第21屆「十本好讀」小學組候選書籍

★英國喜劇演員、兒童作家大衛.威廉姆斯盛讚推薦:「一個神奇的真實故事,配上精美絕倫的插圖。這是一本值得永遠珍藏的書。」
★符合SDGs 目標15|保育及永續利用陸域生態系,確保生物多樣性並防止土地劣化
★了解人類與自然生態的衝突,就從跟隨狼群足跡開始……

童話中的大野狼是邪惡的化身,會吃人、不懷好意……
而現實裡,荒野中的狼是自由的化身,牠們在草原、溪澗上奔跑,
用迅猛的四肢與銳利的爪牙,君臨於黃石國家公園的生態系。
曾幾何時,狼群逐漸消失,缺乏制衡的紅鹿占領各處,
吃光了嫩草、啃完了樹芽,蔥鬱大地被迫褪去了綠衣,
其他小型動物和鳥類因此失去食物和棲地,公園逐漸寂靜無聲……

  黃石國家公園的狼群復育計畫是生態學中一個非常有名的案例,在西元1926年左右,最後一頭狼死在獵槍下,原本完整的生態系失去了頂級消費者而逐漸崩潰。沒有天敵的紅鹿開始大量繁殖,牠們的鐵蹄踏遍公園每寸綠地,啃食所有能吃的植物,讓芳草不再茂密,連樹木的嫩芽都無法倖免,其他體型較小的草食性動物與鳥類大受影響,搶不到嫩草、沒有樹木可棲身,河流兩岸的地形和生態也大不相同。牠們甚至跨越農人設置的圍欄,與牧場動物爭食草糧。

  付出了這些代價後,人們終於了解生態系中的每一個角色都非常重要。透過規劃、立法與實際執行等過程,花了七十年才讓狼群重返黃石國家公園,讓狼群盡可能在自然狀態下回任頂級消費者(生態圈中頂級掠食者)的身分;同時也透過觀察狼群的復育過程,發現曾經消失的動物逐漸回歸故里,草木扶疏足以供養更多生命,讓黃石國家公園逐漸恢復生機。

  這個真實的案例中有非常多值得思考的問題。人類為一己之私而擾亂生態的平衡,究竟是誰要付出代價?生態系的連動有多麼細緻緊密?被破壞的環境和生態關係能完整如初的復原嗎?我們該如何面對人與動物、自然環境的衝突?在生態豐富度與複雜度都極高的臺灣,望向被開發的山林與水泥化的河岸,這也是我們必須正視的大考驗!透過一度消失又再度興起的狼群一起細細思索,渺小的我們該用什麼方式與大自然共存?這些都是我們必須再三思考的問題。

書籍特色

  ★經典實例編寫的生態學最佳入門書
  在本書中,可讓孩子初步接觸食物鏈、生態系、營養瀑布、負荷量等相關的生態學知識,了解生物間的依存是彼此息息相關的。在狼群復育之前,必須先對整體區域中的生態狀況做調查,評估引入狼隻的數量和分配位置,打理國家公園的相關法令;由於狼是具有威脅性的大型肉食動物,復育前必須和從事農牧業的居民進行溝通,以免狼群引入後又重蹈當年被獵殺的覆轍,書中也真實呈現了引入狼群後仍有居民不滿或偷獵的實況。每一頁畫面都有值得深思熟慮的原因與說不完的故事,耐人深讀。

  ★親子共讀或班級互動的生態話題讀本
  生態議題是與地球上每個人都有關係的重要課題,不論是身處美國黃石國家公園或臺灣的我們都責無旁貸。本書透過生動的實際案例改編與靈動迫人的細緻插畫,完整呈現人狼衝突與一連串的連鎖反應,可讓孩子思考身邊是否有類似的情境或案例,例如森林會被缺乏天敵過度繁殖的松鼠啃食樹皮而枯死,部分地區嘗試野養原生種的梅花鹿是否恰當?溢出野外的綠鬣蜥、福壽螺和埃及聖䴉等入侵外來種該如何處置?除了親子共讀刺激孩子關心周遭環境的變化外,也是學校作為鄉土教育與保育教材的最佳讀本。

