Die Wanderungen von Tieren werden seit der Antike erforscht, diskutiert, mystifiziert und künstlerisch reflektiert. Bei der Hinwendung zu migrierenden Tieren geht es in vielen Fällen aber nicht allein um die Frage, wie und warum bestimmte Tierarten zwischen verschiedenen Habitaten wandern. Vielmehr berührt die Beschäftigung mit Tieren auf Wanderschaft auch Themen, die der kulturwissenschaftlichen Exil- und Migrationsforschung nahestehen. Tiere können krisenhaft von Vertreibungen betroffen und gezwungen sein, neue Lebensräume aufzusuchen. Einige Tiere fliehen indes auch mit Menschen und richten sich mit ihnen im Exil ein. Tierliche Migration betrifft aber auch die Fälle, in denen (tote) Tiere über räumliche und imaginäre Grenzen hinweg transportiert und außerhalb ihres bisherigen Lebensraums angesiedelt und funktionalisiert werden. Nicht zuletzt wird mit Tierwanderungen auf vielfältige Art und Weise Politik gemacht: Vorstellungen von 'Heimat' und 'Exotik', 'Identität' und 'Indigenität' werden ausgehend von tierlicher Migration entwickelt; die Darstellung von 'einheimischen' und 'invasiven' Arten wiederum ist häufig von Rassismen und xenophoben Rhetoriken durchzogen. Die Beiträge der neuen Ausgabe von Tierstudien widmen sich ausgehend von einem weiten Migrationsbegriff diesen komplexen Zusammenhängen. Sie beleuchten die Ursachen, Formen und Effekte tierlicher Migration und analysieren die Narrative und ästhetischen Modelle, die Tiere und Migration miteinander in Beziehung setzen. Das Spektrum der Beiträge ist dabei disziplinär ebenso breit gefächert wie der zeitliche Kontext: Von theologischen Reflexionen zu Tierwanderungen in der Bibel über sozialwissenschaftliche Blickpunkte auf den transnationalen Auslandstierschutz bis hin zu kunst- und literaturwissenschaftlichen Beiträgen zu Tiermigration bei Doug Aitken und Anna Seghers können die Leser*innen einen fundierten Einblick in die speziesübergreifenden Verflechtungen und Herausforderungen erhalten, die sich mit dem Thema Tiere und Migration verbinden.

Animal Migration, Orientation, and Navigation presents the various aspects of animal migration, including the evolution of migration, climatic and meteorological influences, and bioenergetics. This book discusses the physiological control, sensory systems, orientation and navigation, and biological clocks and phenology aspects of animal migration. Organized into five chapters, this book begins with an overview of the migration strategies of animals in the context of a space continuum. This text then explains the influence of short- and long-term climatic cycles on the spectrum of migratory patterns in nature. Other chapters consider the energetic requirements of different migration strategies and the energy stores of the migrants. This book discusses as well the physiological basis of animal migration, with emphasis on endocrinal findings on the timing and energetic aspects of different migration strategies. The final chapter deals with the mechanisms used in direction finding by migrating animals. This book is a valuable resource for biologists and ecologists.

This spectacular guide explores the mysteries of animal migration over land, in the oceans, and through the air. Lavishly illustrated with two hundred photographs and maps, Animal Migration highlights specific conservation issues while tracing the routes of some one hundred species of animal with examples on every continent. Ben Hoare explains how animals migrate, either as parts of mass migration or in individual journeys, and describes in fascinating detail their navigation, reproduction, and feeding strategies. He also brings to life migrations that stand out for their extraordinary challenges such as those that take animals unthinkable distances across hostile or barren territory. Designed for easy browsing or in-depth study, Animal Migration concludes with a supplementary catalog of migrants, adding the routes of an additional two hundred animals, and is an invaluable addition to any nature lover's library.

Despite the wealth of natural historical research conducted on migration over decades, there is still a dearth of hypothesis-driven studies that fully integrate theory and empirical analyses to understand the causes and consequences of migration, and a taxonomic bias towards birds in much migration research. This book takes a comparative, integrated view of animal migration, linking evolution with ecology and management, theory with empirical research, and embracing all the major migratory taxa (including human pastoralists). The scope extends beyond the target organism to consider the ecosystem-level dynamics of migration. The emphasis is on exciting new research avenues that are now opening up, whether due to advances in our understanding of migration as a biological phenomenon or through the availability of a range of new technologies. Broad themes that emerge include integrating migration into the broad spectrum of movement behaviour, the need for a comparative and cross-taxonomic approach that considers migration at a range of temporal and spatial scales, and examination of the key roles of resource uncertainty and spatial heterogeneity in driving migratory behaviour. The book identifies the potential for new tools to revolutionise the study of migration, including satellite-tracking technology, genomics, and modelling - all of which are linked to increasing computing power. We are now on the verge of a breakthrough in migration research, which is crucial given the multiple threats that face the conservation of migration as a phenomenon, including climate change.

Migration is one of the most fascinating and dramatic of all animal behaviors. Historically, however, the study of migration has been fragmented, with ornithologists, entomologists, and marine biologists paying little attention to work outside their own fields. This treatment of the subject shows how comparisons across taxa can in fact illuminate migratory life cycles and the relation of migration to other movements. The book thus takes an integrated ecological perspective, focusing on migration as a biological phenomenon. The work is divided into four parts, each with a brief introductory section. Part I defines migration, gives examples, and places migration in the spectrum of movement behaviors, concluding with a chapter on methods for its study. Part II focuses on proximate mechanisms, including physiology and morphology (and the constraints associated with them), the interactions between migration and wind and current patterns, and the various orientation and navigation mechanisms by which migrants find their way about. Part III on the evolution of migratory life histories addresses the evolutionary and ecological basis for migration and the roles of migration not only in the lives of organisms, but also in the ecological communities in which they live. Part IV is devoted to a brief consideration of migration and its relation to pest management and conservation. As a major contribution to a vital subject, this work will be valued by all researchers and students in the field of animal behavior, ecology, and zoology.

New edition, prepared with a bio-bibliographical account of Hehn and a survay of the research into Indo-European prehistory by James P. Mallory. It was Hehn who for the first time combined the tools of comparative linguistics and the direct historical approach in order to discover the origins of domesticated animals and cultivated plants in the ancient world, tracing their diffusion from one culture to another. Hehn abandoned his contemporaries'often idealized and nationalistic image of the ancient Indo-Europeans, seeking instead to reconstruct early Indo-European society in agreement with the ethnological research of his day.

E. GWINNER! The phenomenon of bird migration with its large scale dimensions has attracted the attention of naturalists for centuries. Worldwide billions of birds leave their breeding grounds every autumn to migrate to areas with seasonally more favor able conditions. Many of these migrants travel only over a few hundred kilo meters but others cover distances equivalent to the circumference of the earth. Among these long-distance migrants are several billion birds that invade Africa every autumn from their West and Central Palaearctic breeding areas. In the Americas and in Asia the scope of bird migration is of a similar magnitude. Just as impressive as the numbers of birds are their achievements. They have to cope with the enormous energetic costs of long-distance flying. particularly while crossing oceans and deserts that do not allow replenishment of depleted fat reserves. They have to appropriately time the onset and end of migrations. both on a daily and annual basis. And finally. they have to orient their migratory movements in space to reach their species- or population-specific wintering and breeding grounds, irrespective of the variable climatic conditions along their migratory routes.
