Twelve fascinating real-life stories of creatures around the globe who reclaimed their habitat during the COVID-19 quarantine show animal lovers and aspiring citizen scientists how to help wildlife by fighting habitat loss. With the skies, roads, and waterways clear and quiet during the COVID-19 pandemic, the natural world seemed to return to an earlier, wilder state. Animals crossed boundaries that people had set over centuries, reclaiming ancient habitats. From sea lions who clambered into a parking lot in Argentina to deer who wandered in a Japanese subway to lions lounging in the middle of South African roads to kangaroos who bounced through a shopping district in Australia, this thoroughly researched, stunningly illustrated book tells the stories of these newly footloose creatures -- and describes what the COVID-19 \"pause\" taught scientists about how ecosystems and wildlife can rebound if the right environmental conditions are achieved.","brand":"Scotia Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41926136856759,"sku":"9781662650499","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/5629\/7143\/products\/9781662650499.jpg?v=1695274221","url":"https:\/\/www.scotiabooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9781662650499","provider":"scotia-books-online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