  ★思索失去後再度挽回的可能性和困難
  在失去狼群的那段時間裡,黃石國家公園內產生了極大變化,這些變動在狼群重返後就能完全恢復嗎?本書中有許多發人深省的議題,也可引導孩子了解自然環境的可貴,一旦被破壞,勢必要付出極大的心力和漫長的時間,才有可能修復,況且可能有即便復育也無法挽回的狀態,例如已被宣布滅絕的臺灣雲豹,或是數量過於稀少而無法再次恢復族群盛況的北白犀,加深加廣思考與探討的彈性與範圍。

Worked well near the equator
Style: SPF 50
I bought this product because I was going to be in the field for a month, outside, every day, all day, in Tanzania at high altitude. A severe sunburn would be hard to treat in the remote area we were in, but also I am very careful about protecting my skin from aging. I had to have mineral based sunscreen because as a whitewater kayaker I know it’s the only truly water resistant kind and it was going to be sweaty. And since I knew I was going to be putting it on every day, and we didn’t have running water in the field (bucket showers only) I didn’t want it to feel gross. (I really wanted to try the spray but I didn’t want to put anything pressurized in my luggage.) And I had already discovered the Coola face sunscreen (30spf version) which had impressed me with how silky smooth and not greasy it is. Now this IS greasier because it is a higher SPF. BUT I think this product is as good as you’re going to get with the protection you’re getting. Like I said, I’m a white water tiger, so I have used a LOT of mineral sunscreens. This was hands down the most comfortable one I’ve used. And it was effective. I didn’t burn once—only time I did burn was when I forgot to put it on one day toward the end of the trip, when we were out for just a couple hours—and I got the first 2nd degree burn I’ve ever had in my life. That was what this stuff had protected me from, all day every day, the entire trip. I did tan a little but I think that was mostly from the few times I was not covered during short bouts or it was cloudy. For my face I used the Coola 50spf face product.

Love this stuff!
Style: SPF 50
I use this every day and I love how it is frangrance free and creamy. I have a very fair complexion and I will say it leaves a slight white cast but it doesn’t bother me because it almost makes my fairness more creamy looking. My skin texture has improved since wearing it daily and no allergies from it. I highly recommend especially if you have fairer skin otherwise it may leave a cast .

Excellent mineral sunscreen with minimal white cast.
Style: SPF 50
This is one of the healthier sunscreens I’ve found so far. You’re not likely going to find a mineral sunscreen that doesn’t leave some white cast. However, this one rubs in pretty good with minimal cast. You can dab on and rub in fairly easily… as long as you don’t use too much the white cast should be minimal. I am not sure how well this would work on darker skin tones. My arms are a medium skin tone… my legs are more of a light-medium tone. I prefer mineral sunscreens, and this is the best one I found so far and compatible to Supergoop mineral play. If you liked that one, you would likely enjoy this Coola one too.

Would not recommend
Style: SPF 50
I literally never write reviews but felt compelled to write one for this sunscreen because I was very caught off guard by all the positive reviews. This sunscreen leaves the most insane white sheen that never soaks in and gets on EVERYTHING. I put this on and drove to the beach and had sunscreen on my car seat, the steering wheel, the center console, the door, EVERYWHERE! It took forever to clean up and was such a hassle and that was after having let the sunscreen soak into my skin for an hour. Also the sunscreen is really thick and difficult to spread and makes you look ghostly white. Plus, the sunscreen has a really odd odor that reminded me of play dough? That might not be a negative thing for everyone but I found it unpleasant. There are definitely better mineral sunscreens out there. For the price I expected a much better product.

Sticky and white
Style: SPF 50
The sunscreen has a very sticky and thick texture. It will keep you from getting sunburnt, but it will also leave you with a white color.
