Every Creeping Thing: True Tales of Faintly Repulsive Wildlife , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 580min
Popular natural history writer Richard Conniff received much acclaim for his earlier book, Spineless Wonders: Strange Tales from the Invertebrate World. In the same vein, Every Creeping Thing is a fascinating look at some of nature’s most misunderstood creatures. Traveling the world over, Conniff shatters popular myths and shares extraordinary truths about unfairly maligned animals. For instance, little brown bats help curb mosquito numbers by eating one every six seconds. Despite a reputation as maneaters, sharks ignore all but two or so of the 20 million people who use Hawaiian beaches each year. And about once per week, the three-toed sloth - vicarious host to thousands of bugs - descends 100 feet from its perch to fastidiously relieve itself. With his astute observations and sharp wit, Conniff astounds you one moment, only to have you laughing aloud the next. Richard M. Davidson’s lively narration captures all the wonder of this entertaining and informative book, allowing you to develop a new appreciation for these animals. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Nature's Nether Regions: What the Sex Lives of Bugs, Birds, and Beasts Tell Us About Evolution, Biodiversity, and Ourselves , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 471min
The story of evolution as you’ve never heard it before. What’s the easiest way to tell species apart? Check their genitals. Researching private parts was long considered taboo, but scientists are now beginning to understand that the wild diversity of sex organs across species can tell us a lot about evolution. Menno Schilthuizen invites listeners to join him as he uncovers the ways the shapes and functions of genitalia have been molded by complex Darwinian struggles: penises that have lost their spines but evolved appendages to displace sperm; female orgasms that select or reject semen from males, in turn subtly modifying the females’ genital shape. We learn why spiders masturbate into miniature webs, discover she dungflies that store sperm from attractive males in their bellies, and see how, when it comes to outlandish appendages and bizarre behaviors, humans are downright boring. Nature’s Nether Regions joyfully demonstrates that the more we learn about the multiform private parts of animals, the more we understand our own unique place in the great diversity of life. ungekürzt.

Fairies at Work and Play , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 223min
Enter the fascinating world of nature spirits, as seen by a celebrated clairvoyant. Meet entrancingly beautiful water undines, delicate fairies, ancient and hardworking brownies, and comical gnomes. Geoffrey Hodson describes the vast variety of etheric forms in cooperation with nature, as they invigorate and enliven plants, trees, wind, and bodies of water. Often lighthearted and joyful, nature spirits also show a love for unrestrained frolic, dance, and play. These “little folk” are directed by their inner sense of nature’s plan for the unfoldment of all kingdoms of life. Fairies, for example, can direct radiant energy through their bodies to bring vitality to plants and trees. Work activity is under the guidance of the devas, the “shining ones”, who can radiate spiritual forces over large geographical areas. All play their part in a hierarchy of purposeful spiritual intelligences dedicated to the evolution of life on the planet.Mystic and spiritual teacher Geoffrey Hodson (1886-1983) inspired generations of seekers. His many books include Call to the Heights, The Kingdom of the Gods, and Hidden Wisdom in the Holy Bible. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tim H. Dixon.
