About this deal

While we can’t promise that this book will turn you into an axolotl, we can promise that it will help you live a happier, healthier, saner life. Thankfully, plenty of folks agree, including the developers of Minecraft, who introduced an axolotl mob to the game in 2021 to bring attention to this salamander’s current path to extinction and encourage conservation efforts. Some of the technologies we use are necessary for critical functions like security and site integrity, account authentication, security and privacy preferences, internal site usage and maintenance data, and to make the site work correctly for browsing and transactions. They will also learn basic information about axolotls, including what they eat and the story behind their long, feathery gills.

Bittersweet, funny, existential, and hopeful, My Life at the Bottom is a tale of the climate crisis unlike any other.

Certainly, they made to the appeal for some young readers, but at times I was distracted by them and found them a tad too silly. This book begins by describing the Axolotl's obscure name and significance and goes on to cover its feeding, housing, breeding, genetics, and diseases. Bondestam became especially disheartened after the gloomy 2018 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. However, this book is not meant to treat, prevent, or diagnose any disease or condition, nor is it meant as a substitute for medical advice. Personalised advertising may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of information under California and other state privacy laws, and you may have a right to opt out.

The Little Book of Axolotl Wisdom is the perfect gift book for axolotl fanatics as well as any animal lover. Turning off the personalised advertising setting won’t stop you from seeing Etsy ads, but it may make the ads you see less relevant or more repetitive. However, since Cute as an Axolotl implies that the animals selected by Jess Keating, that the animals described and featured in her text are supposed to appear as endearing, as potentially lovable and thus obviously also as sweet looking, sorry, but far too many of David DeGrand's pictures really are not what I would personally consider as cute and cuddly (with some of the illustrations, such as his renditions of the Quokka and the Pygmy Hippopotamus actually appearing even as potentially a bit frightening to very sensitive readers). Other, more common salamanders might look like the axolotl when really young, but their gills will fall off, they’ll grow lungs, they’ll start living on the earth like lizards,” Bondestam said.

The Tiger Salamander is discussed in great detail, including all of its described variants (at the time of publication). The Aztec were so taken with these animals that they incorporated axolotls into their mythology, nicknaming them water dogs and extolling their impish spirit.

In this sweet and beautifully designed small book, a little alien peers through a telescope at all the bedtime rituals on Earth. The facial expressions on the animals have very human fatigue written all over them, which will delight human parents…. This book is a great place to start for any hopeful axolotl parents and I would highly recommend it if it were not for the terrible copy of the binding - both covers have curled and warped completely, with normal household use.So it was a big deal when scientists in 2020 reported the discovery of a 230-million-year-old fossil, the earliest known salamander, in Kyrgyzstan. The soft palette and mottled textures of the water contrasted against the more angular and crowded human world make striking visuals. Why I finished it: I love the last page, when Keating as budding biologists to consider why they like some animals more than others and what features make an animal "cute. I obtained a copy of this book from Barnes and Noble in the US and at that time there were also a few available in the out of print section. I]t neatly resembles Margaret Wise Brown’s classic Good Night Moon, and fans of that book will appreciate the contrast.

The informational nature of this book allows readers to find the animals they want to read about and read just those sections without being lost. By all accounts this is currently the best multi-species (it covers all species at the time of publication) newt and salamander book available, featuring maps and species accounts describing their taxonomy, biology, ecology, behavior and a section on their maintenance and breeding in captivity. The text provides general data on physiology, behavior, and life cycles while also highlighting unique features, such as the platypus’s hunting techniques and the healing ability of the axolotl. If not, you are about to be enchanted by these charming creatures, with their adorable baby faces and extraordinary ability to regenerate limbs and organs.It is Dukaj's first novel and his homepage described the work as his "debut in English", [2] though several of his short stories ( The Golden Galley, 1996, The Iron General, 2010, The Apocrypha of Lem, 2011) have been translated prior to this. For example, the bare-hearted glass frog “has transparent skin on its underside,” so you can see its organs. com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US. Based in New York City, she’s swum with humpback whales in the South Pacific and chased after chimpanzees in Uganda, fed elephants in Laos and sung along with howler monkeys in Nicaragua.
