Description

[Machine Translation] Eagles exude a unique combination of strength, grace, skillful flight, and hunting prowess. Few animals have captured the imagination of man as they have. The eagle's qualities have made it a symbol of freedom, power, courage, and pride, and it has been raised as a symbol in everything from religious ceremonies to movies and music. They vary widely in size and appearance, from the dwarf hawk, which is no bigger than a dove, to the Steller's sea eagle, which can grow to over a meter in length. Hunting methods also vary. Their habitats range from grasslands and deserts to high mountains, wetlands, tropical rainforests, and oceanic islands. How have these eagles evolved in their different habitats? How do they breed and hunt? How do they relate to local cultures and what threats do they face? This book introduces all 68 species of eagles currently recognized around the world, their enigmatic ecology, and our relationship with them, all accompanied by beautiful photographs.

世界で一番美しい鷲の図鑑 / 原タイトル:THE EMPIRE OF THE EAGLE / マイク・アンウィン/著 齊藤慶輔/監修 布施雄士/訳 デヴィッド・ティプリング/ほか写真

強さや気品、巧みな飛翔能力や狩りの腕前などが合わさった、独特の魅力を放つ鷲たち。彼らほど人間の想像力に働きかけてきた動物は、そういないだろう。鷲の持つ性質は、自由、力、勇気、プライドといったものの象徴とされ、宗教的な儀式から映画や音楽に至るまで、あらゆるもののシンボルとして掲げられてきた。鳩ほどの大きさしかないコビトクマタカから、体長が1mを超えることもあるオオワシまで、大きさや外見は実にさまざま。狩りの方法もまたそれぞれ。生息地も草原や砂漠から高山、湿地、熱帯雨林、そして海洋島まで多岐にわたる。そんな鷲たちは、それぞれの生息地でどのような進化を遂げてきたのか。繁殖や狩りはどのように行うのか。そして各地域の文化との関わりや、彼らが直面する脅威とは―。本書では、世界中で現在認められている68種のすべての鷲に関して、謎に満ちた生態や私たちとの関わりなどについて、美しい写真を交えながら紹介していく。
