BALEINES ET PHOQUES - BIOLOGIE ET ÉCOLOGIE

⚠️ This book is written in French.

Few people can claim to know whales and seals as well as Pierre-Henry Fontaine. His secret is his passion for these marine mammals. To understand it, picture the author buried up to his waist inside a stranded blue whale, for the sole purpose of finding and showing you its aorta — and doing so with unmatched delight! His commitment to making science accessible runs through this book, which gives a full picture of these mysterious animals: evolution and adaptation, behaviour, relationships with humans, and more.

This new version of his book — considerably enriched and expanded with his knowledge of seals — is full of recent and previously unpublished experiences and information, accompanied by numerous diagrams and illustrations. Every reader, from novice to scientist, will enjoy deepening their knowledge of these impressive cousins, at once close and distant.
