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
