Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. xii, 356 pp. Original cloth, large 8vo. Near Fine, without dust jacket. Lions are the only social cat. They hunt together, raise cubs together, and defend territories together against neighbors and strangers.

With a wealth of breathtaking photographs by Daniel Rosengren, The Lion sheds light on a host of intriguing scientific questions, such as why males have manes, why lions are social, how sociality limits and stabilizes lion populations, how close inbreeding affects lion health, why lions become man-eaters, how lions and people can best be protected from each other, and how to ensure the lion's survival into the next century. Engagingly written by the world's foremost expert on African lions Integrates a wealth of findings from two of the most comprehensive field studies on any animal Features hundreds of stunning photographs that capture a broad range of lion behaviors, ecological interactions, and conservation challenges Blends vivid field anecdotes and graphics to give the reader a sense of adventuring into the lion's world.…
