Tonight, we explore the terrifying tale of the Jersey Devil, a creature born from desperation, blasphemy, and a mother's curse that echoes through nearly three centuries of American folklore.Our story begins in the winter of 1735, deep within New Jersey's Pine Barrens, a vast wilderness that has always been different from other forests. The Lenape Native Americans spoke of this place in hushed tones, calling it a land of shadows where spirits dwelt in the deepest groves.When ...

Robert Macfarlane brings his glittering style to a profound work of travel writing, reportage, and natural history. Is a River Alive? is a joyful, mind-expanding exploration of an ancient, urgent idea: that rivers are living beings who should be recognized as such in imagination and law.

From the 1948 US edition: This is the story of the most publicized jungle animal that ever lived. In his best-selling Man-Eater's of Kumaon, Jim Corbett told of his battles with many man-eating tigers. In this book he tells a sustained and climactic story of his hard-won battle with a single leopard. Leopards very rarely become man-eaters, but those few that do are the peers of the man-eating tigers in ferocity and possess an even greater cunning.

The roots of today's environmental catastrophe run deep into humanity's past. Through this unprecedented reading of Homer's Iliad, the award-winning classicist Edith Hall examines how this foundational text both documents the environmental practices of the ancient Greeks and betrays an awareness of the dangers posed by the destruction of the natural landscape. Underlying Homer's account of brutal military operations, alliances, and cataclysmic struggle is a palpable understanding that the direction in which humanity was headed could create a world that was uninhabitable.

Wichtig ist aber, die Erkrankung anzunehmen und neben der medikamentösen Behandlung durch ...

Episode 41 of the famous Chasmosaurs Podcast is here, and it's a bittersweet one.

For one thing, there's the new Walking With Dinosaurs series, which we refuse to review in this episode! Also, there's a whole bunch of other palaeomedia coming, as well! Why don't the English know about Jan Sovák? Did the keen olfactory sense of tyrannosaurs evolve to ...
