Nature Mysteries

Nesse livro, Peter Wohlleben compartilha conosco fascinantes histórias sobre as emoções, os sentimentos e a inteligência dos animais que nos cercam. Através de casos impressionantes de porcos leais, pássaros que traem as companheiras e galos conspiradores, ele mescla recentes descobertas científicas à própria experiência como engenheiro florestal para mostrar como os animais interagem com o mundo. Você vai ver que embora sejam diferentes de nós de muitas formas impressionantes, eles são, ao mesmo tempo, mais parecidos conosco do que poderíamos imaginar.
