Animal Reactions to UFOs
Author: Linda Zimmermann
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781937174033
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 118
Book Description
The reactions of animals during UFO sightings may provide clues to the nature of the phenomenon and how to conduct better research. So many sightings occur because the witness was alerted by a dog barking, or barnyard animals making sounds of alarm, but that aspect is usually just a brief mention in reports. Taking a deeper look, we find that all types of animals, from all around the world, share similar experiences to UFOs. Animals have keen senses and don't have an imagination, so their reactions prove that something real is happening. What can we learn from these animal witnesses?

The Zoologist's Guide to the Galaxy

Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1984881981
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
A wildly fun and scientifically sound exploration of what alien life must be like Scientists are confident that life exists elsewhere in the universe. Yet rather than taking a realistic approach to what aliens might be like, we imagine that life on other planets is the stuff of science fiction. The time has come to abandon our fantasies of space invaders and movie monsters and place our expectations on solid scientific footing. Using his own expert understanding of life on Earth and Darwin's theory of evolution--which applies throughout the universe--Cambridge zoologist Dr. Arik Kershenbaum explains what alien life must be like: how these creatures will move, socialize, and communicate. Might there be an alien planet with supersonic animals? A moon where creatures have a language composed of smells? Will aliens scream with fear, act honestly, or have technology? The Zoologist's Guide to the Galaxy answers these questions using the latest science to tell the story of how life really works, on Earth and in space.

Life on Planet Earth is not weirder than we imagine. It's weirder than we are capable of imagining. And we're all in it together: humans, blue whales, rats, birds of paradise, ridiculous numbers of beetles, molluscs the size of a bus, the sexual gladiators of slugs, bdelloid rotifers who haven't had sex for millions of years and creatures called water bears: you can boil them, freeze them and fire them off into space without killing them.
