520    "Gripping narrative non-fiction with STEM and social 
       justice themes that proves cities can be surprisingly wild
       places--and why understanding urban nature matters. What 
       can city bees tell us about climate change? How are we 
       changing coyote behavior? And what the heck is a science 
       bike? Featuring the work of a diverse group of eleven 
       scientists--herself included!--Dr. Cylita Guy shows how 
       studying urban wildlife can help us make cities around the
       world healthier for all of their inhabitants. In the 
       process, Guy reveals how social injustices like racism can
       affect not only how scientists study city wildlife, but 
       also where urban critters are likelier to thrive. Sidebars
       include intriguing animal facts and the often-wacky tools 
       used by urban ecologists, from a ratmobile to a bug 
       vacuum. Cornelia Li's engaging illustrations bring the 
       scientists' fieldwork adventures to life, while urban 
       ecology challenges encourage readers to look for signs of 
       wildlife in their own neighborhoods."--|cProvided by
