humans have with such creatures. Each essay focuses on a so-called trash species - gulls, coyotes, carp, and magpies, among others - examining the biology and behavior of each in contrast to the assumptions widely held about them. |
